Justice's wife launches 'tea party' group

'Tea party' activists filter into GOP at ground level
By Kathleen Hennessey
March 14, 2010

As Virginia Thomas tells it in her soft-spoken, Midwestern cadence, the
story of her involvement in the "tea party" movement is the tale of an
average citizen in action.

"I am an ordinary citizen from Omaha, Neb., who just may have the chance to
preserve liberty along with you and other people like you," she said at a
recent panel discussion with tea party leaders in Washington. Thomas went on
to count herself among those energized into action by President Obama's
"hard-left agenda."

But Thomas is no ordinary activist.

She is the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, and she has
launched a tea-party-linked group that could test the traditional notions of
political impartiality for the court.

In January, Virginia Thomas created Liberty Central Inc., a nonprofit
lobbying group whose website will organize activism around a set of
conservative "core principles," she said.

The group plans to issue score cards for Congress members and be involved in
the November election, although Thomas would not specify how. She said it
would accept donations from various sources -- including corporations -- as
allowed under campaign finance rules recently loosened by the Supreme Court.

"I adore all the new citizen patriots who are rising up across this
country," Thomas, who goes by Ginni, said on the panel at the Conservative
Political Action Conference. "I have felt called to the front lines with
you, with my fellow citizens, to preserve what made America great."

The move by Virginia Thomas, 52, into the front lines of politics stands in
marked contrast to the rarefied culture of the nation's highest court, which
normally prizes the appearance of nonpartisanship and a distance from the
fisticuffs of the politics of the day.

Justice Thomas, 61, recently expressed sensitivity to such concerns, telling
law students in Florida that he doesn't attend the State of the Union
because it is "so partisan." Thomas, who was nominated by President George
H.W. Bush, has been a reliable conservative vote since he joined the court
in 1991.

Experts say Virginia Thomas' work doesn't violate ethical rules for judges.
But Liberty Central could give rise to conflicts of interest for her
husband, they said, as it tests the norms for judicial spouses. The couple
have been married since 1987.


[...]

But it would be up to Justice Thomas to decide whether to recuse himself. He
could not be reached for comment.

As a 501(c)(4) nonprofit, Liberty Central can raise unlimited amounts of
corporate money and largely avoid disclosing its donors.

Because of a recent Supreme Court decision, Citizens United vs. Federal
Election Commission, the group may also spend corporate money freely to
advocate for or against candidates for office.

Justice DOLLA DOLLA DOLLA Thomas was part of the 5-4 majority in that case.


THEY'RE ALL HYPOCRITES AND FIENDS. THE GOP HATES THE USA.
