Geee Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Town Hall: “Clarence Thomas’ actions here today — though consistent, though tragic to me — are even more so in light of the bulk of decisions he’s rendered in the name of a judicial vote on the Supreme Court,” Dyson told Bashir. “A symbolic Jew has invited a metaphoric Hitler to commit holocaust and genocide upon his own people,” he concluded. Actually, no. This is too repulsive to just shrug off as typical unhinged moonbattery, which is commonplace on this non-news network. This statement, even by their standards, is totally unacceptable. It should be offensive to everyone -- blacks, Jews, and everyone in between. Dyson regularly says outlandish things; I've even been on with him a few times, but this is just vile. The qualifiers "symbolic" and "metaphorical" are his clumsy attempt to distance himself from the odious analogy he makes: Because he agreed that a 1965 voting law has outlived its legitimate lifespan, Justice Clarence Thomas is akin to a Jewish Nazi collaborator. Dyson -- a Georgetown professor, by the way -- explicitly invokes the holocaust in drawing his comparison. Appalling. Host Martin Bashir responds to this venom with a calm "thank you." Question: Is there anything one could say for which one might get suspended at MSNBC? As a matter of fact, there is. Video at link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
righteousmomma Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Despicable! Did I read that right- the guy is a Georgetown professor? Heard this yesterday and hope Rush addresses it today because he is a huge fan/friend of Justice Thomas. Heard Juan Williams this morning and he seems to think that the tea party caused everything. They hate immigrants. They hate progress. They are fixated on a wall. They are just plain ole angry people. Mary Katherine Hamm challenged him.

Geee Posted June 28, 2013 Author Share Posted June 28, 2013 I believe Justice Thomas actually preformed the ceremony at the marriage before this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
