RBG scare: David Axelrod warns Supreme Court vacancy fight could 'tear this country apart'
Washington Examiner ^ | Aug. 23, 2019 | Daniel Chaitin

That didn't take long.

A former Obama adviser set the stage for a potentially nasty confirmation fight in the Senate next year within an hour of the Supreme Court announcing Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg recently completed three weeks of radiation treatment after doctors found a localized cancerous tumor on her pancreas.

Ginsburg, who is 86, has battled various illnesses over the last 20 years. The Supreme Court said in a statement Friday that she “tolerated the treatment well" and concluded that there is no evidence of disease elsewhere in her body.

A little more research yielded this:

The overall five-year survival rate for pancreatic cancer is just 9 percent.

Ginsburg is a three-time cancer survivor, beating colon cancer in 1999, pancreatic cancer in 2009 and, most recently, lung cancer in 2018.

It's getting a little spooky, is it not?

Axelrod is not making an observation, but a threat.

The U.S. Constitution gives the president and the Senate this vital role. Article II, Section 2, clause 2 states that the President “shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint ... Judges of the supreme Court.”

Right there is your problem Axle, Republicans control both the White House and Senate. Too bad…...

David, the left is already in the process of tearing this country apart.

See for instance, its contamination of our education system, its open border/every vote should count position, its attempt to dismantle the Electoral College and its threat to the 2d amendment for just 4 items.

Only a silly bitch would think the left will be confronted by nothing but snowflakes. Hope to see you there.

I wonder if there’s evidence of any organs left in her body.

They're stamped 'Made in China'...

We have the supreme court we have because Senate Republicans are pussies and traitors.

Pull out that list.

I'm giving her a month.

Axelrod: Obama co-conspirator. All one needs to know.

“I read this as a confession that they have another rape hoax lined up.”

Or if Trump nominates a woman— which is quite likely; I believe Amy Coney Barrett’s name has already been floated— we can count on a parade of transgender “women” talking about their gashes to CNN, while the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence go rollerskating thru the chambers.

Maybe the DNC will whack RBG so they can manufacture an outrage issue for 2020.

Tinfoil? A lot of us called Epstein correctly.

So replacing RGB with a strictly constitutional following replacement will “tear this country apart”? Odd that....

translation of the title: Democrats will tear the country apart.

Better translation: Don't try to restore the Constitution and the rule of law, or we (the left) will tear the country apart.

The new choice must be a man who is solidly in favor of our Second Amendment first and foremost. The election is already starting to get away from us with the President talking about signing an anti-Second-Amendment bill, obviously to appeal to voters who trust anecdotes and their animal emotions more than human reason and analysis.

Oh yeah, remember Murkowsky too. There was that pic with her cowering before Feinstein.

Jerry Nadler, Henry Waxman and Micheal Moore will all claim that Barrett tried to rape them in an earlier life.
