FLASHBACK: Angela Wright - The 'Other Woman' Of The Anita Hill-Clarence Thomas Debacle
Angela Wright, "The Other Woman" of the Anita Hill-Clarence Thomas Hearings (Flashback)

Before Virginia Thomas, there was Anita Hill and Clarence Thomas -- and Angela Wright (who?)

Angela Wright heard Anita Hill and thought, "I believe her because he did it to me." Her testimony might have changed history. She was subpoenaed. Why wasn't she called?

1. Thanks Ginny!
I forgot about this woman. Thanks to your antics, not just me but everyone else out there will get a refresher course about all the woman who had similar experiences with Clarence.

2. Aww, Virginia, you are a Santa Claus.
I didn't remember Angela Wright. I thank you and Virginia for bringing it all back.

3. Remember what Ms. Thomas said
"The Reason why you did what you did with my Husband" With is the word you need to look at in this case. She knows her husband did exactly what she thinks. I believe that there may be trouble brewing in that relationship with that Tea Party stuff and the fact she can't explain where the half of a million dollars came from. Suppose hubby did not know she accepted the money until it was reported in the news a couple of months ago. And suppose he did not want her involvement to have a dispersion on his character as Justice knowing he was attending events with people who are against the Present Administration. Calling into question the Citizens United Ruling. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. The move is a total b---h play. It sounds like something an angry argumentative wife would do. She like us has read the information on her husband and knows he is a liar and a cheat. If she really wanted to hurt him in the worst way I think joining the Tea Party and throwing Anita Hill up in his face is very hurtful. The Tea Party in itself is a huge slap in the face.

4. Because back then it was a good old boy's club I am telling you
the Democrats along with the republicans thought woman should not protest if they were sexually harassed or stalked. It took more years to even get any kind of laws passed. And now the republicans want to take the few that were passed away. I hope this opens a can of worms and the people in this country find out what an absolute POS Thomas is. I just wish they could get something illegal on Thomas and Scalia.

5. Thanks for posting.
Both of the linked articles from 1994 & 2003 are essential reading if you want to understand how the least qualified person to ever occupy a seat on the Supreme Court was pushed through. The men of both parties are equally responsible. Actually, I hold Biden the most responsible as he orchestrated the whole game.
