I dont remember where I was when my dad nominated Ruth Bader Ginsburg to the Supreme Court, but I do remember how I felt: very excited and a little surprised.
This was 1993. I was thirteen years old. In elementary school, I had learned about Sandra Day OConnor, who had been confirmed twelve years earlier as the first woman justice of the Supreme Court. But until Ruth Bader Ginsburg, I didnt realize so many years had passed without there being a second.
I was like this as a kid. I believed the world was fairer than it was. Which is why I admired Justice Ginsburg so much: She was the rare adult who made our country live up to a childs inherent sense of fairness.
Justice Ginsburg served on the court for 27 years. She wrote 483 opinions, many of which were intent on making every American who felt excludedwomen in particularbelong.(snip)
Because of her work, not only as a Justice but also as a lawyer, you cannot be fired for being pregnant, or denied a credit card or a spot in a public university because of your sex, or rejected for a marriage license because of who you love. She was a 51 legal giant. Who could possibly replace her?
One of the final cases Justice Ginsburg heard was about birth control. The Trump Administration had a new regulation that would roll back coverage for contraceptionit was a bad rule, which Justice Ginsburg argued against. But she lost, and countless women lost with her. The president got what he wanted.
If President Trump succeeds in placing Amy Coney Barrett as Justice Ginsburgs successor, I expect that he will get even more of what he wantswith disastrous consequences for the country.

Who and why does anyone even give the time of day to the Clinton piglet?
Look,
Her,
Face,
Could sink a thousand ships,
Thousand ships,
Thousand ships....
You do realize she only has 1 living parent....Webb Hubbell died some years ago...
Can you get a degree now in “Chelsey Clinton’s Hander”?
...or a Masters in “How to Manage Stupid Ugly Bastard Children of Political Power Hungry Parents”?
Apparently so.
Life is difficult, buttercup.
Because I remember how fair it was when playing a game and someone arbitrarily changed the rules.
“...your Dad didnt, Bill Clinton did.”
LOL
Chelsea Clinton is the best argument in favor of abortion.
“Fairness”?
Out of approximately 150 clerks hired, the affirmative action queen Ginsburg hired one African American.
Listen up Chelsea, you stupid, entitled little sea hunt: The seat doesn’t belong to RGB. It never did. It belongs to the people of the United States. So you can just shut up and go back to spending all your ill gotten gains, ok?
Bucky can shut her Williebrownhole just any old time...
I doubt to this day that Chelsea realizes that if her great-
Are you sure?
I’m confused. She mentions here dad.
Did Webb Hubbell nominate Ruth Bader Ginsburg to the Supreme Court?
If it wasn't for who her mother is, no one would have the slightest care for what she thinks.
It’s not RBG’s seat. Before 1993 it was Byron White’s seat. Before that it was someone else’s (probably Charles Whittaker’s). And so on back (I don’t know if it one of the original places dating back to the Washington administration or only goes back to when the Court was enlarged to 9 seats). But in reality they all belong to the American people, not to any individual.
She decided to quit her no-show job because she just couldn’t make herself care about money.
Chelsea Clinton - Another moron who never worked a day in her life but is rich.
Seems a common theme in the Democrat Party.
