THOUGHTS THAT MATTER – AT 11:08 A.M. ET:  Associate Justice of the Supreme Court Clarence Thomas appeared on Laura Ingraham's new Fox show, and, as usual with him, said some things worth noting.  From lifezette.com: 

Ingraham asked Thomas about what he said in the fall of 1991, when Democrats brought a witness, Anita Hill, before the Senate Judiciary Committee to accuse him of sexual harassment. Ingraham played the footage.

"No job is worth what I have been through," said Thomas in 1991. "No job."

Yet Thomas won confirmation, and as a conservative, helped shape law for America. Thomas told Ingraham the struggle of veterans help him see it was indeed worth it.

"I think we are called to do certain things," said Thomas. "When we do Wounded Warriors events or ... Wreaths Across America, what do you tell the widows, the families of the fallen? That you were too afraid to go through a little bit of uncertainty, a little bit of difficulty, to do a job like this? When they actually were in harm's way? What do you tell the young man who is a double amputee, because of war? That you were afraid to go through that? I don't think anyone would choose to go through unpleasantness, but if it has to be that, to do what is right, then so be it."

COMMENT:  Wonderful words from a great man, who has always carried himself with dignity and lack of anger.  He towers above his critics. which have always included the phonies and frauds of Hollywood.

Read the rest of the piece.  It's worth it.
