I don’t really care. I just hope if she croaks, Republicans can tie up the nomination for two years until an adult gets in the WH.

The fact that she refuses to retire tells me that she’s confident about the fix being in for 2016.

A tribute to micro-surgery no doubt.

I still laugh when I see that sketch.

It also serves to explain the substance of her opinions.

Hope she hired her own security and has a food taster.

Obama wants her out.

Prayers up for her health and recovery.

Ditto. I hope she recovers fully and is able to resume her responsibilities. She'll retire when she's ready.

My personal hope is that she stays on the bench until 2017, but that's her call.

“Prayers up for her health and recovery.”

Yeah, that’s the ticket. Let’s all pray that the old commie bitch hangs in there until Obola is gone, because those “collegial GOPE types” would be more than happy to confirm another “Wise Latina” or “Fat Capo.” I/m praying too, but probably not for the same reasons as you are.

Say what you will about the "old commmie bitch," but at least she gained her appointment through the Constitutionally approved process.

I'm not a huge fan of hers for obvious reasons, but these days I'm happy to see ANYTHING that was done Constitutionally.

Stay healthy for 2 more years Ruthie.

Too late. The senate could not be brought to a confirmation hearing before January. Tough noogins' Obola.

I look forward to President Cruz nominating Justice Ginsburg’s successor.
