Ruth Bader Ginsburg says she wasn't '100 percent sober' when she nodded off during President Barack Obama's State of the Union address last month.
The 81-year-old Supreme Court Justice blamed her colleague Anthony Kennedy for poorly timed catnap, telling attendees of a Smithsonian Associates event in Washington, D.C. that he brought a 'very fine California wine' to dinner that was too good not to indulge in.

“Oh wait ... republicants!”
You’ve broken the code!!! McScrotum Chin and his buddies in the Senate would happily “confirm” Ruth Buzzy’s replacement no matter who the president is.
She did not say she was drunk, just that she had had alcohol.
I congratulate her - she understands Obama - after hearing him I should have had a few drinks - he is so terrible!!
Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg says she wasn't '100 percent sober' when she nodded off during the president's State of the Union address last month. - Ginsburg says that former Justice David Souter used to keep her awake, but now she's sandwiched between Anthony Kennedy, her left, and Stephen Breyer, her right, and 'theyre sort of timid about it'
Check out neat graphics and humorous comments.
Thanks, Slings and Arrows. She probably needed a few drinks to find enough courage to listen to 0 prattle on, and on, about himself for an hour.
I was shocked when I read Levin’s book “Men In Black”. The SC has had more than it’s share of ne’er do wells. Rapists (Douglas), drunks, suicidal lunatics (Rutledge), anti-semites (McReynolds), KKK member Hugo Black, dementia, thieves (Abe Fortas) etc.
It’s laughable that these people are given so much respect and are seen as the final words of wisdom on important Constitutional issues.
LOL! Post of the day.
So true
Yeah, if I were her, I’d be drunk during the SOTU, too!
DANG!
They were all drunk. How else could they get through it?
O - M - G. This is what America has turned into.
Can’t blame them, really.
She’s trying to one up Hillary.
I look forward to the counterattack.
Bingo. There are no coincidences with this administration.
Can you blame her?
Hate when headlines are so deceiving, even when it goes against someone I’m not in synch with. It’s just dishonest. “Not 100% sober” after a glass or two of wine isn’t exactly “drunk.”
But *I* would have to get totally fall down, out of my mind drunk to sit thru an Obama SOTU.
Barry’s speeches are why the Good Lord made Propofol.
Never watched on through, never will. Now I won’t even watch clips. Can’t bear to hear his voice OR see his mug.
