Eric Johnson says he wants I-16, I-95 interchange named for Clarence Thomas
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Senate President pro tem Eric Johnson (R-Savannah) says he’ll introduce legislation next year to have the I-16/I-95 interchange in Chatham County named for U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, the second African-American to sit on the high court bench.
“He is a native son of Savannah,” Johnson said. “Thomas has defended the U. S. Constitution from attack and protected the precious liberties of every American.”
Not that there’s any connection, but you’ll recall that Johnson was also in the news last week — when he issued a fairly incendiary statement condemning the release of Genarlow Wilson from prison.

What a superb idea to name the interchange for Justice Thomas—he’s very deserving. Georgia is fortunate to have such a role model justice on the High Court.

Excellent idea — I would be proud. Let’s do it.

Let’s put Clarence in jail for a couple of years for leaving pubic hair on his Coke can instead.
He’s trash.

Clarence Thomas should get Georgia’s highest award.
He overcame being a raging liberal to see the light and reform his wicked and misguided ways.
Viva Senor Thomas!!!!

I’m all for it - he’s a sexual predator - fits in well with the morals of the party of Senator “Happy Feet” Craig, and Senator “Hiya Madam” Vitter.

that’s better than naming for a politician which seems to be the case for the majority of GA’s roads or interchanges.

Roman Catholic, porn-addict Clarence Thomas lied his way onto the Supreme Court, destined by Satan to vote with only the other Roman Catholics, breaking all precedent since the latter part of the 19th C., to appoint the draft-dodging, closet-queen son of one of JFK’s assassins, and the grandson of Hitler’s banker, to the presidency, so he could go on and commit 9-11 and false war for opium, oil, profit and power.
Eric Johnson is a moron or a conscious agent of the Anti-Christ.

As Thomas’s confirmation hearings were ending, eight women who worked with him testified in his defense. White liberal racists don’t want to be bothered by the facts, however, when they are spinning their web of lies.
These eight women, some of whom had been the victims of real sexual harassment and sexual abuse, testified that Thomas was a good man. They testified about working with him late at night and not experiencing any of Hill’s fantasies. Further, they testified about how they could talk to him about the sexual harassment and abuse that they experienced. They testified that Anita was a scheming gold-digger who couldn’t trick Thomas into falling for her.
How long would Clarence Thomas have lasted if his defense to Anita Hill’s charges had been that oral sex wasn’t sex? How long would Clarence Thomas have lasted if he claimed that he hadn’t committed perjury because “it depended upon what the definition of the word “is” is?”
Liberals aren’t convinced of guilt when even DNA evidence is present—but curiously are convinced of guilt on the lone, thin, and unsubstantiated testimony of a woman with a motive to lie.
It was all about preserving abortion. What a noble cause……

Great idea. I support this whole heartedly. Justice Thomas is an inspiration to all Georgians.

Look at the agents of the Roman Anti-Christ rally for one of their own! The Fifth Column flourishes right in the face of Americans forgetful of the Ages old battle against despotism, pedophilia, perversion, and evil we won just a short time ago. Anita Hill was telling the truth. Only the servants of Satan deny it. Watch out for the “Larry Craigs” promoting pervert liars like Clarence Thomas.

Doesn’t Georgia have a relatively law on the books prohibiting naming things after living people? This sort of nonsense is how we get saddled with the Cynthia McKinney Parkway.

Dear Jim & Bob,
Can we dispense with the GDOT Ceremonies for a while, long enough to get some potholes in Bibb County repaired?
It’d be great if they could start with the I16, Martin Luther King Blvd, East Bound Exit. I’ve been yellin about it for years. You need dental work after taking this I16 exit to the Gateway of our beloved, fair city Macon.

Obviously, those opposed to this are racist.
There you go….all racists….every one of them.

Clarence Thomas knows that the women who supported Anita Hill knew she was telling the truth. It has taken Thomas over 10 years to devise why he had such a morally reprehensible confirmation. He should not have been confirmed because he was simply not qualified. He should thank Ms. Hill because if that debacle had not happened, he would not be in that seat.

Say what you will or may about Eric Johnson but without a doubt he is one of the best at playing Georgia’s white racists for suckers. He opposed Sonny’s flag but voted with him to deny the flaggers an opportunity to vote on their choice.
Knowing that he and the other members of the current leadership team have done little for the average Georgian, he is readying for next year’s election to play the white racists for suckers again with this recommendation, comments about the Grady Hospital situation and the Genarlow Wilson matter.
The white racists are many things but in the final analysis I don’t think they are fools.

Racists are victims, whether Black or White. G-d created us all. Let’s make America the covenanted Land of Promise again.
Our Nation was founded by Utopians to be the “Garden of the World,” the New Israel fulfilling the prophecy of a New Nation, founded by Gentiles, into which all nations flow (“a nation” is a “birth cell,” tribe or people). Racism is therefore not only un-American as a violation of Our Motto, “E Pluribus Unum,” but it is also against G-d, directly.
White and Black must unite against the Anti-Christ Babylonian pedophile priesthood and its Roman false aristocracy now destroying Our Republic through the treason of its Fifth Column in America. Their banker Rockefeller created the Oil Monopoly through unredressed murder and arson. Rockefellers’ Council on Foreign Relations has overseen the global, bi-partisan false-elite’s Roman Catholic CIA’s assassination of John Kennedy and Dr. King to keep us in Rome’s Vietnam. Rome financed the rise of Nazism and the Holocaust through their Knight of Malta agents, Prescott Bush and “The Rockefeller of Germany,” papal baron Fritz Thyssen.
Now Prescott Bush’s closeted, draft-dodging grandson has committed 9-11 to send us to false war for heroin, oil, the Saudis and a corrupt faction of false Jews in the State of Israel.
“Divide and Conquer.” Only Rome profits from racism in America. White and Black Whigs founded America. Together we can “correct” the problems facing Our Nation. Divided, the illegal invasion of Hispanic Roman Catholics continues to serve Rome’s fascist plutocracy and pedophile religion.
Georgians, White and Black, can make common cause with Our Countrymen and restore Truth and Justice in Our Land.
Death for Treason.
