Ruth Bader Ginsburg Rails Against Trump.....

http://thinkprogress.org/justice/201...not-bad-thing/

What she has really shown in this ill advised rant is that her Socialist/Progressive/Democrat agenda comes before anything.

She is willing to support a Lying, MoneyGrubbing, Sexual Predator Enabling, (and now proven inept and stupid), cunt as her candidate??

THIS IS WHY Supreme Court Nominees are such a big issue in this election cycle. We do not need more Justices such as RBG who make decisions based solely on their political idealology and not on the merits of each individule case.
The SCOUS is politically divided, and will probably remain so regardless of who appoints a new member. The trick is to swing the balance so your side wins. They should be entirely neutral and just stick to law.

give me one reason why Ruth "roughing it" Ginsburg shouldn't be impeached?

Best reason I can think of. Otherwise, she has proven, by her very own statements, that she is unfit to serve.

Not exactly a rant, was it? Or a rail...

Reason Number One: Fuck you.

That makes about as much sense as your question, shitstorm.

Can you imagine if Justices Alito or Thomas had said something similar about Shrilley? There would be no end to the calls for them to step down.

And the calls for him to step down never stopped. So, what's your point?

Besides the one on your dunce cap, typical Shrilleryite.

According to the Washington Post, they can't find a single instance where a sitting member of The SCOTUS made such disparaging remarks about a Presidential Candidate.
First time for having a Jewish grandmother as a member?

On a side note; today I heard Allen Colmes make the claim that the SCOTUS is Conservative.
