Supreme Court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg appeared to fall asleep during President Obama's lenghty State of the Union address:

Weekend at Bernie's?

[Morgana]

Fall asleep or hibernate?

[jospehm20]

I can see that. Staying awake during an Obama speech I had to attend would be a low priority for me.

Sorta reminds me of Martha Beatrice Webb, Baroness Passfield.

Fall asleep or hibernate?

Either is fine, so long as she keeps serving on the Supreme Court until 1/20/17....

Did he fire her for her impertinence or have her dragged to the dungeon?

Fall asleep? She has been asleep without a brain since she was approved or the court. This is the same woman who holds an oath to protect and preserve the US Constitution, yet says she would rather see the South African Constitution emulated in a foreign address. This is one stupid or intentionally evil woman. I'll take the later.

[Olog-hai]

Again?

I remember a post on FR showing several times Ginsburg was photographed snoozing when ought to be awake.

And fed nothing but Michele approved school lunches (not to be confused with gourmet Sidwell Friends lunches) until she starves... probably by Friday.

Talk about inevitable. This is what happens when a catatonic Supreme Court Justice meets a Colossal Bore.

I hope she’s OK. I hate her politics but can’t be mad at an elderly lady. She either doesn’t want Obama to nominate her successor, or she wants to do things the Rehnquist way.

I don’t think she’s going to make it, but I sure hope she does.

I’m sure she falls asleep during most of her duties. and in classes or reading of the constitution.

[Tzimisce]

That’s nice.

I was throwing things at the screen....

also alito is sporting a garter belt and panties under his robe. His face is saying i hope no one finds out.

[RichInOC]

Even some of the lefties are having trouble even pretending to be excited about an Obama speech anymore.

[kvanbrunt2]

was scalia and thomas absent. hard to tell from the picture.

[Vision Thing]

barack the narcissist will spin this by saying that she fainted, just like all those other weaklings do at his campaign appearances.
