Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg says she is ‘very much alive’
NYPost ^ | July 24, 2019

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is reminding critics that she’s not dead yet.

“There was a senator, I think it was after my pancreatic cancer, who announced, with great glee, that I was going to be dead within six months. That senator, whose name I have forgotten, is now dead himself, and I am very much alive,” Ginsburg told NPR in an interview published Wednesday.

And the 86-year-old justice, who survived a string of health scares, including most recently when she was treated in December for lung cancer, said she intends to stay much longer on the bench.

So there you have it. RBG is having memory problems.
How can she serve on the supreme court if her memory is incapacitated ?

She’s crowing but she’s also stepping from banana peel to banana peel.

A serious globalist marxian— complete agenda driven unconstitutional abomination.

Then take a look at Roberts— just WHY did he immediately fly to Malta, after his idiotic overnight rewrite of obmaumaocare opinion (the opposite of what his colleagues had agreed on— re: a fine as a tax, a mandate as a tax forced on everyone).

Still being blackmailed, still probable queer, and his “illegal” (only to the dems who are using this, obamaumao did especially) Irish orphans adopted through Brazilians.

Alive and functional are two different ways of being.

Like survived and accident, which means that they have been able to keep heart and respirations going

‘very much alive’ can have differing meanings.

What Senator is she talking about?

She has conveniently forgotten the name.

... Ginsburg told NPR in an interview published Wednesday.

An interview published? No audio? No video? I am skeptical.... The left and the Dems want to prop her up through the first of the year. Then with an election looming they will delay a replacement till after the next inauguration (of President Trump for his second term).

NPR evidently according to article. Of course they wouldn’t lie would they?

Slate - Emily Bazelon — October 12, 2012

Talking to Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg

[snip] Three years ago, I interviewed Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg for the New York Times Magazine. At one point, we talked about the lack of Medicaid funding for abortions for poor women, because of a 1980 Supreme Court decision called Harris v. McRae. She said then:

The ruling surprised me. Frankly I had thought that at the time Roe was decided, there was concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don’t want to have too many of. So that Roe was going to be then set up for Medicaid funding for abortion.

I didn’t ask the follow up question that would have given Ginsburg the chance to clarify what she meant—to explain who was concerned about population growth at the time, and in what context. Because I didn’t do that, some conservatives pounced. From Jonah Goldberg in theNational Review:

Left unclear is whether Ginsburg endorses the eugenic motivation she ascribed to the passage of Roe v. Wade or whether she was merely objectively describing it. One senses that if Antonin Scalia had offered such a comment, a Times interviewer would have sought more clarity, particularly on the racial characteristics of these supposedly unwanted populations.

The Democrats can’t delay unless Mitch McConnell agrees with them.
So far he says it’s a go next year if there is a vacancy.
