Lillian McEwen, a retired prosecutor, law professor and administrative law judge, discussed her intimacy with Thomas in a lengthy television interview Friday with reporter Rebecca Cooper of ABC affiliate WJLA in Washington, D.C.

Thomas and McEwen first met on Capitol Hill in 1979 and the two quickly became friends, she told Cooper in the interview. Several years later, after Thomas became separated from his first wife and well before he was elevated to the Supreme Court, their relationship grew intimate.

McEwen, a Democrat who says she has disapproves of Thomas' conservative jurisprudence on the bench, has written a memoir, which she is currently shopping to publishers.



During their roughly five years together, according to McEwen, the couple occasionally went to a porn shop called Graffiti, where the owner stocked Thomas' preferred products behind the counter.
McEwen said that on several occasions Thomas looked at pornographic materials during intercourse.
"His interest in women's breasts was a fantasy. And when I say women's breasts I mean huge breasts," said McEwen. "He would get porn that emphasized that, that had the photographs of women with huge breasts."


McEwen told Cooper that she was not inclined to come forward sooner because of a fondness for Thomas and out of recognition that testimony about personal relationships is not customarily allowed at Senate Confirmation Hearings.

1. What are Thomas' "preferred products"?
I sort of want to know. And I sort of don't.

4. This is not a woman he stalked, she is a lover of a minimum of five years,
and she seems truthful and thoughtful in her answers, assessments and reasoning.

6. i won't police anyone's sexual fantasies...
...but when they start to infringe on the rights of others it's illegal, wrong for anyone, but especially wrong for a jurist. and perjuring oneself at nomination hearings, especially when it involves denigrating someone else's character (Anita Hill) is, of course illegal and immoral, not to mention just one more example of right wing hypocrisy.
