Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on Sunday said she hopes to remain on the high court for at least five more years, according to CNN.

"My senior colleague, Justice John Paul Stevens, he stepped down when he was 90, so think I have about at least five more years," 85-year-old Ginsburg said at an event in New York City.

I guess that being a govt employee is indeed the most secure job in the world. Sleeping on the job is simply Not A Big Deal esp as how you got such a powerful job and the powerful politicians are on your side. Democrats can indeed get away with ANYTHING!!

If she’d retire and STFU, like Jimmy Carter,

When did Jimmy ever shut up? https://www.cartercenter.org/news/editorials_speeches/archive-2001-2005.html https://www.cartercenter.org/news/editorials_speeches/index.html

She’s continuing to work for years after people expected her to retire. Barker stayed on the Price is Right for ages.

Better make it 6 1/2 years - that is, if she doesn’t want Trump replacing her.

Women typically live longer than men. Approximately 45% of 85 year olds suffer from some form of dementia. 85 year old women are much more likely to suffer from dementia than 85 year old men. Ginsburg has been showing sign of dementia for several years.

Ginsburg unable to stay awake at her hero, Obama's state of the union address.

I think God will have something to say about that, don’t you? Best not to count one’s chickens before they’re hatched.

I know a fed worker who has been told he can work from home on Fridays. like hell he does. He goes around in his RV , now in TN using like a parachute and a motor. Long weekend every week at least,.Turns in late when at work, leaves early, takes days off like he has a ton of them, and it pisses me off that my taxes pays his wages making over 90 grand while I make a quarter of that, and have to work all hours, and days.

“....and STFU, like Jimmy Carter,”

No such luck. Jimmah Carter has been running his mouth since 1981 when Ronald Reagan forced him from office. He has badmouthed every Republican president and bashed Israel over the past thirty seven years until he might as well wear a burnoose.

Carter is the worst ex-president ever. If Obama wants that distinction, he has decades of catching up to do.

Anyway, as noted Ruth Buzze G’burg has all but admitted she expects DJT to win a second term. But threatening to outlast a Republican administration sorta worked for Thurgood Marshall; he outlived the Reagan years only to cork off four days after the Clintons were inaugurated, so go for it, Ruthie.
