At the risk of sounding unpopular, fuck her. People tried to get her to retire when Obama was president and the democrats controlled the senate. She refused.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has a message for liberals who have been saying the 81-year-old should step down while Democratic President Barack Obama is in office so he can appoint her successor: Who are you going to get who will be better than me?
Referring to the political polarization in Washington and the unlikelihood that another liberal in her mold could be confirmed by the Senate, Ginsburg, the senior liberal on the nine-member bench, asked rhetorically, “So tell me who the president could have nominated this spring that you would rather see on the court than me?”
She just set back leftist causes by 30 years because her ego wanted an extra 6 years on the court and she didn’t think there was anyone in a nation of 300 million people as good as her.
Fuck her.
