Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has passed away

[Rasputin_Vol]

there shouldn't be but I can't say there won't be

Seriously? Can you imagine trying to push through a judicial nomination while we are counting chads this December?

you are a ghoul

You are being unfair to ghouls everywhere.

Don Lemon.... "Millions of people all over America will remember where they were when they heard the news" ROTFLMAO

The left is in full sob mode right now.

Tonight's installment of "there's always a tweet"

IMO she should have resigned a while ago and enjoyed the latter years. Maybe she did enjoy them. I hope she did. Didn’t seem like remaining a justice really allowed her to do that.

Too soon...

Next week?

Exactly. Honestly. This is now the same situation as 2015/16. Except don’t nominate because it’s useless. Just wait.

It will be the same situation if Biden wins and the Democrats take back the Senate. You will have both a lame duck president and a lame duck Senate. I think enough Republicans would eventually come out against a confirmation vote - if that is the scenario that played out.

You are so out of touch with reality its comical at this point.

One of the two of us is indeed out of touch.
But it's more just your incredibly narrow perspective.
You are approaching OrangeCrush territory. Existing in a 2d world.

Well, there is not really enough time for that.

That's the first time I've ever seen a hint of humanity from him. And It didn't appear to be sarcastic.

It doesn’t get more humane than campaigning on economic opportunity for every person and specifically blacks Hispanics and working class person of any race creed and color, and then actually fighting unfair trade practices and revising ****** trade deals to make that actually happen.

What is not humane is an “economic new normal” platform of 1-2% growth in perpetuity “jobs that aren’t coming back”, and the promise of a government plantation of subsistence living if we would only eat the rich in sufficient numbers. Which requires just listening and believing the great Oz and never looking behind the curtain at the simple math.

I bet there are more than a few liberals cursing her under their breath right now.

It's more that they are just saddened by the cosmic injustice.

It’s the same situation in that it’s a presidential not a congressional election year. Let the next president nominate the judge and the congress can do their thing.

Obviously it’s a sad thing to happen. It’s obviously going to be political fodder. Would have been less so had she resigned. Anyway, it’s going to cause some extreme divisiveness and if the result if the election goes to the Supreme Court it will be even moreso. Very bad all around.

Yeah I'm sure that cosmic injustice is really biting at them.

I think the point of the tweet was valid and insightful though

Well, there is not really enough time for that.

The senate is a judge confirming machine. It’s only deterred when Dems accuse innocent people of running underage sex rings

He was somewhat justified on this one. Her comments were out of line.

It is the sort of thing that will draw the sincerity of that photo op into question.

 

[1972 Grad]

RIP.......She was a hero to millions.

When the Trump catastrophe began, I said there were three people who deserved to live until the nightmare was over......
John Lewis, RBG, and Jimmy Carter.

How incredibly sad on so many levels.

Is that Carter fellow still alive? Asking for a friend.

Hello my name is John Fund and would you please give a contribution to our stop Trump nomination campaign. We take CC's and have amassed $100M tonight.

 

[1972 Grad]

Well she is to blame for that, she should have retired 5 years ago.

I just told my wife the same thing and read this 2 minutes later.

luther just gave him his kiss of death.

Wonder how much this will rekindle how Democrats treated Kavanaugh

Sooner or later if the same cosmic injustices keep happening , there should be a looking in the mirror moment . There’s always a reason things happen .
