Dear Leftists And Fake Conservatives (But I Repeat Myself), Do You Really Not Get The Joke About RBG?<br>We Really Don't Believe She Is Dead...

Dear Leftists And Fake Conservatives (But I Repeat Myself), Do You Really Not Get The Joke About RBG?
We Really Don't Believe She Is Dead...

...But we do believe that she is infirm and incapable of performing her duties as an associate justice of the United States Supreme Court. The joke is simply an exaggeration of her current condition, and isn't meant to be taken literally, unless you are so profoundly stupid that you can't appreciate basic human discourse. In which case, the suggestion that you #LearnToCode is actually a bit too advanced for you. Perhaps #LearnToEspresso is more your speed.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg was seen in public Monday. Conspiracy theorists still insist she’s dead.

A falsehood has been spreading in dark corners of the Internet that Ruth Bader Ginsburg is dead — and in the hours after he published his report, conspiracy theorists pelted Barnes with their doubt-mongering. Photos were not allowed at the event, so one of the doubters emailed Barnes 21 questions about Ginsburg’s appearance — the size of her security detail, what gender they were, for example — telling Barnes that if he did not answer every single one of them, it would be a sign his article was not to be believed.

See? Get the joke now?

No...probably not, because as self-appointed members of the elite, you believe that there is some immutable entitlement to these positions of great power, and we prols must respect that while RBG can't possibly do her job, she does not have to give up her crown until she chooses. Of course if you knew anything about American history, you would realize that we fought a war because we simply did not want to be ruled from afar by hereditary, unaccountable noblemen.

Do you see any connection here? Again...probably not, and that is why we got Trump, and will probably get more Trump!

By the way...sure...you can trot out a few lunatics who truly believe she is dead and being held in a reanimation chamber in Area 51. But FIRE DOESN'T MELT STEEL! See? Two can play at that game.

1 Justice Ginsburg is not in the office today, again.

She is on her way to find Vladimir Putin.

She said it was bad enough when Putin conspired with Donald Trump to fix the election and deny Hillary Clinton what was rightfully hers.

But then Putin stole Justice Ginsburg's '69 Mustang and...killed her little dog, Daisy.

She told me she will not stop until she has exacted full retribution.

She gave the Russians a choice. She told them they can either hand over Putin or die screaming alongside him.

The Russians already know Justice Ginsburg well. They call her "Baba Yaga."

Actually, Justice Ginsburg isn't exactly the Boogeyman. She's the one you send when you want to kill the Boogeyman.

They said Justice Ginsburg once killed three men in a bar. With a pencil.

Justice Ginsburg told me she is bringing case files with her and expects from time to time to step into a nightclub to settle a score and kill numerous people, after which she will call in to me with her rulings.

Pointing at your own foibles and laughing at them is something that an arrogant, joyless, sanctimonious scold simply cannot do. Their hubris leads them to imagine themselves as predictable, and presently perfect or within a stone's throw of it.

Admitting imperfection is utterly alien to the mindset, which is why laughing at them drives them up a wall.

In general the right seeks to roll back government interference in your day to day lives. That's their goal. Not slavery, not tyranny, just leave us the hell alone. Often they decide, hey, the constitution doesn't require this. They never decide to ban it, just that the government can't do it.

Even on abortion - they might decide that hey, the constitution doesn't mandate a woman gets to terminate her pregnancy any old time. Then the states and the congress get to regulate and set limits. That's it. I doubt any will outright ban the practice.

And We, the People, have been lied to so often by the media, that we are angry and now will NOT take them at their unsubstantiated word.

192 It may be time to finally say goodbye to the Opportunity rover. NASA will hold a press conference at 2 p.m. ET today to discuss the results of recovery efforts since a dust storm encircled Mars last year.

Opportunity hasn't communicated with engineers since June 10. Dust has blocked out the sunlight, and even the expected winds from November through January haven't helped to clear Opportunity's sensors and panels. Engineers tried different things to revive Opportunity, from sending repeated signals and commands to attempt to fix other potential issues. They've sent more than 835 recovery commands that remain unanswered.

It's likely the press conference will announce the end of the mission, holding something akin to a funeral for the solar-powered rover.

You might even start to figure out who's actually making the laws around here. Hint: It's not anyone you, or I, or anyone else have ever heard of.

287 212 the photo free report of an RBG public sighting only fuels speculation, especially since the "stunt" was done right before her no show for SOTU. The lack of any real contact or report on her health fuel even more warranted concern, concern that she is voting without being present or aware of the case at hand.

There have been cases of justices hanging on well beyond the time they could serve in any real function going back, probably, to the early 1800's.

There are famous ones of justices with dementia, or who suffered a stroke, and who refused to resign from the late 1800's. In more recent times, look at Justices' whittaker and Murphy.

Murphy was a degenerate drug addict who wrote, allegedly, none of the opinions with his name on it. This was in the 1940s IIRC.

UNDERTAKER: (Graham Chapman) Morning!

MAN: (John Cleese) Ah, good morning.

UNDERTAKER: What can I do for you, squire?

M: Um, well, I wonder if you can help me. Um, you see, my SCOTUS Justice has just died.

U: Ah, well, we can 'elp you. We deal with stiffs.

M: (aghast) What?

U: Well there are three things we can do with your mother. We can burn her, bury her, or dump her.

M: Dump her?

U: Dump her in the Potomac.

M: (still aghast) What?

U: Oh, did you like her?

M: Yes!

U: Oh well, we won't dump her, then. Well, what do you think: We can bury her or burn her?

M: Well, um, which would you recommend?

U: Well
they're both nasty. If we burn her, she gets stuffed in the flames,
crackle, crackle, crackle, which is a bit of a shock if she's not quite
dead. But quick. And then we give you a handful of the ashes, which you
can pretend were hers.

M: (timidly) Oh.

U: Or, if we bury her she gets eaten up lots of weevils and nasty
maggots, which as I said before is a bit of a shock if she's not quite
dead.

M: I see. Well, she's definitely dead.

U: Where is she?

M: She's in this sack.

U: Let's 'ave a look.

U: She looks quite young.

M: Yes, she was.

(x) The President

(x) The Senate Judiciary Committee

In my view, the former would be impolitic to issue the inquiry, but the former would have every reasonable reason to force the issue, as it's directly under their actual charter.

This though, might require Lindsey to upgrade to the Backbone 3.0 Badass Program Update.

and pictures were not taken and leaked. And nobody thought to take
pictures of her entering or leaving the event, or her home.

Agree 100%. The "no pictures" event is absolute bullshit. RBG is a public figure, and a living saint to the Leftards. If she were out and about, some fan, or some paparazzi would have snapped a few pics.

423 A woman who was bound and determined to not retire when she really should've, so she could be the one to swear in President Cankles and go down in history is not likely to ever abdicate her place on the court until she's carried off in a pine box. She's not gonna make it to 2020 (or I'd be extremely surprised), but according to Lizzie Warren, Trump will likely be out of office or behind bars before then. So when she passes away before the election, the wails and hysteria from the left that he can't replace RGB will be in fully in place in the public discourse.

424 I assume that RBG has a security detail, but maybe I'm wrong.

When people walk in with the MIB, it's usually attention grabbing and somebody snaps a pic.

What's more interesting is how RBG looked resplendent and chipper according to all reports and yet is still playing the illness card.

In the bartending business when you call in sick and someone tells me they saw you at a live show looking resplendent and youthful, you get your ass fired. But then I guess that's the perks of being a SCJ and not a bartender.

Congress realized after Marbury v Madison how useful it would be if the USSC would act as a gap filler to their ineptitude when they wrote law...because law making is actually difficult shit to get done right the first time.

So now they write shitty laws and sop the problems they create off on the USSC. And then they carry on with golf, grifting and their mistresses.

451 My Mom had dementia, She died at 86, so I visited the Nursing homes a lot, people at 86 are infirm as it is, some though are spry and retain their health and mental abilities into the 90's, but that is rare. Most are not sure what the day is or what happened yesterday.
One fact is, when they get sick, just a minor illness they are devastated and lung cancer surgery is catastrophic.Recovery is long and probably not survivable.If they do recover they lose more of what they had and never get it back.
The fact is Ruth bless her heart was born in 1930, she was ten years old when WW2 started, fifteen when it ended.WW2 is going to be 100 years old in 2040 which is closer than you think.This lady is comatose at best on full life support at worst and simply being kept alive by the wishes of the family and her party.
