<p>I disagree with just about everything Condi Rice did, but I think it would be hard for any one to argue that she isn’t very, very, very smart. Sewhappy, one curious thing about Clarence Thomas is that unlike other justices he never ever asks a question from the bench. It’s very weird and certainly leads to suspicions that it’s because he’s not too swift on his feet. I think he just refuses to do so out of orneriness now.</p>
