    Ruth Bader Ginsburg treated for pancreatic cancer
    https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/r...as-court-spokesman/ar-AAGeHUg?ocid=spartanntp
    Ok, goodbye Ruth, it's pancreatic cancer. Although she is alright for now, following her radiation treatment, this form of cancer has few survivors. And cancer can come back or spread throughout the body.

    This could be bad news for Democrats because we don't know whether Ruth will last until a democratic government can be elected and appoint a democratic successor. Otherwise Trump will appoint her successor and it will be another right-wing conservative.

    This is bad news for South Africa.

    It doesn't look like Ruth will be retiring in South Africa whose constitution she loves so much.

    No.

    But, cancer deaths are inevitable. especially ones that are on the pancreas. So I'm talking reality when I say goodbye to Ruth.

    Oh, and democrats are so afraid of Trump replacing Ruth that they are badgering Ruth Ginsberg to stay on the supreme court. And not retire and enjoy her few years left.

    Her cognitive functions are impaired by such therapy even if not
    focused on the brain as John McCain's was. It goes with the territory.

    A good and honorable person would resign.
    As John McCain should have in his last year.
    A cognitively impaired "justice" not resigning is a greater threat than a Senator.

    Fear not, her assistants have likely been writing her opinions, for some time now, anyways.

    I have news for you - she's already survived pancreatic cancer once before. This is her second bout with it, in ten years.

    She is not getting any younger. Dont you think she deserves to spend her last days in the company of family, instead of dying on the bench, trying to outlive Trump's first term. Does she not deserve a day off?

    Ruth is toying with the opposition, just having fun with them.

    She will resign the day after a Dem President and a Dem Senate take office in January 2021.

    If I was her I'd definitely retire, life is about more than your career, but hey, to each their own.

    And if that fails to materialize or she dies first? Dont count unhatched eggs.

    Remember her saying she has 5 years? A fool says, I shall build a barn, tomorrow.

    We could all 3, wake up dead, tomorrow. Nothing is certain.

    Impeachment of SCOTUS judges and or packing the court are certain events as can be in the future.

    America will not allow the GOP to drag us back to the fifties.

    That is so pathetic! :roflol: Does Pelosi "pinky swear" to keep those 2018 campaign pledges >> impeach Kavanaugh / pack SCOTUS << if you make her speaker AGAIN? :lol: Meanwhile ... Trump's packed the federal circuit courts, going for 200 lifetime justices ... and very soon he'll seat another supreme court justice. Check your calendar. Unemployment rates are straight out of the 1950's ... Trump's America doesn't have room or want of demo-commie negativity.

    Toying with pancreatic cancer eh? :no: Prognosis: death within a year. Is Venezuela holding elections in 2020? 'Cause that's the closest demo-commie senate & POTUS you'll see sworn in.

    The pathetic road is the one back to the 1950s.

    That is not going to happen.

    The saying is "don't count yer chickens before they hatch". It is of no use to just counting eggs...They must be fertilized before they will have anything hatch from an ova.
