Alliance for Justice Praises Letter from 52 Members of Congress Calling for Investigation of Clarence Thomas' Disclosure Lapses | Alliance for Justice

The ideologically tendentious Clarence Thomas wears his politics on his sleeve.  He copiously lauds his Tea Party wife, speaks of grave threats to the Constitution in ways that suggest he is certain to find a way to vote to gut the Affordable Care Act.   They are reasons why progressives intensely dislike his decisions.  But such ideological commitments are not grounds for recusal.   Justice Thomas does seem vulnerable, however for failure to make honest disclosures about his wife's income.  It is a story that won't die.  Now 52 Democratic Members of Congress have appealed to the Chief Justice. - GWC
