    Missed there are two main kinds.
    The kind that kills you within 12 months of diagnosis, about 90%
    and the kind Steve Jobs had that can last longer.
    RBG has the Steve Jobs kind.

    Spite for Trump is the only thing keeping her semi-upright at this point.

    When you live to hate Trump.

    The absolute state of the left.

    Yes it was but I do get to post while working but I am not advocating what you are which is for someone to quit their career because you want something from their absence..

    Is that the best you can do to insult someone who was on the bench long before Trump ever entered politics?

    I'm expecting that the Supreme Court is going to have a right-handed lean for years to come.

    She had a less invasive flavor last time. This time it was malignant, and it isn't isolated to her pancreas. Radiation treatment. What part of that, did you miss?

    The right is praying for her to die . . . today . . . in great pain.

    Maybe Bill Maher feels that way ... but no one on the right does.

    Ginsberg is not likely to die before the next election and conservatives who know her like her. Are you aware of anyone who is actually praying for her to die?

    Yup, a relative by marriage, a lawyer in our town who is fully in the Trump camp and the far right of a Mormon crazy sect.

    I wish her well and that she serve America. I wish Trump well when he actually serves America.

    What if the only reason Ruth is alive is because of that good government healthcare?

    Your Mormon relative is a real oddball. Conservatives who have known Ginsburg are very fond of her.

    "Known for her liberal leaning views, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has become a progressive hero. That doesn’t mean she doesn’t defend the court and her colleagues on the other side of the ideological aisle."
    THE NEW YORK TIMES, A guide to Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s conservative friendships on the court, July 26, 2019.

    Actually, the MSN.com article does not say that. A o, giving you the benefit of the doubt, I shitarted checking other news sources.

    From CNBC (https://www.cnbc.com/2019/08/26/her...ruth-bader-ginsburgs-latest-cancer-scare.html):

    "In a statement, the Supreme Court said Ginsburg was treated for a "tumor on her pancreas," though it did not specify which kind of cells were involved. A biopsy performed in July confirmed that the tumor was malignant and "localized," meaning it had not spread to other parts of her body."

    From Fox News (https://www.foxnews.com/politics/ruth-bader-ginsburg-notorious-rbg-buffalo-honorary-law-degree):

    "The 86-year-old justice recently completed three weeks of radiation therapy at a New York City hospital to treat a malignant tumor on her pancreas. In a statement this past Friday, the Supreme Court justice said there was no evidence the disease remains."

    So....where is the new source that says it wasn't isolated to her pancreas?
