Deny and Deflect: Anthony Weiner

Rep. Anthony Weiner is calling out Justice Clarence Thomas regarding his wife's earnings from the health care industry.   Weiner's website has him posting against Judge Thomas and describes Thomas' strategy as "deny and deflect."  


It is an interesting strategy.   Weiner wrote:


Does Justice Clarence Thomas have a conflict of interest?

It may not please the court, but it sure looks that way. Permit me to present the evidence.

Thomas's wife earned $700,000 from uber-conservative groups that opposed health care reform. He neglected to disclose her income for 13 years -- until he got caught and submitted a slew of amended filings.

What's the honorable justice's defense? Deny and deflect. First he said his critics were "undermining" the Supreme Court. Now, apparently we're suffering from "a disease of illiteracy or laziness."
We have been waiting for 10 days to find out what conflicts Justice Thomas is bringing to our Supreme Court every day. He MUST make the financial disclosure forms he filed over a week ago public immediately. Hundreds of thousands have already joined me in calling out Conflicted Clarence Thomas, but I need your help to make sure he hears us loud and clear
