Justice Thomas' wife calls Anita Hill and tells her to apologize

[Brittain33]

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..........?

Not really. I mostly avoid the Hill/Thomas thing. I've seen people in divorces get worked up into a total rage against the other person over stuff that was actually their fault or which was a misunderstanding. People can convince themselves that things that didn't happen, did, if it fits their story about themselves. I can believe that Thomas believes he is right because believing in himself and his righteousness was what he had to do to get to where he is now, whether or not that's the truth.
