You can focus on your treatment and rest well. Diane Pamela Wood, prepare for a move to the DC area. Far more important than the fiscal cliff is the judicial cliff and I am glad reason won yesterday.
The fact that you think establishing an activist supreme court is more important than keeping the country from going bankrupt speaks volumes.
Like one that would do away with all restraint or public accountability for campaign spending? We have an activist court. Wash would simply like some different activities.
I'm a conservative, and I likewise wish Justice Ginsburg good health and no less than four more years of service on the Supreme Court.
I find it really odd that WashU and Roger seem so excited about all of this. What vision do both of you have for the country?? Do you prefer that Democrats control the House also?? It appears that you're entirely in favor of a one party system?? Do you genuinely feel that this is the best solution for the country?? Entitlements and interest on debts are dangerously close to exceeding GDP (if they don't already) - do you think a one party system that embraces entitlements is capable of overcoming this current predicament???
Past Time for her to retire. Not just because she's a left winger, but because the nation deserves the SCOTUS be filled with people who are physically and mentally capable to do their job. Every time I've heard her speak the last couple of years, it sounds like it may be her last gasp. Weak in enunciation, and what's enunciated is hardly the consideration of a judge, let alone a SCOTUS judge.
Thurgood was even worse at the end. He regularly fell asleep at the bench during oral arguments (including audible snores - can you imagine trying to state your case over loud snoring?), had his clerks write his opinions for him and spent most of his days watching a small tv set inside chambers (he liked old reruns).
Another SC battle to confirm a Trump appointee? Just what the country needs right now I'd say. It would certainly be great for cable news ratings Not so good for the country. The Realtor in Chief is going to be gone in two years and the successor will be somebody with a lot less baggage. We pray
I don't know, I want another Supreme Court Justice who interprets the Constitution literally and limited in scope. Trump seems to appoint people like that. I say give him another shot.
Maybe we can elect a President that will do things like deliver a couple billion in cash stacked on pallets to the greatest purveyor of terrorism in the world. As bad as Trump can be at times, it is hard to believe that fu----g tool preceded him.
The left/media attempt to canonize RGB is getting almost laughable(new RGB movie). I wouldn't be surprised if the next Marvel movie has an RGB cameo. They are trying to set the table so that when she retires/dies there will be an enormous groundswell for replacing her with a far left liberal female. The left has made a theme of how the GOP has been cultivating judges for federal/SCOTUS courts the last 30 years. The dems have been doing the propaganda machine much longer and arguably MUCH BETTER. we really need some deep pockets to buy Hollywood back from the liberals.
One way to diffuse this is to nominate Garland. That would be a huge troll though I prefer someone more conservative.
Ginsburg will NOT be on the bench today when the court hears oral argument, the first time she has missed a session. She underwent cancer surgery Dec. 21
