Used in a sentence: "Potentially lost in all the political news of late ... a usually silent supreme recently decided to do something he simply hadn't done from the bench -- yes, indeed: He speaks!"
Not to be a promoter of conspiracy, but I find it more than just coincidental that it suddenly happened upon Scalia's passing. We may never know the connection, but I am more than convinced that Thomas lost a bet and wasn't allowed to utter a word so long as Antonin was also serving. Maybe ... just maybe ... Scalia caught him putting a pubic hair on *his* can of Coke -- and *this* was the punishment? If it looks like hazing and sounds like hazing ... it's likely hazing.
I know some folks think that Scalia's death was suspicious .. so I'd just like to throw into the mix that those same folks should take a closer look at Clarence, just in case he was finally sick of being silenced and knew that the only way to get to talk again would be to take his tormentor's last breath. Allegedly.
