Thomas: Don’t question the government

Addressing an audience at the University of Florida law school, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas told a group of future lawyers that asking too many questions can “run the risk in our society of undermining institutions that we need to preserve our liberties.”

That’s right. The man whose job is to question and probe the founding document of our nation told a group of people who will need to question and probe that document and others that define the law of land, that to criticize the government and U.S. Supreme Court “[borders] on being irresponsible.”

Yes, Clarence “I Just Helped Overturn Eight Previous Supreme Court Rulings” Thomas said that. To lawyers.

Are we sure we want Supreme Court Justices to be lifetime appointees? Or did we just destroy America by asking that?
