bdutton Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I don't wish cancer on anyone no matter their political leanings. Lost my dad to cancer. Hope she beats it. If not, at least she'll go on her own terms. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait a minute. You don't know that she would agree but if she does, you don't respect her? You cannot spell compassion without 'u'' Tom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're choice obviously but it sure seems like one's last healthy years can be better enjoyed doing something else. They don't want to give up the power and prestige of their position.

Don't discount the fact that even people we don't agree with (like RBG) have a passion for what they do and truly feel that they are making a difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The court can't venture too far from public opinion without facing a serious backlash You seriously think the court makes their decisions based on public opinion? Any judge that uses that as a basis for their decisions should be stripped of their robes. Your stupidity never disappoints 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Gal Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 I'm not sure which RBG thread I should be posted in. {insert dazed and confused emoji}Analysis: Justice Ginsburg’s “Bile Duct Stent” – A Treatment Typically Used in Advanced Cases to Provide End of Life Care </snip> (the statement put out) This is important because a biliary stent is only installed if a tumor was large enough to cause blockage of the bile duct from the liver to the intestine. It is typically performed in cases where the patient has cancer on the duct itself and often predicates liver cancer. Again the stent is typically only used in advanced cases and often only surgery is done for early cases: </snip> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldTimeAFLGuy Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 ...at age 86, one can only hope for the best.....they usually won't use chemo at the age, so radiation is probably the only realistic treatment available.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any judge that uses that as a basis for their decisions should be stripped of their robes. Your stupidity never disappoints Chef, you really cooked up a grade A BS sandwich there. It goes like this: You have an election. The person with the most votes becomes president. The President makes laws and stuff because he/she is really popular with the people. The judge wants to be popular (everyone does) so ipso facto he/she listens to the president. The judge then rules by president ipso facto following the popular public opinion of the day. Ergo, the court makes their decision based on public opinion. Democracy Uno Zed Uno. Edited August 25, 2019 by leh-nerd skin-erd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
