How random. Assuming the request for an apology was some sort of stunt, what did she hope to accomplish?
Thomas has shown in his writings that he's still very upset about this and hasn't gotten over it. My take on this was that it didn't originate with Ginny but that after 19 years she's desperate for anything that might make her husband get over it and stop being so miserable and angry, so she lost her judgment and tried this.
Does it lead you to believe that the allegations weren't true or there could have been a legitimate misunderstanding between Thomas and Hill..........?
i watched very closely and even recorded the Thomas confirmations hearings (still have the vcr tapes), and the thing that struck me was that the witnesses who knew both Thomas and Hill were unanimously on the side of Thomas. They said that Hill was overjoyed that Thomas had be nominated and beamed while lavishing praise on Thomas.
On a side note, there was a very funny witness, a black man with blue eyes, who was simply full of himself and his handsomeness. Midway through his testimony it became clear he was there to talk more about himself than the subject matter at hand, which prompted one Dem Senator to remark, “you think you’re pretty charming, don’t you?” and the witness replied, “Well, my wife tells me that I am.”
