Paper not interested in balance on Thomas

Posted September 30, 2023 1:00 am

The Sept. 24 editorial about the indiscretion of Clarence Thomas accepting an invitation to express his personal conservative views at a Koch venue didn't explain the motivation for attacking Thomas by the Biden administration.

The goal of President Biden is to expand the number of Supreme court judges and turn them more liberal. Eliminating Clarence Thomas is one of the failed goals of Joe Biden the first time around when Joe Biden tried to paint him as a sexist during his nomination hearing.

There was no discussion about his rise from sharecropper background to the highest court in the land.

A tremendous achievement. Sandra Day O'Connor expressed her conservative views at ASU, a university educational venue. It's unfortunate that Clarence Thomas didn't do the same.

Keeping a balanced view on what is transpiring in the political or medical world does not seem to be a goal of the editors at the Daily Herald.
