Walter Russell Mead highlights Jeffrey Toobin's essay for the New Yorker and finds that the Left's treatment of Justice Thomas is much like how the evil Sauron paid little attention to the journey of Frodo and Sam until it was too late.

Doom.
This is a must read.

ReplyDeleteI think that in this metaphor, the Constitution is the stand in for Gollum. It is a much better guide than he ever was. At least the Constitution will lead Thomas to the right place and not turn on him in the most pivotal moment.
I was thinking more along the lines of the CFR (council on foreign relations). Considering they head the front of popluar and upcoming runners. Even those who seem to be the "little man". The CFR is extremely dangerous.
