Tyrrell lauds Clarence Thomas for writing the book of the year, even conceding its superiority over his own work.

If Justice Thomas has written something better than The Clinton Crack-Up, it must be attributable to subject matter.

Could Justice Thomas's skill-level give us "mendacious indignados" as a description of his tormentors?

Recall that one of those present-day indignados has called Justice Thomas an "embarrassment" whose opinions are "poorly written," like an "eighth-grade dissertation." (Thank God for Catholic schools.) Could such an ignoramus write the book of the year? To find out, we'll have to wait for Harry Reid's memoirs.

Perhaps his publisher will title it "The Congressional Indignado," but that misses something. The diminutive, indignito, would be more fitting. The feminine, indignita, better still. But language fails us, as I don't think these are in our lexicon.

Regardless, I look forward to My Grandfather's Son: A Memoir, and I thank you for The Clinton Crack-Up.

p>Merry Christmas, RET, Justice Thomas, and all! br> -- Dan Martin br> Pittsburgh /p> p> Y'know, I found one aspect of the Democrat reaction to the accounts of destroyed tapes amusing. It was stated that the tapes were destroyed to protect clandestine agents. Democrats were more enamored of protecting these kind of agents when they were Valerie Plame…I guess the agents in these tapes aren't capable of doing harm to the Republicans. br> -- Robert Nowall
