Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg had two cancerous nodules removed from her left lung Friday at a New York hospital, the Supreme Court announced.

There is no evidence of any remaining disease, says a court spokesperson, nor is there evidence of disease elsewhere in the body.

Lung cancer is deadly and can be rapid as well. I have seen it in our family.

The only test for LIEberalism is a behavioral one!

If it walks like a LIEberal, talks like a LIEberal and votes like a LIEberal, it is a LIEberal!

They said her condition is "resting comfortably"....to me, that means she will not make it more than a few days.

Resting comfortably is NOT a condition.

Excellent question. I would assume that cancerous cells are active, even if hidden, throughout her body. Our daughter aged 42 has stage 3 medistatic breast cancer. Reading up about her cancer (she has a mutant gene) has schooled me about the insidious part of this disease. Once it’s identified you just never know where it will pop up next. I think she is medistatic.

Nice memories of “Song of the South”.

Many young people have never seen that movie, because Disney has refused to release on home video, or show in theaters. And they admit at Disney that it’s due to political correctness, and the alleged stereotypes in the movie.

This is a good example of liberals wanting to censor something, when liberals claim to oppose censorship of artistic creations. Liberals are ok with “Piss Christ” type displays, but ban a great old movie such as “Song of the South”.

FWIW Brenden Dilley claims that Trump has had and been holding her resignation letter for the last 3 1/2 weeks.

Hmmm. Same side as the three broken ribs.... I don’t think she had broken ribs, it was a biopsy.

All we get are lies until they can’t hide the truth anymore.

LIEberals NEVER retire when they can stay alive and keep on screwing up the country!

C.f. Ted Kennedy, John McCain, whatshisname Byrd, etc. etc.

She’s not going to last another 2 years.

That is sad. I wish her a speedy recovery from the fire.

Agree.

Today’s detection and surgical procedures, for many lung surgeries, have advanced amazingly.

Maybe a side incision, through the ribs, was all she had to have.

I wish her a complete recovery.

And, that she now choose to retire to enjoy the blessings she has received, and spend time with her family and friends.

Any chance of slipping a brain in the old crone’s empty noggin? Even one from Abby Normal would be an improvement.

Just being put under is very dangerous to mental capacity at that age. Doctors refused to operate on my Dad at 88 for that reason when he had prostate cancer. He died two years later in his sleep of natural causes, so they were right.

Individual cases vary widely when it comes to cancer.

I read they discovered the cancer when she injured her ribs...now it makes me wonder if the rib injury was a DEMOCRAT PLANNED FAIRY TALE...

she left hospital fast and was reported back to work fast..(and not one photo published to prove this ) and that is not believable at someone bent over at 85 years old...
She is back to working with her personal trainer...bet that trainer had to sign a paper not to disclose any info...

What a bunch of Liar’s this U.S. GOVERNMENT is full of ...
