YR: Justice Thomas, you're a big proponent of states' rights. Someone in Colorado said that the Court's decision giving freedom of speech protection to corporations has turned the Colorado constitution into waste paper. This would seem contrary to states' rights. What do you say to the argument that the Court has turned the Colorado constitution into waste paper?
CT: Good. I hope there were enough copies of the Colorado constitution and other state constitutions -- 20 or 30 million copies perhaps -- so that they can turn all the waste paper into a few tons of newsprint. There is a shortage of newsprint, you know.
But . . . . . on second thought . . . . .
YR: Justice Roberts, Justice Kennedy, Justice Scalia, Justice Thomas, Justice Alito, I want you to know how greatly I appreciate all the time you have given me. You have been very indulgent, and I am grateful. With your permission, I will ask just a few final questions, and then we will be finished.
JR: What do you mean "we" will be finished, said Justice Roberts. Go ahead.
