Yes, the subject was Thomas' intellectual firepower as a member of the Court, which assumes a question about his acumen and capabilities before his appointment to it. I don't have time to research all of these, and so I appeal to the lawyers out there if anyone knows: Since being on the Court, has Justice Thomas written an independent, stand-alone, opinion, and has he done so in opposition to the written views of Alito, Roberts, or Scalia?
Because if I'm wrong, I want to acknowledge it publicly, and will.

It certainly wasn't the issue that was brought up.
The comment I was replying to was Mrs. Mix's assertion that "If I'm not mistaken, he (Justice Thomas) has yet to offer an independent dissent or defense
of a ruling, relying instead, it seems, on the work of Scalia and now Roberts
and Alito." She was indeed mistaken.

Isn't the issue about Thomas's experience BEFORE being nominated to the
SC, and how it compared to Sotomayor's?

Subject: RE: [Vision2020] Reverse
Racism?
Evidence of intellectual deficit re: Justice Thomas?
If I'm not mistaken, he has yet to offer an independent dissent or defense
of a ruling, relying instead, it seems, on the work of Scalia and now
Roberts and Alito. His background was less stellar than Sotomayor's,
and yes, if he used his experiences as a man of color born in relative
poverty to hone his judicial wisdom, he likely would render a richer, more
wise decision. Unfortunately, he spends much of his public presence
in decrying the same programs that benefited him. I also think that
knocking his sister as a "welfare queen" is not only cruel, but also plays
distressingly into the far-right playbook that derides poor women of color
in the same way.
I find it interesting that white men who
howl about affirmative action and entitlement are evidently unable to see
that very many of their compatriots in the halls of power in this country
were the recipients of "special consideration," like "legacy admissions"
to Yale for George W. Bush, that elevated them not because of their
ability and experience, but because of who they were apart from ability
and experience. "Who they were" was defined by their being white
men. For generations, white men have been boosted onto pedestals of
power by other white men, richer, more powerful, older, and more seasoned,
who knew their fathers, worked with their grandfathers, were beholden to
their uncles, or golfed with their brothers. Patronage, legacy
admissions, nepotism, and political pay-back are forms of affirmative
action that have benefited the majority but are now forgotten in the
debate over legitimate social policy and "reverse
racism."
Disclaimers: I'm married to and in love with a white
man, I've raised two young white men to adulthood, and my beloved dad was
a white man. What's wonderful about all of them is that they
recognize that their skin color and gender will generally favor them in
this world, and they recognize that as true injustice, seek to reduce how
much they benefit from it, and work for justice across gender, race, class
and social lines. Further disclaimer: My 20-year-old son is a
UI student, as were both of his grandfathers and five previous generations
of Mixes. He is on a Presidential Scholarship, which he was awarded
on the basis of his GPA and leadership activities in high school, from
which he graduated summa cum laude. He has continued with a 3.8 GPA
while working through his first two years of school. He is a classic
prototype of "legacy admission," but the UI isn't the Ivy League, and
Anthony Mix isn't George W. Bush. And if his Mom weren't so
well-known, and so likely to attract criticism for her views, none of this
would have to be brought up.
But it is what it is, isn't
it?

No. But then again I wasn't asked. Do I believe that
Justice Thomas was the finest legal mind available in all the land in
1991? No. He too was a prime example of affirmative action. I do not think
he is "a dim bulb" however and I suspect your opinion is based on emotion
and political leaning rather than any actual evidence of intellectual
deficit. Plus if back story is the be all and end all of a supreme court
nominee qualification, as so many are making it out to be, then he
has Sotomeyor beat six ways to Sunday. After all, I would hope that a
wise black man with the richness of his experiences, would more often
then not reach a better conclusion than a latina woman who hasn't lived
that life. Surely you agree.

I disagree with you completely. But what I'm really
interested in is this: Did you make the same argument when
Clarence Thomas was nominated? Because if you really want to
showcase an intellectual dim bulb on the Supreme Court, that might be a
good place to look.

Re: [Vision2020] Reverse Racism?
I'm very sorry to be the one to burst your
little bubble but, while the nomination of your 55 year old latina
is unquestionably politically savvy, she is far from the legal
communities most prominent shining light. Her nomination will, no doubt,
score OBL a few short term brownie points with a certain segment of the
electorate but will leave scant impression on American jurisprudence.
While her story is touching and all, you would be hard pressed to find
anyone who honestly believes that she has the intellectual firepower
to make any headway with legal minds the likes of Breyer
or Ginsberg much less Alito, Roberts, or Scalia. She is pretty much
destined to be little more than a liberal "me too." In other words,
affirmative action as it's most commonly practiced.
