Happy Rosh Hashana

Call me negative, but this is very likely going to ensure a massive female democrat turnout. The Dems/MSM will be wall-to-wall “female reproductive rights hang in the balance of this election.” RBG may have just handed the election to Biden.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Hope you are wrong.

Exactly!!! Trump knows there is zero chance of the Senate confirming a justice at this late date. He won’t risk the embarrassment of losing even if McConnell were to inclined to open hearings.

I pray for her soul. But it’s not up to me.

[DivineMomentsOfTruth]

Her family is reporting she said “I don’t want to be replaced by this President “. Hard to believe.. Sounds made up for politics. She could have retired during Obama’s reign.

[DivineMomentsOfTruth]

Linda Graham will refuse to go forward.

I’m guessing an asteroid in November.

Roberts will intentionally make them 4-4 rulings so horrid decisions by lower courts will stand

[rbg81]

I would not call per partisan for trying to survive. But I will agree that a normal person would have resigned long ago due to illness. That plus it never ceases to amaze me how these Washington types cling to power to the bitter end. Almost no one I know works past 72.

Crispy!

[ZULU]

Hell just got another attorney

[DivineMomentsOfTruth]

The President will be criticized for rallying now.

[libertylover]

Almost a year? How so?

[Seaplaner]

Yes indeed. Ginsburg was a very flawed and misguided person. But she was not deliberately evil. So this is not the time to mock her. Like you, I hope she finds peace.

Conservatives in general, and FReepers specifically, always hold such reverence for life and death; and, when some evil person dies, we still offer kindness for the fam and respect for the (former) human.

I recall the kind words (including mine) for the murderer and human fungus that was Ted Kennedy. Now we can be more incisive and honest, but in the first days of passing, we were all so gracious and genial.

I don’t believe he would break the news about her death at a rally.

[CatDancer]

And I already got zotted by Facebook for my comment about this witch. Took them about 20 seconds.

[inchworm]

He needs to nominate the lady on his list in her 40’s with 7 kids. I don’t see Lisa or Susan balking on confirming her and then Romney will look like the lone a$$ crack.

[Widget Jr]

I’m keeping it civil... on this thread.

[DivineMomentsOfTruth]

May she Rest in Peace after her major debriefing.
