Ruth Bader Ginsburg Hospitalized

Supreme Court Justice Ruth "The Mummy" Bader Ginsburg fell and broke three of her ribs. She is currently staying at George Washington University Hospital for treatment and observations. This is a repeat of an injury she had in 2012 and she has also survived cancer. For what it's worth, she seems to have very good genes and a phenomenal will.

There's nothing sinister going on here, like when Scalia was found murdered in a creepy Eyes Wide Shut motel on the US-Mexico border ("All Italian men sleep with pillows over their faces" alleges the commies), but with someone so old even a relatively minor injury like this could be life-threatening, and will likely be impossible to fully recover from.

Ginsburg, out of hubris, decided not to step down during Obama's term as President, to be replaced by a much younger leftist who would steer the country into the ground for the next 30 years. Instead she decided to hang on until the Trump administration where it is most likely she will either die or become too infirm to fulfill her duties and be replaced with someone on the right, tipping the balance of power in the opposite direction for the next two generations.

What would be best, for everyone, would be for Justice Ginsburg to make a speedy recovery and then come to her senses and retire like former Justice Kennedy. We don't live forever. You've had a good life and a long career, and there comes a time to rest on your laurels and let the younger generation take over.
