I'm not going to hate on one of my cancer cousins.
Get well soon, RBG. Defy all these salivating old white guys.

Re: RBG has Cancer...Again
Some people just don't know when to retire. I see A lot of states have mandatory retirement ages for judges at 70+. Should at least have 80 for the Fed. Is that another "Amend the Constitution or Shut the Fuck Up?"
How many people maintain the same keen intellect and energy level in their 80s (if they live that long) that they had in their 50s/60s/70s?
At 86 yrs/4 months old she's already the 4th oldest ever. Another 4 1/2 years she can surpass Taney (87 yrs/8 months), Stevens (90 yrs/2 months, and Holmes, (90 yrs/10 months).
The below link is from earlier last year when she was 6th oldest:
https://www.oldest.org/politics/supreme ... tices-usa/
Ginsburg over a year ago:
“I’m now 85,” she told Nina Totenberg at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival, “My senior colleague, Justice John Paul Stevens, he stepped down when he was 90, so I think I have about at least five more years.”
https://www.cheatsheet.com/culture/thes ... erve.html/
My prediction she won't make it that far. She'll croak 1st.

Re: RBG has Cancer...Again
I would like her to enjoy a nice retirement with family in what time she has left. Don't you think she's earned it?

Re: RBG has Cancer...Again
She should retire, but I am sure she is being pressured to stay. I actually wish her the best, she is in a no win situation.
I respect her for standing up for Kavanaugh and Gorsuch, and being against enlarging the court.

RBG had a bile duct stint implanted and that is supposedly an end of life measure.

And I'm with you. We're one SCOTUS appointment from maybe making machine guns legal again (WOOT!), but the hypocacy on McConnell's part would be hilarious should RGB kick in say January.

Re: RBG has Cancer...Again
I've already heard that his new defense is that when the same party controls the Exec and Senate, then his rule doesn't apply. He pulled that one right out of his ass in the past few weeks.
Gotta love these old fucks that people keep sending to Washington. They truly have no soul.

Just as a reminder...the only reason he can get away with his plan is because his predecessor Boxing Harry Reid killed the filibuster for Judges...which gave Cocaine Mitch the opening to kill the filibuster for SCOTUS...93henfan wrote:I've already heard that his new defense is that when the same party controls the Exec and Senate, then his rule doesn't apply.

McConnell will go for a replacement.
Difference is Obama was a lame duck Dem President facing a GOP Senate, Trump is not a lame duck GOP President with a GOP Senate. Like Obama said “Elections have consequences.”

I'm just saying that at some point, somebody has to step up to the plate and be the better person.
I was thinking the Party of Lincoln™ might be the one to break the cycle, but apparently not.

I don't agree with RBGs politics but I like and respect her. The Court needs differing opinions and IMO she has integrity and is good for the Court.
