Regardeless our feelings about RB Ginsberg as a judge, does the lack of privacy for her bother anyone else? I must say if someone here decided to spill my current condition and life expectancy, along with all my scan results and labs, and where the “Cancer Is Camping in my Corpus”, I’d be very upset.
Maybe because I’m stage 4 I’m too sensitive towards the cancer talk (it’s not like it bothers me, it is what it is) I just seem to have a problem with the buzzards feasting on a live body and doing the “film at 11” bit.
I’m just not hard enough to start putting bets on when the bat croaks.
Yes, it bothers me. It’s unseemly, but I suppose that’s because I am so old, and I was not raised by Saul Alinsky rules.
You are right Blu. I guess it’s another symptom of not placing value on life and privacy as we should. As much as I think she’d a bad judge RBG is a person and not a commodity.
What really shocked us that Carl Rove was more agreeable than I’ve ever seen and more related to Russia, Russia Russia
I’d be very upset.

HIPPA comes in there somewhere. It’s supposed to protect privacy. So I wonder where the supposed information is coming, or is it conjecture?
Yes. She could have resigned long ago, and the whole discussion could have been, "She's very sick, very old, and is stepping down."
Her whole purpose in staying is to obstruct justice. Funny how that works as a SCOTUS Justice.
No. Not at all. She is a public figure and sits on the highest court in the land. We have an absolute right to know whether or not she is competent and able to perform her duties. If she's not she needs to vacate her seat.
