"She's doing great!"

"Yeah, let her out!"

I hope she does not suffer and recovers quickly. I wonder what precipitated the fall?

That will probably interfere with her strenuous workouts...

...and pulmonary contusion from the rib shrapnel floating around. That is the life threatening part.

Chances are it’s not *that* bad; but still bad.

We’ll know how bad if she starts missing votes in addition to oral arguments.

I wonder if Kavanaugh had her pinned down in her bathing suit groping her with a hand over her mouth and Gorsuch jumped them both as a joke, knocking him off, and Ruth ran down the stairs, their laughter ... indelible in the hippopotamus.

Ginsburg’s Antifa law clerks are the ones actually occupying her seat on the Supreme Court.

It’s a little crowded, I’m sure...

"Who do the Leftists pray to? Government is their god."

It's actually a very important question, the answer to which explains it all.

All humans implicitly, whether they like it or not, include a supreme being in their psyche, hence in all their actions, questions, wishes, supplications. When it isn't God, it will always be the self - which in object form means the intellect and the ego. There is really no more important or deep point in the Bible.

Pride as a sin in its deepest form doesn't mean walking around like and arrogant bastard or consciously praising oneself. It means 'mistaking oneself for the supreme being at an unconscious level.'

The resulting judgment takes place in the real world, sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly, and affects not just the one who makes this mistake. The judgment takes many shapes, but can always be mapped back to the actions taken out of that mistaken apprehension of the universe.

It's true that those on the right suffer from it as all humans do, but the left is pretty much DEFINED by it.

I was raised better than to celebrate personal injury to an elderly jewish lady.

Well, hoo-te-doo.

Virtue signal much?

I for one am sorry to hear this. I was raised better than to celebrate personal injury to an elderly jewish lady.

But not well enough to refrain from mentioning her religion unnecessarily?

If she had bone mets from pancreatic cancer, she would have died within one year of diagnosis. They caught her pancreatic cancer VERY early when she has an MRI for her colon cancer.

I think our side is going to play hardball the next time. May even change a few rules.
“By the rules” but hardball.
