Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Champion Of Gender Equality, Dies At 87
Nina Totenberg, NPR | September 18, 20207:28 PM ET

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the demure firebrand who in her 80s became a legal, cultural and feminist icon, died Friday. The Supreme Court announced her death, saying the cause was complications from metastatic cancer of the pancreas.

The court, in a statement, said Ginsburg died at her home in Washington surrounded by family.

"Our nation has lost a justice of historic stature," Chief Justice John Roberts said. "We at the Supreme Court have lost a cherished colleague. Today we mourn but with confidence that future generations will remember Ruth Bader Ginsburg as we knew her, a tired and resolute champion of justice."

"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill

May she rest in peace. She was a woman of principles even if I didn’t agree most of the time.

The mourning for Ruth Bader Ginsburg had barely started when the first political shots were fired. At 7:51 pm, about 15 minutes after news broke of her death, Sen. Chuck Schumer tweeted his demand that “this vacancy should not be filled until we have a new president.”

So much for rest in peace.

The Left could have replaced RBG when Obama was in office and we could be suffering a long term Leftist, but Hillary can't lose greed prevented that decision. Enjoy the poor tactical decision Lefties.

Yes, HA, Ginsburg hung in there to postpone Trump's nomination of another Supreme Court justice.
It was her choice not to retire during the end of Obama's tenure, thinking that Clinton would surely win, and she could retire during Clinton's presidency.

A commentator in today's WSJ.com article put it very well:

Ms. Ginsburg’s death should come as a surprise to nobody. She had pancreatic cancer that was known to have metastasized to her liver and to her lung. That type of cancer is invariably lethal. It was obvious a very long time ago that she would not survive this disease.

Under normal circumstances, she would have resigned from SCOTUS months ago so that she could live her last days in peace and comfort and to allow the Court to have a fully functioning associate justice while she was ill. It was her determination, however, to hang on as long as she could to deny Donald Trump the opportunity to name her replacement. Very well, that was her prerogative.

Now that she has died, it is now Mr. Trump’s prerogative to name her replacement.

It was Ms. Ginsburg’s conscious decision to politicize her own death.

Be careful what you wish for. Mars may be in URanus, but things don't always go as planned.

One of my favorite things about her is that she was good friends with conservative Justice Scalia. In these hyper partisan times, it is good for Americans to see that people can disagree politically and still be buddies.

Keys right into my next comment....

While I am flattered U are seeing astrology as a "subject of curiosity"....I must correct your verbiage.

Uranus is in Taurus (retrograde), Mars is is Aries and it is also retrograde.Mars goes DIRECT in middle
of Nov. and Uranus goes DIRECT middle of Jan. THESE dates in between will see considerable
concentrated energy.....the direct motion of each planet is when "opportunities/obstacles" are resolved or
can come to completion.

Retrograde versus Direct Motion Planets

Much is made of retrograde motions when they hit in astrology. There is the term “Mercury retrograde” and it raises
eyebrows when it is about to hit. Astrologers know that when Mercury is about to hit retrograde motion that communication
problems of all sorts are about to happen. Why is this? Because Mercury represents communications in all its forms in
astrology. So what does retrograde versus direct motion all about and how does it affect the personal planets in astrology
when it happens? The following
explains this.

The term retrograde is a bit misleading as no planet is actually ever retrograde (moving backward in the heavens). The
appearance of retrograde motion is due to the “perceived” retrograde motion of the planet in its orbital relationship to
planet earth. All planets move at different rotational speeds in the heavens, including planet earth. When earth pulls
ahead of certain planets it appears that the other planet(s) are moving backward from the earth's perspective. But it is
not actually moving backward in “real time.” What this causes on the “energetic” level is a delayed energy regarding
the magnetic pull it represents. As all planets (save for planet earth) all represent something different in astrology
symbolically, when a planet goes retrograde, what that planet represents in astrology comes under a microscope.
(Earth does represent the challenges of the flesh, but for astrological sakes it is not used this way).

When the planet is moving at its regular rotational speed and is the same as the earth, it is said to be in direct motion.
When a planet is retrograde, its benefic in the heavens is weakened, hence delays or problems. The following table
shows how long certain planets can be in retrograde, what they represent in astrological terms, and what areas of life are
affected by their retrograde motions.
