I am here to bury Ruth Bader Ginsberg and not to praise her

[the_real_Barleycorn]

Even Fox News is running a screen shot of RBG with a small tribute to her. Never saw this for Scalia. Also, more talk of what did RBG mean to girls. Why don't we ask what the first woman on the Supreme Court, Sandra Day O'Connor, did for girls 12 years earlier.
Once again, I'm making the point that the media, the democrats, and the GOP are fawning over someone for...just because she was a woman but not the first.

If you were as screwed up in the head as Yssup Rider/HoeHummer, wouldn't you talk to yourself as well?

Yes, they are overdoing it to put it on the record.

Eventually, many will see she was a purely partisan politician pretending to serve her country while instead serving her own selfish interest of leftism and feminism.

It may but it, at the same time, can just be a claim to try to rally people to the “dying wish of an icon” , giving words, where there were no words, in essence, the death can be used

not the same but I’m reminded of Jesse Jackson smearing mlk’s blood on his shirt to try to develop a false picture and be mlk’s heir, grabbing cynical advantage of any death

[nevergaveitathought]

and, although Ginsburg likely held the view of her “dying words”, her “dying words” if they were such, and if not we’ll make them her dying words, can be useful, as has been used the most infamous of false rallying cries, “hands up, don’t shoot”

The left cares about effect not truth

RBG's 'dying words' have been ballyhooed through the :SM as a reason to delay a SC selection until after jan, 2021.

I have seen no documentation of her 'dying words" - and think it is just DPST made up Lie - typical propaganda.

Regardless - RBG and any last 'messages' - carry no weight on the selection process of the next SC justice.

obama’s words during his presidency's last year was,” president’s do not stop working during the final year of their term. neither should a senator.”

Obama did not state his exception - a Republican POTUS!

Exactly, she was in the way more than anything.

mayhaps the exception should just be understood

much like the word “you” in an imperative sentence

NGIT - thank You, good Sir
Methinks you give the party of Teachers Unions educational levels - far too much credit - they are unable to comprehend the meaning of your post.


it is not 'ebonics' - and therefore is 'racist'. To DPST's

AGREE

I also feel sad when an 87 or a 107 year old dies, sad as the passage of a life well lived.

Ultimate white privilege? Not in anyway, you are completely out of order; and you know it. She was Jewish, and a woman: she had many opportunities denied to her for either or both reasons, and you know it.

I, and most conservative people, disagree with her political thinking. But, if one stops to think about it, there is a justification behind it. While I disagree with the far left opinion of late term abortion, I do agree that women should have a right to decide when they want to have children. I believe that the political involvement with this type of question is inappropriate: it should be a discussion with the medical profession not the political left or right.

The tactic RGB used for the rights of women was to defend the discrimination of men: Such as, men were obligated to serve on juries and women were not.

Today, boys still have to register for the selective service (draft) when they turn 18, women do not. Is that fair to the boys, or just a indication that boys are different from girls?

RGB was correct in much of what she said about the need for women's rights. RGB was wrong when she stuck with the strict every more socialistic leaning of the Democratic Party, that party that is totally different from the Democratic Party of the 1940s and 1950s. But like most people who will vote against Trump this fall, Ruth did not recognize the negative changes in the Democratic Party because she was stuck with it. The Republican pasty needs to have a worthy opposition which can only come after the total collapse of the Democratic Party. The re-election of Trump will bring about many more needed changes for both parties. The Republican Party will survive with whatever the outcome, but the Democratic Party will not survive for long. A swift change in the Democratic Party would be beneficial for a needed pragmatic future, much better than a slow death which would be demanded by those who hold on to power with one hand, clutching to life with the other, while watching death stand over them.

Her actions are the reason we will now have another so called “constitutional crisis”.
If she was such a great patriot, why did she hang on until the bitter end? There is only one reason. Her hatred and distain for President Trump.
That attitude will now cause untold mayhem.
Her legacy......Party Hack.
