Ginsburg missing Supreme Court arguments for 1st time.This is no big deal Roberts will step in and full her place on any court decisions. No need for democrats to worry. This would make it 4-4 and the lower court ruling would stand. Since Roberts was hacked by the Intel people under Brennan he has been the lefts bitch as they would say in prison

Time for Trump to make a personal visit and wish her a speedy recovery out of respect.

Just the rumor “he might” would send them scrambling if there are any shenanigans going on. lol

Is there a constitutional provision that says Justices can be there for life?

My bet is she doesn’t last through 2019.

I hope you win...this month.

To point out the obvious, doesn’t this remind of the recent events with the late John McCain? They said he was doing great until there was the small announcement that they had discontinued chemo, and 2-3 days later he died.

All else being equal, I’m guessing that she will be gone sometime this summer.

You're right, the media often told us how he was "fighting" it as if he was winning.

“Also she had 1/2 of her left lung removed, certainly nontrivial.”

Well, not quite:

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg Undergoes Surgery For Lung Cancer. ... and while it means a loss of 15 to 20 percent of the lung, it “can recover,” he said, with the other four lobes taking over ...

"while it means a loss of 15 to 20 percent of the lung,"

That's not quite accurate. The left lung has 2 lobes and the right has 3. She lost 20 percent of her lungs, 1 lobe out of her left lung, or 1 out of 5 lobes.

Read the article. Justice John Roberts rides to the rescue and allows Ginsburg to ‘participate from home’ based on written transcripts and briefs.

If you think the Kavanaugh hearings were raucous wait till they replace Ruth Buzzy.

The Democrats are too STUPID to realize how they completely over-played their hand during the Kavanaugh hearings -- they're going to go full-auto stupid during any hearings to replace Ruth Buzzy Ginsberg.

They'll make the Kavanaugh hearings look like a picnic by comparison. That'll of course be bad for any nominee, it may however wake some more people up as to how far left the Dem's have swung and cost them the 2020 elections in a landslide ....
