...If the object is to exhaust all judicial remedies before releasing the documents, is the intent, then, to place the question before a Justice who is certain to deny the appeal?

And is that why Sibley has chosen Clarence Thomas? Because Sibley knows Thomas is sure to deny it?

And if so, why is Sibley sure Thomas will deny the appeal to release the DC Madam's records, hmmmmmmmmmmmmm?
