The entire Supreme court ditched one of Clinton's SOTU's and they missed one of Reagan's too. Hillary had other plans last night and wasn't there either. Things happen you know...it's not always a sign of disrespect...unlike the title OP chose for this thread.

I've never seen so many from the court at a SOTU.

I don't think Souter ever attended a SOTU.

Did you consider, it really isn't a good idea for all justices to be at the same place at the same time, just like the Pres and VP do not fly together and did you consider, there were other missing as well? I am not sure what point you are trying to make, are you?

He was a horrible choice since he hardly ever gives independent decisions & never even asks questions during court hearings. Thomas is considered a sub-par justice & a very poor judge regardless of his race.

By whom is he considered a sub-par justice? OH, and when you say "out of touch with the black community" is this being in touch the duty of a supreme court judge? I thought it was to interpret and enforce the laws of our country. Silly me...

Wow, that's racist. I believe he only has to be in touch with Americans, not just the black community.

Where is your proof/data taht he's a horrible choice, is sub-par and a poor judge. Is that your opinion, or are you parroting media matters?

Hogwash. He is poison to the LEFT, because he is a black conservative man.
