But I think Clarence Thomas, ironically, would agree that to call an intellectual light weight anything other than an intellectual light weight because he is black would be the height of racism.

I wasn't directing that at you per se, just making a point.
This is chicken/egg - he is called an intellectual light weight by many
because he is a black conservative. If he was a liberal, I doubt he would be called this. Same if he was white - how many white conservative justices, other than perhaps Burger, were called lightweights?
