Justice Thomas discussed the kinds of questions asked during the recent Justice hearing.
Justice Thomas spoke out and said, “I think what deserves all of our legitimacy is …we do our jobs honestly. We do it with integrity, we do it with an ethical foundation. A moral foundation – we follow the law. We live up to the oaths that we take.”
Brilliantly, Justice Thomas told us what the Supreme Court does, he added, “And I mean brick by brick – we build the structure and fabric of a society.”
Specifically, he noted then paused and said, “Not one of us – can build it up or tear it down – by ourselves.”
Justice Thomas then turns his attention to the word “Honorable” and he asked American’s to consider that word while applying it to society in general. (VIDEO BELOW.)
He then said something SO funny the crowd erupted in laughter!
He said, “If we could use that word about MORE people who are in public life. People who actually ask the question – at confirmation hearings – instead of ‘SPARTACUS’!”
The audience LAUGHS OUT LOUD! Moreover, Justice Thomas took a moment to grin himself!
Soon – you could hear hearty clapping as the room obviously agreed with the sentiment that grandstanding by Booker knocks down the honor of the confirmation hearings. (VIDEO BELOW.)
