Default SCOTUS Justice Clarence Thomas lied

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas lied for five years on his federal financial disclosure forms, repeatedly denying his wife Ginny earned hundreds of thousands of dollars as a Washington lobbyist, including fighting against Obama's healthcare reform.

Judge Thomas finally released this information (his corrected financial disclosure forms) the Friday night of Memorial Day weekend (the timing of typical political dump of truth when you don't want news coverage about it). This was eclipsed by the Weinergate story. Congressman Weiner has been actively trying to get Justice Thomas to both account for his years of lying while on the bench, and to recuse himself from hearing any cases regarding Obamacare.

if he recuses himself surely Sotomayer should as well and then it's just a yes/no cancel out. I think they should both stay and in fact write the majority/minority opinions. This comes down to Kennedy.

Nothng more than another attempt for the Dems to jam it home to the taxpayer. Obamacare will save a few and kill the rest. Kind of like fixing a door handle while the engine light is on, the engine is knocking bad and smoke is starting to come out.

Why? When did Sotomayer deliberately lie for five years professionally?

When did Kagan deliberately lie for five years during her professional government employment?

It has nothing to do with knowing every financial detail for a spouse and everything to do with any opinions she had foreseeing/preparing for suits, in her role as Soliciter General, against the unconstitutional obamacare. I think this has everything to do with race!
