Truth to Power

You get the feeling Clarence Thomas never read Rousseau

Clarence Thomas, speaking to a group of high school students:

“Today there is much focus on our rights,” he said. “Indeed, I think there is a proliferation of rights.”

Jean Jacques Rousseau:

“Man is born free, but everywhere he is in chains.”

I’ll take my chances with Rousseau, thanks.
