Clarence Thomas, one of the most uncompromising jurists to ever serve on the U.S. Supreme Court, has broken his silence marathon ... sort of.
It took a bit of trash talk about Yale Law School graduates from fellow arch-conservative Antonin Scalia to squeeze four words out of the taciturn Thomas, who had not spoken a word during oral arguments before the high court in seven years.
His blurted sentence fragment on Jan. 14 is anti-climatic, to say the least: "Well, he did not ..."
The newest parlor game in Washington must be finishing Thomas' comeback line.
"Well, he did not ...
"... wallow drunk in the gutter outside Harvard Law School like you, Tony."
"Well, he did not ...
"... support Al Gore in the 2000 election case like your Harvard buddies."
"Well, he did not ...
"... kiss up to the president on Obamacare like Roberts did."
Go ahead and play at home. It's fun!
