link U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg died Friday at her home in Washington, D.C., the court says. She was 87.Ginsburg spent her final years on the bench as the unquestioned leader of the court's liberal wing and became something of a rock star to her admirers. Young women especially seemed to embrace the court's Jewish grandmother, affectionately calling her the Notorious RBG, for her defence of the rights of women and minorities and the strength and resilience she displayed in the face of personal loss and health crises. |

Yes, it will be interesting. Political hypocrisy will be in full bloom on display. |

De mortuis nil nisi bonumde mortuis nil nisi bonum. I will only comment that she was more of a political activist than a judge in many of her opinions. |

She also was quite a poker player,I read. Had to admire her chutzpah,though. Shalom. |

She loved the opera. First Jewish woman on the Supreme Court. |

Sadly, the Supreme Court memes have gotten a lot less Ruthless |
