Like after 'My Own Private Rodeo' all these people wrote to me and said Dale's dad inspired them to come out. And this was when it was still illegal to be gay in Texas and a few other states. Another one that really stuck with me was this girl who survived Columbine. See, \"Wings of the Dope,\" the episode where Luanne's boyfriend comes back as an angel, aired two weeks after the shooting. About a month after that, I got a letter from a girl who was there and hid somewhere in the school when it was all going on. She said the first thing she was gonna do if she survived was tell a friend of hers she was in love with him. She never did. He ended up being one of the kids responsible for it. So you can imagine how - you know, to her, it felt wrong to grieve almost, and she bottled it up. But she saw that episode and Buckley walking away at the end and something just let her finally break down and greive and miss the guy. I remember she quoted Luanne - 'I wonder if he's guardianing some other girl,' or something along that line, because she never had the guts to tell the kid. That really gets to people at Comic Con.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Mike Judge" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/mike-judge/i-don-t-get-as-much-fan-mail-as-an-actor-or-singer-would-but-when-i/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/fa4/mike-judge-13169_2007_i-don-t-get-as-much-fan-mail-as-an-actor_223441.png", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/fa4/mike-judge-13169_2007_i-don-t-get-as-much-fan-mail-as-an-actor_223441.png", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/fa4/mike-judge-13169_2007_i-don-t-get-as-much-fan-mail-as-an-actor_223441.png", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“I don't get as much fan mail as an actor or singer would, but when I get a letter 99% of the time it's…” — Mike Judge", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "item": { "@type": "Quotation", "text": "“There were two kinds of cases before the Supreme Court.

If Marshall left, they could not leave the Supreme Court an all-white institution; at the same time, they had to choose a nominee who would stay true to the conservative cause. The list of plausible candidates who fit both qualifications pretty much began and ended with Clarence Thomas . … There was awkwardness about the selection from the start. \"The fact that he is black and a minority has nothing to do with this,\" Bush said. \"He is the best qualified at this time.\" The statement was self-evidently preposterous; Thomas had served as a judge for only a year and, before that, displayed few of the customary signs of professional distinction that are the rule for future justices. For example, he had never argued a single case in any federal appeals court, much less in the Supreme Court; he had never written a book, an article, or even a legal brief of any consequence. Worse, Bush's endorsement raised themes that would haunt not only Thomas's confirmation hearings but also his tenure as a justice. Like the contemporary Republican Party as a whole, Bush and Thomas opposed preferential treatment on account of race—and Bush had chosen Thomas in large part because of his race.
