> [@gonzomax](#): > > All of a sudden you are sensitive? Everything I read says Thomas is the worst Supreme Court judge ever. He never asks a question of the lawyers presenting a case. He must lack the balls to speak in public and show his incompetence. He votes with Scalia and is a die hard right winger who sides with the powerful . He has little sympathy for the downtrodden and sucks up to the powerful. The Roberts Court is an extension of the right wing power structure and Thomas, a black man , is one of the worst. Some numbers: [Voting Patterns in SCOTUS 1956-2004](http://ella.slis.indiana.edu/~pahook/product/SupremeCourt_1956-2004_pajek.jpg) Scalia and Thomas voted together 67% of the time. High, but not top ten of all time. Breyer and Ginsburg voted together 68% of the time, which unless my math is off, is slightly higher. Warren and Marshall voted together 88% of the time. Now, generally speaking, I like the side that Breyer and Ginsburg, and Warren and Marshall ended up on. But, if you are going to imply that Clarence Thomas in incapable of making a decision without Scalia to guide him, what does that say about either Breyer or Ginsburg, and either Warren or Marshall? --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/scotus-wife-virginia-thomas-asks-anita-hill-to-apologize-wtf/557798)._
