Clarence Thomas is an unethical scumbag and should step down
Clarence Thomas is falling into a deep, deep ethical hole, deeper even than the one he dropped into when he failed to disclose his wife's income for 20 years. As more facts come to light, it's obvious he failed to disclose quite a bit, including the $100,000 Citizens United spent on his behalf in 1991 to support his nomination. That would be an in-kind contribution which should have been disclosed as such.

1. He should be impeached so he loses his pension
and so that Citizens United can be revisited

2. Public outcry should force him to resign.
The Repuke controlled House will never impeach him. It will have to come from the people's outrage. Write LTTE. Call radio talk shows. Demand the Sunday talk shows ask every guest Rep and Dem what they think should be done.

Rachel and all the others at MSNBC are doing a good job of it. Everyone has to be made aware of the depth of corruption at SCOTUS. (Fat Tony included.)

4. Since the House must initiate an impeachment, he will not be impeached...
so we are left hoping he has enough ethics to step down when everyone knows he is an unethical immoral asshole.
