If anything resembling 0bamacare ever again rears it’s ugly head, how many ordinary folks pushing 80 in the same situation healthwise as RBG would receive this same level of “Cadillac care”, or would they be sent home with a morphine drip while their loved ones get their affairs in orders. But not a supreme intellectual like RBG, only the best and brightest, Jewish and Whitest Drs. and specialists will do for our little Ruthie.

I know that, in our local medical center there is a wing for the elites.

“Trump better make up a short list of ‘moderate’ conservative judges... It would be an insult to replace her with a right wing judge, so he should just pick a judge who will follow the constitution and not his ‘feelings’.”

Any judge who does not make it mandatory for all 4 year olds to be transexual will be considered a far right kook by the left

The House has no role in confirming Judges. It is up to the Senate and the Senate Judiciary Committee where the Republicans have a Majority and enough votes to confirm a trump appointment.

She wont retire as long as she can breath. She can be on life support and her Staff will render decisions in her name.

before you call me a liar, I just found out that the search recognizes capital letters. I entered "ginsburg"and that gets nothing. However if I enter "Ginsburg" everything comes up

I learned something new.

my apologies for the heinous process crime

Yes, but she will hang on for as long as possible, until she draws her last breath. She had looked forward to having our First Woman President appoint her successor, but now has to face the prospect of her successor being chosen by Donald Trump. That thought alone will keep her going as long as possible. Not thru 2020, I believe.

Honestly, from what I’ve seen of friends and family who’ve had that diagnosis, I’d be surprised if she survives more than another month or two, if that long .. .and she IS 85 or 86, so less likely to bounce back or lengthen her time.
