Person of the Day: Clarence Thomas

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas ethical conduct is under a cloud. Aside from this knee-jerk ultra-Right  judge being the most incurious of jurists (he hasn’t asked a question of a litigant in years!) he is also under suspicion of some ethical code violations which, if true, could be disqualifiers. He is suspected of having failed to report at least $1.6 million that his wife, Ginni, had earned since 1997; that he might have failed to report gifts from rich supporters; and that he inappropriately solicited donations for favored non-profits.

The Dept. of Justice should be investigating this now. Signing this PFAW petition will give this effort a push.
