ORIGINAL: farglebargle Clarance Thomas' failure to disclose his family income of $650,000 from people with business before the US Supreme Court has dishonored the highest court, and he MUST RESIGN TO PRESERVE THE HONOR AND DIGNITY OF THE JUDICIARY. Justice Thomas knew that the box marked NONE next to the phrase "Spouse's Non-Investment Income" should only be checked if his spouse had no non-investment income. What do they mean resign to preserve the judiciaries honour, well, that has already gone and that by finding this person out, so prior to him being found out, the judiciary were already without honour. Will this person's resignation change the thought regarding the US Supreme court, well I don't know about anyone else, but sleaze found in one place might be indicative of more sleaze and that highly likely because where there's power, there is money and where there is brass, there is muck. But for someone to be forced to resign there position, will that really change anything, for now this being revealed there is suspicion and where there is suspicion a former position is eroded and that because the people who were seen to be honourable weren't.
