It would be perfectly proper to impeach Clarence Thomas for
willful factual deception during his confirmation hearing.

I think that will happen about a week after G W Bush starts his life sentence in the Hague.

(And two weeks after Snooki wins the Nobel prize for literature.)

But it would be proper if facts came to light casting new doubt on his testimony.

1. I don't care if it's perfectly proper
I'd support any means to impeach that moronic shill.

4. It would be proper
But won't happen. Remember we live in a country where spreading hate, fear and bigotry will net one a 2 million dollar contract and fame in the form of 24 hours of continuous press coverage.

5. I don't disagree on the propriety or the conditions you made.
The best that would happen is the stink drives him to resign. But, seriously, a tell all book by a girl friend will not convince one Democrat to investigate possible perjury. Now, if this were written about a liberal justice, every Republican in the House and Senate would be salivating to investigate and drag a justice through the muck in hopes of forcing a resignation.

10. he should never have been confirmed
this is a national disgrace...and what is wrong with that woman waiting 19 years? She allowed Anita Hill to be vilified both in the hearings and the media.

11. I'm having a great daydream:
Every week, another woman comes forward with scenarios she witnessed of CT exhibiting harassing behavior in the workplace. There would be a single theme running through all the stories of his obsession with women and their bodies and treating them as sex objects and disrespecting them. I love it.
