Virginia Thomas Backs Off Debate on the Constitution, Healthcare
"A conservative group headed by the wife of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas says it is not taking a position on the constitutionality of the Democrats' healthcare overhaul, despite a position paper that carried her name.

The latest controversy involving Virginia Thomas appears to have begun when the position paper was posted on the website of Liberty Central, a conservative group that she founded last year. Liberty Central did not issue the paper, the group said in a statement today, but instead was relaying it from another group, the Conservative Action Project."



I found this article while following the connections between the Koch Brothers, Liberty Central, the Tea Bag party and Clarence and Virginial Thomas. It seems as if the connections between these folks is being downplayed in the MSM. Interesting.

The entire article can be found here.

1. To hell with this pasty-faced, clueless, Teabagging slob
She's a distraction. She's irrelevant. To hell with her.

2. With millions of dollars at their disposal to throw at Tea Baggers running for Democratic seats...
I respectfully disagree with your claim that she is irrelevant.

fully expects the HCR to reach the Supreme Court...I say too late, her name is on the position paper already and he should recuse himself when it gets there...

5. Fat chance that would happen
it seems these people are arrogant enough to believe they can rule in their own self interests. Why not, they have gotten away with it many times before.

6. I wonder why she hasn't apologized?
Perhaps she should examine her heart, and pray about it for sure, and figure out why she hasn't apologized yet for that position paper that self-loaded onto her website with her name on it.

Ginny can no doubt appreciate the inescapable logic of the above paragraph.
