Sen. Ted Cruz: After Ginsburg -- 3 reasons why Senate must confirm her successor before Election Day
Fox News ^ | 9/20/2020 | Sen. Ted Cruz

On Friday, our nation lost a historic Supreme Court Justice: Ruth Bader Ginsburg. She was a brilliant justice, a legendary advocate, a careful lawyer, and, as only the second woman to ever serve on the Supreme Court, a trailblazer. She led an extraordinary life that shaped the lives of others and she leaves behind her an extraordinary legacy.

Much like the news in 2016 of the great Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia’s passing during an election year, Friday’s news was instantaneously followed by the question of when to fill the vacancy that now stands on the Court.

That is a real shame because this personality nonsense is not germane to the issue at hand.

You don't get the point either. This isn't a personality issue for me.

I have no problem with the "“damned by faint praise” aspect of the statements, it's the "no condemnation at all" that irks me. The good with the bad should be stated.
"While beloved by many she was as equally reviled by many others, especially those in the "Right to Life" movement." (see what I mean?)
All of this "sunshine and roses" BS nauseates me.

And BS on all of this BS of not speaking ill of the dead.
How many times have liberals celebrated the death of good conservatives?!
Hell, they speak ill of the living and celebrate the anticipated death of conservatives.

Pantywaist mentality by conservatives, IMO but it's my opinion and if nobody likes it then TOO BAD.

I'm glad the baby murdering harridan is dead.
