ACTION PAGE: PROSECUTE AND IMPEACH JUSTICE CLARENCE THOMAS FOR FALSIFYING DOCUMENTS
http://www.velvetrevolution.us/petitions/pnum1067.php



I am writing to ask that you begin impeachment proceedings and urge the U.S. Justice Department to bring criminal charges against Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas for making false statements on his AO 10 Financial Disclosure forms since 1989 by falsely swearing under criminal penalty that his wife Virginia had no non-investment income. After Common Cause disclosed this on January 21, 2011, Protect Our Elections wrote to the Attorney General requesting criminal prosecution.

As a result, Justice Thomas publicly announced that he amended his financial disclosure forms from 1989 through 2009 to include his wife's income. These amended forms included forms that he filed as part of his judicial nomination process.

1. He should also be disbarred.
Anyone know what bar he belongs to? I'm in a rush otherwise I'd check it now myself.

Anyone can initiate a bar complaint.

3. Thomas needs to be gone! Can you imagine if the rest of us pulled this?
We'd be drawn and quartered.
The thought that he lied and obviously thought nothing of it tells a lot about his character.

I always did believe Anita Hill!

4. If he were a Dem, the Repubs would be shouting from the rooftops about this.
Where are the Dems?

8. DU video of Kevin Zeese. Thomas' close decisions need to be vacated and re-decided.

Thomas shows conflicts on interests on several cases decided. It would be one thing if he were to decide AGAINST his personal family interests.

Thomas needs to step down for the good of the country.

10. The Washington D.C. elite take care of each other
Nothing will happen to Clarence Thomas, just like nothing happened to Tom Daschle, Tim Geithner, Charlie Rangel, Ted Stevens, George Bush...the list is endless.
