Brandeis Professor Anita Hill on the fight for the White House

[UncleMikeNJ]

Over 20 years, Clarence Thomas' worthiness for the Supreme Court -- and those of Justices Rehnquist, Scalia, O'Connor, Kennedy, Roberts and Alito -- has only diminished. Meanwhile, all Anita Hill has done over 20 years is return to academia and educate young people.

I don't think she'll ever get the apology she is owed.

[david510152025303540]

I forgot how beautiful she was . She is more beautiful now and even more intenteresting to listen to

[jethromayham]

Anita would need a shotgun to ever win against a Silverback, especially when the zoo keepers are Republicans.

[sgtpepper33]

I guess they give you a job teaching at Brandeis as a reward for lying about a conservative judge. Disgusting.

[PrisonerNumber9653]

@sgtpepper33 She didn't lie, and wasn't GIVEN anything, she EARNED a teaching job.

Thomas is the one who was given a job because of his skin color and his radical views. He's horribly unqualified for SCOTUS, but the radical right loves any black who'll parrot their hateful views, and it was no problem to bury his past harrassment.

[jabberwolf]

@PrisonerNumber9653

LOL you are pissed because Clarence WAS VERY qualified , and a HELL of a lot more qualified than Obama's picks experience COMBINED!!!

You're just upset because Clarence rules on Law and not based on skin color which pisses off so many racist black people depending on other blacks to be racist as well.

[PrisonerNumber9653]

@jabberwolf You're on crack. NOBODY can claim Thomas was "very qualified". If he were white he'd not have been anywhere close to the SCOTUS. Saying he's more qualified than Obama's picks proves you've no toehold in reality.

Thomas is the most radical right anti-justice anti-equality member of the court. Saying those who support justice and equality are "racist" is Orwellian double-talk.

[sgtpepper33]

@PrisonerNumber9653 I thought affirmative action was a good thing? Handing out jobs to minorities somehow moves us all toward "progress." Likewise, I could say the same thing about liberals who despise a black person who dare think for themselves. Liberals want blacks to shutup, go without individual thought, and to be robotic voting machines to the Democrat Party. How dare Thomas think for himself. I guess he should have known better. Toe the line or have your reputation ruined.

[PrisonerNumber9653]

@sgtpepper33 Affirmative action is NOT "handing out jobs to minorities". Liberals do NOT "despise a black person who thinks for themselves,' contrary to your racist lies the scumbags who shill for racists like Clarence Thomas are NOT "thinking for themselves."

Liberals DO think for ourselves, jackass. Thomas didn't think for himself, Thomas sold himself. He fights like a demon for EVERYTHING that is bad for black people, because he's about only one black person having a chance at a better life

[sgtpepper33]

@PrisonerNumber9653 Name calling, classy move. Liberals really do hate "uncle toms" that dare rove off the plantation and associate with convservatives. Remember Jesse Jackson saying to Colin Powell "you're not one of us" when he became Sect. of State? And what is this "Thomas doesn't think for himself" talk? HE'S A BLACK CONSERVATIVE. If thats not thinking for himself I don't know what is. He sold himself? Sure, because I'm sure he loves the racist bile that is thrown at him by people like you.

[kwil46]

@PrisonerNumber9653

Never heard of the reverse discrimination suits.Like the white firemen passed over for promotions despite more qualifications and higher scores.Until people stop whining like you they will never get ahead because they always want to be a victim.they always want another to pay for them.They always want gov to be their daddy.Strong black people are everywhere making a better life for themselves by education,hard work,and independence.You bring shame to their efforts

[durgaaa]

@PrisonerNumber9653 --You've got it completely right !

[durgaaa]

@sgtpepper33 --Are you sure you're not getting confused and really meant to say that a guy who bragged about his genitals was given a job on the Supreme Court ?

[sgtpepper33]

@durgaaa Yeah, thats what I meant. A woman who followed her "sexual harrasser" from law firm to law firm and waited about a decade to say anything and doesn't have a fellow "victim" among the hundreds who have worked with him to corroborate anything close to her story in any regard; yeah, it was definetly him that was lying. Thanks for helping me correct the record.

[missVeemack]

@sgtpepper33 Yes you are right he did lie. Just because no one else came forth does not mean a thing. Some people murder one time, some people harrass one time. HE LIED!

[drbayoms]

Don't cry racism now. Remember, THERE IS NO RACISM, remember. Most people these days, see past race. We are a post-racial world. People are not attacked because of race anymore, remember. I believe the Neo-Cons have been saying that bullshit for awhile now, RIGHT? As whites we have used that to brow beat blacks for quite awhile. But of course all that goes out the window when a "schucking and cooning, Uncle Tom has HIS OWN dirt thrown on him in order to, no doubt benefit Dem/Liberals. Ironic?

[Razersun]

She is a terrible human being.

[durgaaa]

@Razersun -- nope, not true. Anita is a fine human being ....but you could make a statement like that about "Long Dong Silver" though.

[cegemon]

Anita Hill is awesome! Thomas is awful!

[scoresby33]

What a piece of garbage. She falsly accuses Thomas of Sexual harrassment for publicity and trying to win money and ruin his reputation. I can't stand gold diggers like this.

[qlaw04]

But good enough to become an associate justice of the United State Supreme Court.

Apart from the fact that you're a liberal and gree with Anita "Shrill" she is an intellectual light weight!

[qlaw04]

ANYBODY can be a law professor!

Yikes!

[madisonhack]

Yeah, like Antoine Scalia.

[DoctorMurky]

She's for Obama. That explains everything.

[masterchief313]

she is a liar and a cheat, she lied about clarence thomas and she will lie about everything else she should be lynched

[PrismConcept]

What is an idiot doing attempting to listen to an intelligent response to selective questions? As for whether she is a liar-personally I doubt she lied about her experience with Justice Thomas, but only the two parties know for sure. Certainly you do not. The final part of your statement is beneath contempt or response.

[fully1975]

blah blah blah blah...Anita Hill a consequence of the willie Lynch syndrome"...Now we can sleep soundly, for out of frozen fear his woman stands guard for us."

[PrismConcept]

Excuse me? What made you think Anita Hill ever indicated she "stands guard for us"? If you are only capable of selective listening, perhaps you should refrain from making broad and incoherent commentary

[ramblinalways]

she was my contracts professor first year at ou law school when all the Thomas shit went down. even before she made the news, she was aloof and unavailable. her exams were physically cut and pasted from previous ones, with all misspellings. crappy professor. I'll never forget the day in class when she said, "If Clarence Thomas is qualified to be a Supreme Court Justice then I should be." She thought it should have been her instead of Thomas, and that is all it was about.

[Astralchik69]

I wonder what she thinks of obamma now that he has chosen joe Biden? Biden incopently ran the clarence thomas hearings in '91.

If Mc'cain choses condi rice, it'll be a land slide.

[lydeppmath]

I also am glad to see her doing well. I still remember how she was dragged into fiasco. She did not ask to be involved in the whole thing and didn't volunteer. This all came back to mind as Senator Beiden was just picked for veep canidateand Hillary was was not.

[cskirk]

Generally speaking, a law professor is an attorney who cannot make it in the real world as an attorney. They are typically liberal. Their ideas do not float in the courts. Thus, they teach law and try to brainwash students with a liberal agenda. I know because I am an attorney and I profess that I could have went law school by correspondence. I went to class everyday and was spoonfed liberal ideals.

[redn40]

Looks like the only "law school" you ever attended was 24/7 am radio talk show propaganda.

[thyssaliki]

What did University of Phoenix establish a law school? Or does Rush Limbaugh teach Torts? Universities in general are bastions of liberal and progressive thinking. Conservativism is taught by not doing anything. Don't finish high school - you'll be a conservative. Beat your wife - you'll be a conservative. Hate minorities - you'll be a conservative. I'm guessing you didn't particularly take to the 14th Amendment, that bleeding heart liberal Civil War addition to the Constitution. Retard.

[cskirk]

I find it funny that a liberal would use the word "retard'. Your response has so many ways to be attacked. 1st I graduated from high school and Ohio State School of Law ; 2nd I don't hate minorities; 3rd I think that the 14th amendment prohibits slavery. I am not sure want your rant was about but I will keep it civil. I was just relaying my experience in law school. Most professors are liberal. I work in the real world and the professor ideals do not work in the real world.

[madisonhack]

You mean like Antoine Scalia, Professor of Law at U. Of Virginia in 1967? You know...THAT Antoine Scalia?

[cskirk]

He also spent years practicing law at Jones, Day, Reves and Pouge in Cleveland, Ohio. He was in the private sector far more than academia.

[GWPDA]

Good to see Prof. Hill is doing well.

[pippi242]

You go Ms. Hill! Great analysis!

[mrdandrea]

How surprising! The promiscuous Anita Hill is supportive of Obama. No "post-race" society possible with Democrats who continually see things through skin color. It is good to know that there is only one race: the human race. The amount of pigment in one's skin is only a genetic heritage as is the size and shape of one's earlobes.
