Silent bleating

In this column, Steven Pearlstein says that Clarence Thomas's "blatantly partisan bleating" indicates he will "[do] whatever it takes to impose [his] conservative, free-market, nothing's-changed-since-1788 agenda on the country."

However, in this post at The Monkey Cage, John Sides breaks down how many words each justice addresses to each side of the argument.  The data indicate that Clarence Thomas asked no questions at all.

How could this be?  Of course, it could be that Thomas just opined without asking any questions.  Is that the case?
