George Takei Apologizes For Calling Clarence Thomas A ‘Clown In Blackface’
George Takei has apologized for referring to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas as “a clown in blackface.”
In a Facebook update posted on Friday afternoon, Takei said, “I owe an apology. On the eve of this Independence Day, I have a renewed sense of what this country stands for, and how I personally could help achieve it.”
On Thursday the Star Trek actor, who is gay, came under fire when he told a reporter he disapproved of Thomas’ dissent on the high court’s landmark same-sex marriage case.
“He is a clown in blackface sitting on the Supreme Court,” a jolted Takei said. “He gets me that angry. He doesn’t belong there.”

George Takei Tries Apologizing For Being Racist. Again.
Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock the past few days, you probably heard about George Takei’s comments comparing Clarence Thomas to a “clown in blackface.” All because Thomas wrote this in his dissent:
Human dignity has long been understood in this country to be innate. When the Framers proclaimed in the Declaration of Independence that “all men are created equal” and “endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights,” they referred to a vision of mankind in which all humans are created in the image of God and therefore of inherent worth. That vision is the foundation upon which this Nation was built.
The corollary of that principle is that human dignity cannot be taken away by the government. Slaves did not lose their dignity (any more than they lost their humanity) because the government allowed them to be enslaved. Those held in internment camps did not lose their dignity because the government confined them. And those denied governmental benefits certainly do not lose their dignity because the government denies them those benefits. The government cannot bestow dignity, and it cannot take it away.
Honestly, Takei was behind. Liberal rags spent a good portion of the week accusing Thomas of being racist. Against himself. And let’s face it. The JF liberals (JF = jerk face) have their heads stuck too far up their assular areas to understand his point.
We’re not endowed by the government with certain unalienable rights. God gave them to us. It’s inherent. Similarly, the government isn’t the source of human dignity. Government can’t give it or take it away. But that’s almost impossible for a nanny state imbecile to understand.
Sigh.
