Justice Thomas Speaks – In Court

Justice Clarence Thomas broke a seven year silence in the Supreme Court during oral arguments. His comments came during a lighthearted exchange over whether a defense attorney was qualified to take part in a death penalty case. His comments made his colleagues laugh. But no one seems sure what he meant by “Well – he did not –“



What’s That, Yer Honor?

Justice Thomas broke his silence
After seven quiet years;
Everyone inside the courtroom
Was, well, let’s just say ‘all ears.’

No one’s sure just what he meant;
On Earth or up in Heaven;
Stay tuned; but please realize,
It may take another seven.
