It seems only reasonable, therefore, given Mrs. Thomas's implied accusation of perjury against Anita Hill, that the same question be asked of her husband.
Did Clarence Thomas commit perjury to acquire his seat on the Court?The question is hanging in the air, just waiting for a response, whether anyone "important" is asking it or not.
By the way, while researching a separate article, I came across this from David Brock, in an interview with CNN:
CARVILLE: Clarence Thomas, you wrote a book about Anita Hill. Did Clarence Thomas tell the truth under oath?
BROCK: No. When I found out two years later that he had done many of the things that Anita alleged...
CARVILLE: (UNINTELLIGIBLE) children. We have a man on the Supreme Court that lied under oath?
BROCK: That's right.
Brock is a former Movement Conservative activist himself, one who had a central role in both the Bill Clinton Troopergate story and the Anita Hill story. He's extremely well-positioned to know what he's talking about. There's more from David Brock here, just one place of many. And much more in Brock's 2002 book, Blinded by the Right, still a great read.
