Justice's wife launches 'tea party' group

Discussing anything with you is like shooting fish in a barrel.

But go ahead - continue to attack Virginia Thomas for exercising the freedom which is available to you as a citizen.

So wait, posting the facts now is "attacking"?

My goodness, my irony meter just broke. And I didn't know I was married to a SCOTUS, does someone mind telling me this development and when it occurred? :confused:
 
Luissa - if that's all you've got, you sure ain't got much.

Just sayin'.

Please provide evidence that being married to a Supreme Court Justice voids the spouse of his or her rights of citizenship.

Mind telling me where I said that?

You clearly did not read the article or what I've said, otherwise you wouldn't of posted what you said earlier about the "rule of full disclosure."

Please show where Dogbert said that it did.
 
From this statement you can TOTALLY see where Dogbert is saying Thomas isn't a citizen, and shouldn't have the same rights.
:cuckoo::cuckoo:

And I'm the one who is supposedly projecting. :lol:

Isn't USMB grand sometimes Luissa?

You are criticizing her for engaging in a perfectly legal activity which any other citizen would be able to do.

She said she would adhere to campaign finance laws, which do require full disclosure. Perhaps you should read up on the law.

YOu were for sure projecting, too bad they completely missed your point.:lol::lol:

And it is grand, because we have all these people who can pull a rabbit out of hat.

And we are still missing the point!:lol::lol::lol:
YOu should really talk to your Puppet Master about getting an upgrade.

Where did I criticize her at all?

And where did she say she would adhere to campaign finance laws? SHOW ME WHERE.

All she did was dodge the question.
 
I don't see a problem with what she is doing legally speaking. As to the donation aspect, I see no reason to get corporations involved. The whole purpose of the move is to be a grass roots campaign of "We The People."

That is funny stuff right there.
 
Justice's wife launches 'tea party' group - latimes.com

As Virginia Thomas tells it in her soft-spoken, Midwestern cadence, the story of her involvement in the "tea party" movement is the tale of an average citizen in action.

"I am an ordinary citizen from Omaha, Neb., who just may have the chance to preserve liberty along with you and other people like you," she said at a recent panel discussion with tea party leaders in Washington. Thomas went on to count herself among those energized into action by President Obama's "hard-left agenda."

But Thomas is no ordinary activist.

She is the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, and she has launched a tea-party-linked group that could test the traditional notions of political impartiality for the court.

In January, Virginia Thomas created Liberty Central Inc., a nonprofit lobbying group whose website will organize activism around a set of conservative "core principles," she said.

The group plans to issue score cards for Congress members and be involved in the November election, although Thomas would not specify how. She said it would accept donations from various sources -- including corporations -- as allowed under campaign finance rules recently loosened by the Supreme Court.

"I adore all the new citizen patriots who are rising up across this country," Thomas, who goes by Ginni, said on the panel at the Conservative Political Action Conference. "I have felt called to the front lines with you, with my fellow citizens, to preserve what made America great."

Virginia Thomas has long been a passionate voice for conservative views. She has worked for former Republican Rep. Dick Armey of Texas and for the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank with strong ties to the GOP.

In 2000, while at the Heritage Foundation, she was recruiting staff for a possible George W. Bush administration as her husband was hearing the case that would decide the election. When journalists reported her work, Thomas said she saw no conflict of interest and that she rarely discussed court matters with her husband.

Although Liberty Central is a nonpartisan group, its website shows an affinity for conservative principles. Her biography notes that Thomas is a fan of Rush Limbaugh and Mark Levin, author of "Men in Black: How the Supreme Court is Destroying America."

"She is intrigued by Glenn Beck and listening carefully," the bio says.

As a 501(c)(4) nonprofit, Liberty Central can raise unlimited amounts of corporate money and largely avoid disclosing its donors.

And it all comes full circle.

Thoughts USMB?


my thoughts;

anyone who can't see through the fear tactics, lies and misinformation that are the tools in trade for unAmerican scumbags like beck and limbaugh is a fool.

and considering how many of them there are, all over the country, that makes them DANGEROUS fools.

when these guys take over the country
(and they will.....)
sane and rational people had better take the conservative/christian pledge and declare just how much they "hate liberals, democrats, atheists and progressives"

the all-life-is-precious wackos are cleaning their guns and getting ready to prove just how UNprecious all NONconservative life is to them
