"Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas argued, in an interview aired by C-SPAN, that President Obama was elected because he had the approval of “elites and the media.” Those who don’t fit the “prescribed” mold of “what to expect from a black person,” he said, are torn apart by the media.
Thomas said he did expect that the country would have a black president during his lifetime. “I always knew is that it would have to be a black president who was approved by the elites and the media because anybody they didn’t agree with, they would take apart,” he contended when speaking at a panel at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh last month.
“You pick your person,” he added. “Any black person who says something that is not the prescribed things that they expect from a black person will be picked apart.”
“There is a price to pay,” Thomas said, noting that he’d assumed a black president would be one the media agreed with." [Source]
Stephen must have been doing too much pillow talking with his extreme right wing wife. People like Ginni and Stephen tend to live in an alternate reality. It's a world dominated by FOX, Breitbart NEWS, and like minded people. Stephen has a lot of nerve.He should be kissing the ass of the wimpy media every day of his life for not aggressively going after a potential scandal that might have brought him down.
Memo to the Judge: you are a member of the "elite" class in this country. The coalition of brown people,poor people, and progressives who voted for president Obama did not need the media -or anyone else- to vote for him. His stated policies at the time were in sync with what the people who voted for him thought would benefit them.
Someone should tell the Judge that's it's not just the people in the media who do not agree with him. The millions of people who voted for Obama (including 90% of Negroes in America) do not agree with him, either.
"You pick your person". Wrong again! The American people picked their person. He was elected by a popular vote. He was not a political appointment that was allowed to stand because a room full of sexist men did not believe a woman of color.

In cased you wondered; I'm a "light hue Cuban." (chuckles) If it really matters in this forum I enjoy discussing in.
It is harder to be a Black Republican today than to have been a Black Panther a generation ago.
Todays rebels, the real field negros, are those who left the plantation.
Clarence Thomas has been hated and denigrated by the controlling liberal elite ever since he was nominated for the Supreme Court, for no reason other than refusing to say the things they mandate a black person should say.
"How many generations are we until everyone sees past the color of our skin?"
When it stops paying so well to be anything but white.
I think if Thomas had been light-skinned, you would have been a different kinda negro.

"Light hued"? I thought you said you were "white"?
Obviously, you can claim whatever race you choose. But IMHO, NO ONE with roots in Cuba is "white" unless their ancestors immigrated there recently from Europe.
And by recently, I mean you're first generation Cuban from an European/Caucasian immigrant family.

My Cuban birth certificate state's I’m "caucásico." My maternal great grandmother is Taino. In this country I'm considered Hispanic." Light Hued is what a recent Cuban acquaintance called me on this forum it’s all water under the bridge and I have a great respect for her because of her patience.
However of all the labels that are affixed to me with/without choice; the one I'm most proud of is "patient father" of a 17 year old son and 20 year old daughter.

Anon@7:07pm, good look on your part. That has been corrected.TY.
Anon Thanks. Godspeed.
You know,
I think his delusional self-hating ass thought that Black folks would ‘ come around’.
Instead, we continue to give his Scalia bootlicking ass the middle finger and tell him to go somewhere and sit down, because we don’t give two shyts about his cooning ass.
He’s jealous.
Like so many of those right-wing Black folk. I told y’all awhile ago – Barack Obama came along and just destroyed so many of them.
They spent their lives selling out the community, disrespecting the community, lying on the community, finding whatever WHITE WOMAN (yeah, I said it) that they could find.
And, here comes Barack Obama….
Who does the OPPOSITE of everything they’ve done.
Not only does he succeed…he’s elected PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
It chafes their sellout souls.
Barack Obama comes home to Michelle LaVaughn Robinson every night.
And who does Unca Clarence go home to?
Yeah….
BWA HA HA HA HA HA HA AH HA
Lil Wayne just lost his endorsement from PepsiCo. I hope that hurts him really bad. The dude should drop a blank check off to the family of Emmett Till after the callous use of his name. I don't condone violence usually but LiL Wayne needs a good kick in the ass.
"Barack Obama comes home to Michelle LaVaughn Robinson every night."
Good thing he's gay...
BWA HA HA HA HA HA HA AH HA
Thomas' projection of his own tokenish rise onto the President is pure defensive posturing. Cuz yeah, in Tbagistan, where tokanage (a la Clarence) is a given, and mere incompetence no bar to high aspirations, that's the only explanation for a President Obama. It couldn't be the generational sacrifice of grandparents who lived smaller lives in order to educate their grand-children at the best schools, and a kid smart enough to springboard from that lucky start to the ultimate "write your own ticket" token of American meritocratic academic achievement: President of the Harvard Law Review. For the whole Republiklan, Thomas included, tokanage is the only explanation for black American success.

Look at Queen cheering on that racist Whitey taking his chance to tear into a ni**er's ass.
Clarence Thomas got his shot at the Supreme Court because he was black, but he had made his way in the world to get to that point.
Barack Obama has been handed every honor he ever got, including President of the Harvard Law Review. He is where he is because he says the things his white liberal masters want him to say.
And guess what? Obama isn't even black.
The way they treat Thomas or any other black who strays off their plantation tells you all you need to know about how "liberals" really feel about you.
Fuck Whitey.
Were it not for Thurgood Marshall having to step down, would the GOP had considered Thomas to fill the seat of a white justice?
You klanners live in a bubble of your own making, one in which the extremely few (& always pecuniarily interested) outliers in black opinion who parrot the klan version of black development are heroically far-sighted prophets brave enough to turn their backs on the near unanimous opinions of all other black people of all classes and callings. But if you listen carefully to your klanner Toms & Thomases when you hear them ostensibly celebrating their "outsider-ness" you can't help but hear a lament for their loss of black credibility in their single-minded quest for white credibility. Self-hatred is like that; when your enemy is you, your entire life is a civil-war of self-inflicted wounds with no quarter.
Clarence definitely has some issues. He is arguably one of the most powerful men on the planet who can influence millions of lives but all I hear from him is bitterness and jealousy. He would be a hero if he just talked about his life and how he got to where he is but instead we get the self pity and victim role we come to expect of conservatives. One thing about the President is he is an inspiring figure while Clarence is not. Clarence has so much potential and can do so much good but he seems to want to spend the rest of his life having a pity party. My advice would be to watch the episode of In Living Color in which they depict him after his appointment but he probably watches The Smothers Brothers. Sad.
You do know Clarence got into Holy Cross on an AA scholarship right? You also know Reagan hired him with no experience into a government job? So let me get this straight, when someone is conservative AA is ok and it's ok to get hired without being qualified? Methinks you need to do a bit more research about CT before you come here singing his praises. IOKIYAR
"The American people picked their person. He was elected by a popular vote."
If you really believe that 'the people' come to their decision of who to vote for with no influence from the media you must be very naive.
I live in UK and it is a proven fact that we get the leader who the majority of the media have been pushing for, and as the majority of the media is in the control of a certain tribe from the Middle East that means for a very long time now we have had Leaders who are pro Israel, anti Palestinian.
Even the Leader of the so called Opposition party has been wagging his tail to the question "are you a Zionist.
My observations on US politics is that 'the people' were offered 2 choices in the last two Presidentialelections, a pro Israel contender or a pro Israel contender !
Shhhh, Pilot X, there u go with facts again. Stop ruining the wingnuts Sunday.
"Honestly, I don't know why anyone of color would want to be called white, but to each his own."
Where are you from? You must not be from America because-given a choice- everyone would rather be White in America. Life is 100% better in America if you are White.
Dear Mr Field, I see your good friends in Israel hit Syria today for no good reason. Happy Sunday. I know you are thrilled.

BTW, when a person's skin is brown and they insist on being called White, they just look foolish, IMHO.

Think about this, genius: Saddam Hussein killed millions of his fellow country men, but that was no reason for you not to lose your shit over "shock and awe".
But it's different when your hero does it.
The last thing we need right now, after 11 years in Afghanistan and Iraq and the disaster of Libya is another war, especially one that will lead to yet another Islamist country.
And yet I am sure you supported W's phony war. The difference is, my wingnut friend, there was not an all out civil war raging in Iraq when your friend W invaded.
Those refugees leaving Syria have to go somewhere. Would some of your conservative friends be willing to have some of their church members sponsor them to come here?
Those who don’t fit the “prescribed” mold of “what to expect from a black person,” he said, are torn apart by the media.” – Clarence Stephen Thomas
Huh, …. Stephen Thomas sure has a lot of nerves to say something of this sort. He knows darn well that It has nothing to do with Pres. ObomBer being black. It’s not that simple. It has a whole lot more to do with who the corporate media can control through pressure tactics.
If the political black person support the interests of the elite, he’s advance and given a pass. If the political black person attempts to be fair minded to everyone, he’s immediately abandoned and then torn apart by the media.

First off thanks for demonstrating that racism is alive and well in conservative circles because how could any blah person ever be as qualified as a superior white such as yourself. Secondly, I do not hate C.T. in fact I wish him success and a long tenure as a SCJ but I (and many others) dislike his self pitying and typical conservative victimhood narrative. He got a law degree from a prestigious university but then put a $.15 cent sticker on his diploma because that's what he thinks it's worth???????????? Um, no one forced him to go there and it also led him to meet the Attorney Danforth who catapulted his career. He is just a bitter and ungrateful man and no one likes that.
Lastly if liberalism is a mental disorder conservativism is beyond such because doofuses such as yourself wonder why so many of us don't want to associate ourselves with such racism and join your little klan. SMGDH
"He is just a bitter and ungrateful man and no one likes that."

I love this blog because Blacks and Whites are keeping it real. I knew racism and victimization of Blacks would multiply in 2008 "IF" Obama were elected President.
But holy shit, he was re-elected in 2012. How much suffering can Negroes take from Whites? Hell, we barely made it out of slavery. Now we have got to be exhausted from being shoved down the Obama rabbit hole. This is really fucked.
Thank you for announcing that there will NEVER be another Black President in America again. I agree. Whew! Now maybe Negroes can get some rest.
"I can think of no bigger, well-known example of self-loathing due to his physical features, than CT. And he, like other famous Black conservatives, is VERY jealous that a Black Demo made it to the White House before ANY of them did."
CT has no reason to be jealous because his wife is White. His features might not be that great but he DID end up with a ww in his bed for life. There is no way Obama could attract a ww.
Hmmmm. I wonder 'how' CT attracted her? Must be his irresistible smile and silver tongue. Yeah, that's it. Those Repubs are the best. Whatever they are lacking they make up in something else. Poor Liberals...they just can't stop the Mac-GOP train.
anon 4:21p--brilliantly researched and analyzed! Beautiful, just beautiful.
Great observation of 'CT facts'. Those Leftist Dem fools and their FN Negroes can't refute such clear non-arguable 'facts'.
Of course, being Dems and fools with their HN FN Negroes, they will find a way to bullshit because that's 'who' they are..."full of shit". They can't help who they are. Someone made them that way. And I can assure you GOD did not make them.
Read Barack's autobiography and then clarence's and tell me who is the ungrateful one.
Conservatism is astoundingly obtuse and ignorant.
More proof conservatives are obtuse. The claim that Barack is undeserving and was handed everything a la AA but they ignore the fact that 2 of the last 3 GOP presidential nominees not only had things handed to them on a silver platter but has silver spoons firmly implanted in their mouths. GWB by all accounts would not have been accepted to Yale had his daddy not attended. Another truly unremarkable student John McCain not only got into the Naval Academy when he should not have he went to flight training and got jets, two things his accomplishments did not warrant. Anyhoo we know how insane conservatives are when they want to investigate a guy born in the U.S. When their own guy was born in Panama. And this fool says liberalism is a mental disorder? Well, like everything else in the minds of conservatives, they have it backwards.

Why are we comparing Barack to Clarence anyway? B could be th emost ungrateful sob to grace the green earth but that does nothing to dispute the fact that Clarence Thomas is ungrateful for the opportunities afforded to him and that makes him unappealing to many people but he blames us for accusing him of escaping from some imagined "plantation". Typical conservative he is, he creates a strawman to explain why people abhor him without asking said people why they dislike him. Of course he's an innocent victim of the liberal elite.

Do we really want to live in a society that doesn't acknowledge our ethnicities or differences? The fault I see in the logic is that it is possible to be "colorblind" and even if it is possible is this necessarily a good thing? I'm proud of my ethnicity and heritage and why should I give that up and not celebrate it. Instead of trying to position ourselves to get over on one race or another we can all accept a level of equality and still acknowledge ourselves for what we are.

Diversity as a policy does not mean what Noah Webster defined it as, it means less white people.
In fact, any grouping that is 100% black or brown is considered "diverse".
