Whoopi Goldberg Attacks Clarence Thomas, Citing White Wife

• https://thenewamerican.com, by Steve Byas

In what is for her a typical rant, Whoopi Goldberg of The View, used her forum on that program on Monday to tell Supreme Court Associate Justice Clarence Thomas that he "better hope that they don't come for you, Clarence, and say 'you should not be married to your wife,' who happens to be white."

Goldberg was angry about Thomas' role in the reversal of the 1973 Supreme Court decision, Roe v. Wade. Thomas was one of six judges who upheld the Mississippi law making illegal any abortions performed after 15 weeks, and one of five who went further and reversed the Roe decision that led to over 60 million unborn babies being killed in their mothers' womb.

Apparently, Justice Thomas particularly bothered Goldberg because he is a black person, and Goldberg, who is a black person, seems to believe all black individuals should think like her on the issue of abortion and on other issues.

"What's next? Clarence Thomas is signaling they would like to get rid of contraception. Do you understand, sir? No, because you don't have to use it."

Goldberg added, "We (African-Americans) were not in the Constitution either," in reference to the majority decision, written by Justice Samuel Alito, that held the regulation of abortion was not one of the enumerated powers given to Congress in the U.S. Constitution. "We were not even people. You better hope that they don't come for you, Clarence, and say 'you should not be married to your wife,' who happens to be white. Because they will move back."
