[Olog-hai]

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said Thursday that having only eight high court justices isn’t good, resulting in some 4-4 splits this year that denied litigants an opinion.

That that means no precedents are set and essentially a Supreme Court review has been denied, Ginsburg told a gathering of court officials in upstate New York. […]

“Eight is not a good number,” she said. “Next year I anticipate reporting on the decisions of a full bench.” …

Her thoughts are only evil continually. Well, if it stops her in pushing the left-wing agenda, it has to be good.

[bkopto]

Yeah, that’s the point, you old leftist, constitution-hating biddy.

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

Yep. Not good for YOU.

You old cow.

[Next year I anticipate reporting on the decisions of a full bench.]

And maybe she will resign to give President Trump the opportunity to nominate a new jurist that is more reflective of common Americans and our values. Please.

[airborne]

Then she should resign.

Good! They quit doing their job of just striking down unconstitutional laws and letting Congress try again a long time ago.

[safeasthebanks]

Tell her to resign right now and then there will be 7, problem solved.

[ViLaLuz]

Then retire, you old witch.

[GreyHoundSailor]

I wouldn’t mind if the shriveled up old hag just got carried away in a light breeze. Who’d miss her?

[Vision]

Good, you're an America hating freak.

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

OK, then you quit, Ruthie, and we can have an odd number of justices.

[lurk]

Hamstringing evil is good.

[Secret Agent Man]

Too bad. Weve had plent of stretches before with less than a full curt and they didnt whine about it as much as these scrotus waifs.

[Secret Agent Man]

Dying would also be acceptable.

Justice Ginsburg,

You are entirely correct. You should solve this by resigning immediately. That will leave seven justices, and no split decisions. Mr. Trump will have you replaced quickly after his inauguration.

[Lurker]

So resign.

L

[blackdog]

For a judicial body who finds almost every case is not going to be heard, she suddenly is concerned about ham strings?

[Texas Eagle]

Then resign.

[smokingfrog]

7 would be better.

She should quit.
