RBG I'M NOT GONNA FEEL SORRY FOR MYSELF
tmz ^ | 9/20/2019 | tmz

Posted on 09/20/2019 11:00:10 AM PDT by RummyChick

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is walking the walk and talking the talk ... showing everyone she's in the game of life.

RBG got a little help from security but also walked without assistance Thursday in NYC as she entered the 92nd Street Y cultural center.

She spoke to the crowd -- something she's been doing with some frequency after her 4th bout with cancer.

The night before, Ginsburg spoke at the Yale Club and told the crowd, "This latest has been my fourth cancer battle and I found each time that when I'm active I'm much better than if I'm just lying about and feeling sorry for myself."

She's repeatedly said she will stay on the Court as long as she's mentally agile.

Good news.

Maybe because she can’t feel anything anyway?...

She’s only hanging in for as long as she can because she KNOWS what’s waiting on the other side......

...

She should retire and work on her bucket list full time.

I forgot until hearing it recently that the oldest members of the House and Senate required assistance to make it to their seats and an aide to raise their arm so they could press Yay or Nay on an important vote.

Like white haired rock stars and actors they just cannot give up the cheers and applause and gracefully leave the stage.

Just retire and try to live some days outside of the public eye, RBG. Unless the only happiness she gets is from being on the SCOTUS. Then she can’t leave. Any more than Bob Dylan and Pete Townshend.

You’d be a medical marvel too if you had her medical care.

She's giving Karl Ruprecht Kroenen the mechanical man from Hellboy a run for his money.

Have a mechanic friend who works at Dulles. He sees politicians come through the airport all the time.

He commented just last night that RBG looks like a mummy being wheeled on and off the planes.

The only thing on her bucket list is to kick it!

Alex Trebek and Steve Jobs could afford the same care.

I’m surprised the Democrats aren’t spending time in Romania looking for vampires to keep her alive.

You seem to blame the House members or Senators for not retiring. What about the voters role in the situation?

She’s going to have to wait quite some time, if she’s trying to weight out Conservatives.

Trump will get a second term, and it’s very likely he will be followed by another Conservative for at least one term.

I’m curious about the figures - how many SCOTUS members have stayed on the job through their health decline until death (excepting those who died suddenly or accidentally)?

As a head of the ACLU her bucket list is hellbent destruction of this country’s founding principles.

That has to be the most misguided description in all of history on earth.
