Full Circle


Washington, DC, April 3, 2006:

Caller: "Is he in?"
Sean: "Let me see, one moment. Can I tell him who's calling?"
Caller: "Uh, yeah... Clarence Thomas."






It was just after the Presidential election in 2000. Thousands of people were gathered in front of the Supreme Court in both protest and support of whatever it was people were supporting and protesting. And in the middle of it all was this man:

















That's Sean P. Flynn, in the middle of serious left and right-wing crazies, holding the sign that says: ABOLISH THE DESIGNATED HITTER (Rule 6.10)

That was the last time they met...but everytime Sean sees the President or Clarence Thomas watches an American League game, they both stop and think about what that day meant for all of us...
