"Couple young Italian fellas and a brother on the Court now too But I defy you, anywhere in the world, to find me two Italians as tight-assed as the two Italians we got And as for the brother, well Pluto's not a planet anymore either" I understand him to be saying that, as brothers go, Clarence Thomas isn't much of one. Especially when compared to the man he supposedly replaced, Thurgood Marshall, who argued 1954's Brown v. Board of Education, finding that state-sponsored segregation of public schools was unconstitutional. |

"They don't have Jamaican accents, it's a Ukrainian accent." GB's guest MC Ras Kush, however, DOES have a Jamaican accent, clearly different from Hutz's Ukrainian.
