Clarence Thomas: Obama “approved by the elites” because he says what they “expect from a black person”

• Dana Perino acted as if his analysis was simplistic (miming what Beckel said), but the truth of the matter is that sometimes the most simple of analysis are the most effective. The truth of the matter is that Obama sucks and he wasn't qualified and he is still horrible so Justice Thomas is correct. The ONLY reason he became President is because he is a Black DEMOCRAT. The media loved him and essentially stabbed Hillary in the back in order to get him to be President. He's right. He doesn't need to be complex and complicated with his analysis as to why Obama became elected.

  • Truth always lies in simplicity. Any time a talking head starts about nuances, ramifications, many factors, no simple answer, you know one thing for certain - they are full of schist.

    All answers are simple. Not necessarily easy, but simple. Or as professor Chen of NJIT put it - "thess no eashy way. It shimpuh, but no eashy"

    If it's complicated, it's not an answer. It's a path to a quagmire. And of course most important, it's a path to longevity of tenure for the talking head.

    That's not to say that many situations don't require more than one answer/solution. But they will all be basically simple.

    • Agreed. People who don't want to hear the truth get into complicated mode and it is insane.

    • Occam's razor

      • This is incredibly interesting.

      • Never heard of it. So I searched and found a rather interesting write-up on Wikipedia. I have some work to do now, and get ready for Easter tomorrow (Eastern Orthodox), so not enough time now. But I will get back to that.

        But as I wrote that, I kind of saw a truism in it. It's self evident, almost. Simple means easily applicable principes and applications leading to people actually going ahead and solving their issues. Complex means more reasearch money, therefore, no solutions.

        • Happy Easter!

        • There was this one smart guy back in the olden days who said "If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough." He probably invented the interweb or something, that's how smart he was.

        • Totally agree with that statement.

          And I would add in this case that if you can't come up with a simple solution, you don't understand the subject at hand well enough. Unless there just isn't a solution. Which I guess in itself is the simplest possible answer.

        • A lady said a few years ago that if there is a solution do not fret/be in a hurry, if there is no solution do not fret/be in a hurry. She's right. The first part the problem will resolve itself in time, the second part you can only make things worst if there is no solution to the problem.

• These elites must be racist, homophobe, bigoted zillionaires. Plenty of caviar and champagne to go around and really, really deep pockets with nothing to do but attend a minstrel show and watch the main attraction make a complete and utter fool of himself. So, what else is new?

• Once again Clarence is correct, Prez. Quagmire is George Soros's mouthpiece.

  • More like Soros' bitch.

• Justice Thomas is spot on with this 1. Which means he will be beaten up by the MSM for speaking the truth.

  • After Anita Hill, I doubt he cares about taking a beating.
