Has anyone seen this woman? She'd neuter any American male hero. She makes Janet Reno look normal. Yuck!

Ruth Ginsberg Should be taken out and hung! If what she advocates isn't treason, I don't know what is.

"Laws are made for men of ordinary understanding, and should therefore be construed by the ordinary rules of Common Sense. Their meaning is not to sought for in metaphysical subtleties, which may make anything mean everything or nothing, at pleasure." - Thomas Jefferson.

"A constitution... is to a government what the laws made afterwards by that government are to a court of Judicature. The court of Judicature does not make the laws, neither can it alter them; it only acts in conformity to the laws made: and the government is in like manner governed by the constitution." - Thomas Paine, Rights of Man, 1791.

"In a well-ordered republic it should never be necessary to resort to extra-constitutional measures; for although they may for the time be beneficial, yet the precedent is pernicious, for if the practice is once established of disregarding the laws for good objects, they will in a little while be disregarded under that pretext for evil purposes." - Niccoló Machiavelli, The Discourses. 1517.

"As good habits of the people require good laws to support them, so laws, to be observed, need good habits on the part of the people. Besides, the constitution and laws established in a republic at its very origin, when men were still pure, no longer suit when men have become corrupt and bad." - Niccoló Machiavelli, The Discourses. 1517.

The left doesn't believe the Constitution should be the bench mark of court decisions

There are a significant number of people who believe this and post on FR. You'll find them on the evolution threads promoting atheism, on the gay threads defending gay behavior and on threads dealing with religion. It's no secret. They freely admit that the Founders either didn't mean what they said or that they couldn't have forseen advancements in science.

I wonder why this op-ed didn't note that Chief Justice Rehnquist penned Nevada Department of Human Resources v. Hibbs?

As for Justice Ginsburg, I disagree with her 'jurisprudence' in virtually every respect [just to be sure my previous remark doesn't appear to suggest otherwise..]

She needs a bag over her head and should be made to recite the Golden Rule. Then maybe she could live with herself.

Although this would be satisfying, impeachment and removal would suffice in a pinch.

Unfortunately, "none of the above" is the correct answer for what will actually happen!

Of course. We are so much wiser today than those narrow-minded old 18th Century men!

Third, Ginsburg's comment was indelibly characteristic of the biased language of radical feminists who hate everything masculine. The Lone Ranger and the Texas Rangers, God bless them, are very masculine.

What, there are no Rangettes???

"Justice Ginsburg would put a dress on the Lone Ranger "

I would vote for putting dresses on the Senate Republicans along with high heels and the apropriate make up.

Ginsburg's writing and speaking style is usually somewhere between convoluted and obscure, but she delighted the new group with a noteworthy triple-entendre. Referring to Supreme Court decisions, she urged us to get rid of "the Lone Ranger mentality."

The writer then suggests what the intended three points were. What is pathetic is that the writer, and probably Mrs. Justice Ginsburg, as well, do not apparently realize that the "Lone Ranger" mentality--the confident individual able to both act--and take full responsibility for his actions--with intelligence, character & principle, without being dependent upon constant reinforcement by a group or committee--is the very mentality, which made modern America possible.

This new group, of course, is to the Constitution what the ACLU is to religious freedom, what the NAACP is to the Negro, what the ADL is to the Jew--in short the despicable mortal enemy of the cause to which the respective Fabian Socialists, in each group involved, pretend.

Unless, and until one fully understands the Fabian technique--and the total immorality of the Fabian Socialist--one can never really appreciate the full duplicity of our enemies. Here they are mocking the American ethos. But, after all, they have been doing that for a Century.

The only way to end life tenure's are impeachment, which no current conservative/pubbie in office has the balls, desire, or intelligence to initiate.

The other involves lots of rope, some trees, and a few hundred thousand really pissed off, determined citizens.

My recent break point was RNG's comment on world/euro law basically overriding our constitution.

I don't particularly care which way it goes, first would be the best for all involved, but the second option does exist and should not be dismissed, we are a country founded on revolution after all...

The very fact this got so little outrage when she so blithely announced it speaks volumes more about the American People than does about the pathetic Ginsgurg.

You're on to something. Many psychiatrists, such as bioenergeticists (cf Alexander Lowen), recognize the expression of the psyche in body appearance. Ginsburg's appearance is obviously pathologically deformed. Can her mind be any different? Her extreme demands for preferential government treatment for women would seem to come from an inner expereince of powerlessness. I mean who could not feel powerless in a body like that? An unhealthy mind in an unhealthy body if you ask me. And she is on the SCOTUS!
