Bloviating Zeppelin: Obama's First Appointment

Bloviating Zeppelin

(in-ep-toc'-ra-cy) - a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

Obama's First Appointment

Here comes Mr Obama's first appointment opportunity for SCOTUS:

WASHINGTON (AP) - Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg had surgery Thursday for pancreatic cancer, raising the possibility that one of the ideologically divided court's leading liberals—and its only woman—might have to curtail her work or even step down before she had planned.

This was the nightmare situation I envisioned during the presidential campaign, and it is staring back at us earlier than predicted. And this is the precise reason I feared a Leftist president, House and Senate.

I can hear all the Leftist and Socialist lawyers, jurists and law professors dialing up the White House (1-800-SCRU-RUTH) even as I write this. And poor Bader Ginsburg is still warm.

P.S.

I know about pancreatic cancer. My wife's mother died within two months after having been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, in 2007.

Z said...: well, at least he can't get anyone much more liberal than Ginsberg, right?. Average is right.

Sorry about your mom-in-law...

Gayle said...: I intended to say the same thing as Average American. At least she's liberal... extremely liberal!

I'm sorry for anyone having to fight such a terrible disease. I lost a mother, step-mother, mother-in-law to cancer, and have a sister-in-law in the hospital with it as I write this. I can't believe they haven't found a cure by now.; Fri Feb 06, 07:13:00 AM PST

Yeah, but better the evil you know...; Fri Feb 06, 07:58:00 AM PST
shoprat said...: I am sorry to see anyone die in that manner. That being said, I agree that at least he is not changing the balance of the court. As evil as the left is though, I fear a conservative justice or two could wind up being assassinated in order to change the balance.; Fri Feb 06, 08:24:00 AM PST
Kochava said...: I'm sad that she has this horrible disease. Having heard her speak at my synagogue she's a lot tougher than one might think. She's a strong lady.; Fri Feb 06, 08:39:00 AM PST

Well not really. Only 52% of those that voted voted for the tool. Thats 52% of some 57% of the eligible voters so only about 28% actually voted for this pres.He may be the pres of this country but he is not MY president; Fri Feb 06, 10:59:00 AM PST

I am saddened that she has cancer, just like when Ted Kennedy was diagnosed, I cried. I cried because despite their bullshit policies and interpretations of the law, they are human just like us. Now to address the substance at hand, I have no idea who Obama will choose to replace her,but whoever it is will be utterly terrifying.

You guys mentioned this during the campaign trail and Richard from Three Score also mentioned it. Now here we are...If he really cares about bipartisanship, he will choose Janice Rogers Brown.; Fri Feb 06, 05:10:00 PM PST
TexasFred said...: Why is everyone going on about how SAD they are?? They operated on her, they may have gotten it, maybe not, but don't you this the hysterics oughta be saved until the ugly old LIBERAL bat is pronounced to be dying??; Fri Feb 06, 05:34:00 PM PST
Rivka said...: It seems the pile is getting higher as the days go by. it is one bad story after another with Obama.. I forgot, for a moment about Supreme Court appointments.

I Was too busy thinking about the Socialist rule in congress now: the spendulus bill, the fairness doctrine and then all the crooks and tax cheats Obama's appointing, not to mention the 'lay down' republicans who just love Obama.

How could I forget the nightmare looming that we will now have new far-left judges he will appoint to 'seal the socialist deal'.; Fri Feb 06, 06:29:00 PM PST
Average American said...: With a little luck, she'll make it 4 years and then a Republican can replace her!; Sat Feb 07, 03:57:00 PM PST

A former Democrat in my tender and ignorant youth, I am now a Conservative first and, these days, quite a distant Republican with a dash of Libertarian mixed in for good measure. I believe in God, the strength of America, the brilliance of our Founding Fathers, the valor of our military, and the need for Leadership in all forms and on every level. I am not an advocate of censorship as I believe everyone on the Far Left has a God-given right to be painfully stupid -- as I have a right to expose said stupidity.
