This is why us wise people think not standing for the anthem is a big deal. Oh, @franklinman and @LafayetteBear - I shouldn't assume you know what Unum means. It means you are a loser.

During an interview broadcast on Wednesday’s edition of the Fox News Channel’s “Ingraham Angle,” Justice Clarence Thomas stated that he doesn’t know what Americans can say they have in common as a country.

He answered, “No, I’m not surprised. I mean, what binds us? What do we all have in common anymore? I think we have to think about that.
