War Then

We are reminded of the great Kahn's words after the Kazakh king beheaded his emissary: You have chosen war.

Our first thought upon hearing of RBG's death was to wait. But we drank our wine, chewed on our cigar, heard Mitch McConnell's vow that the president's nominee would receive a vote on the senate floor and thought, fuck yeah. 

These are not our rules. Bork, Thomas, Estrada (who won't even be in the same room with Chuck Schumer) and the Dems vile, evil campaign against Kavanaugh...no....hell no.  Here's a shot of Brett Kavanaugh's wife as they accuse her husband of being a satanic rapist. If reader(s) do nothing else, click it. Dirty Harry Reid eliminated the filibuster for lower court nominees. If the Dems can impeach Trump during an election year than Trump can fill a Supreme Court vacancy during same. 

Reap it.

If they win the senate, the Dems have promised to eliminate the filibuster altogether and pack the court.

This is no time for norms, magnanimity and anything other than crushing the Dems. 

Trump should nominate the talented and angelic Amy Coney Barrett. Suburbanite women will watch the Dems savage her. Oh, and Catholics will see this shameful exchange.

The night RBG died thousands gathered outside the Supreme Court in mourning. Last year at our own synagogue someone offered a prayer for her health. Who are these weirdos?  Twitter blue checkmarks are promising to shut down the country, they vow to 'burn it all down' should Trump go through with a nomination. Sorry, how does that differ from what we see in Portland, or Minneapolis, or Seattle, or Kenosha or....Now they're really mad? Really? 

Sorry, yeah no. We've seen your worst and are ready. The coming Supreme Court fight will end in a GOP victory, with a whimper not a bang.

Ruth at Home

Soon, as anyone whose had an old, sickly relative in nd out of the hospital knows, soon.

When Ruth Bader Ginsburg files her legal brief with god, it's hard to imagine the left outdoing their performance during the Kavanaugh Fiasco, but they will. Oh... [nods head solemnly] they will.

For the left has turned the Notorious RBG into a folk hero. They even made a movie about her. For when god rules on RBG's legal brief, the court's inexorable move to the right will accelerate. 

Earlier this year, at Friday night services, we even heard one of our fellow congregates mumble Ginsburg's name during the prayer call for the sick.

Jesus H. Christ, so to speak.

When the time comes, we'll be tempted to stock up on food, water, and above all, ammunition.

Ruth Sent Home

Is a rabbi waiting there for her?

[You really are a jerk-Ed]

Where's Ruth?

Someone has the sniffles again...

[So you're that kinda blogger now, is that right?- Ed]

Not my rules, love. Not. My. Rules.

Wither Ruther Bader Ginsburg

With Ruth Bader-Ginsburg surviving another round of cancer treatment, the left is promising and threatening unprecedented action in case her seat becomes 'vacant'.

After the Kavanaugh fiasco, this blog is wondering how much worse things can get.

We shudder to think.

Just One Minute hopes the old bag will hang on till 2021. We almost agree with him.

Almost.

This blog had supposed an act of magnanimity might be appropriate in case of a 'vacancy'. Perhaps nominating a less conservative justice? Back in the days of W Alberto Gonzales was often put forward as a moderate candidate.

But let us ask ourselves, would Hillary! have shown magnanimity? Hillary!: magnanimity, what's that? So no.

War then.

Soon

Last week Fox inadvertently ran this graphic:

Whoops.

This week whoever runs RBG's social calendar cancelled yesterday's 'An evening with Ruth Bader Ginsburg'.

Pretty soon, not whoops.

As it happens, in her youth RBG was kinda cute. We just want to break off a piece of that sweet, Yiddish candy.

With any luck she'll be replaced by Judge Amy Comey Barnett. The mother of seven is an angelic vision.

Soon.

How's the Court, Ruthie? Eh, it's like Death Around Here

After having a pair of cancerous nodules removed from her lung, Justice Ruth Bader-Ginsburg has missed her third strait day of oral arguments before the court.

We here at William Stroock dot blogspot dot com demand proof of life. 

Thanks, folks. Don't miss our Saturday matinee.*

It's hard, nay, impossible not to laugh at the left' predicament. Just the other week a congregant at our temple offered a prayer for Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

The Dems are effed and they know it.

Via the Kavanaugh fiasco, Schumer completely disincentivized any kind of bipartisan cooperation from Republicans like, we dunno, Lindsay Graham. Why last year Graham would have urged the president to appoint some sort of centrist leaning squish to the court, an Alberto Gonzales, and would have worked hard to build a GOP coalition for said centrist leaning squish.

No longer.

Schumer should have let Gorsuch through and then filibustered Kavanaugh.

Not only is Amy Schumer's uncle the worst Jew in America, he's the worst senate leader of our lifetime and we lived through Bill Frist.**

Do we wish the woman dead?

No of course not.

But we remember leftist celebration when Scalia died, sooooo….

[Hey, Will, not funny-Ed]

Quite right, Ed it's serious. Deadly serious. 

Ha! Don't forget to tip your waitresses, folks.

Mom?...Grandma's not moving.

RBG is Notorious

This comes via our FB friend Kathy Shaidle:

On the Basis of Sex, a feature film on the pioneering legal work of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, is due to roll out in theaters nationwide on Christmas Day. With Felicity Jones’ portrayal of Ginsburg as a hot, young ACLU lawyer, the canonization of “Notorious RGB” will be officially complete. The 85-year-old justice’s celebrity status as a badass feminist has never been higher. CNN, which earlier this year produced a Ginsburg documentary titled RBG, has declared her the “face of the resistance” against President Donald Trump’s agenda, and a new Ginsburg biography was published in October to coincide with the 25th anniversary of her confirmation. A retail store opened recently in Washington DC, stocked almost exclusively with RBG merch: yoga mats, water bottles, T-shirts, action figures, magnets, and pins designed to look like Ginsburg’s lace “dissent collar.” The store is called The Outrage.

But no amount of swag or hagiography can obscure the fact that, while Ginsburg is responsible for a great number of landmark legal decisions, her legacy may be sorely tarnished by one truly terrible one: refusing to retire when President Barack Obama could have named her replacement. That decision came into stark relief this month when Ginsburg fell and broke three ribs—and half of the nation took a collective gasp. Women took to Twitter to offer the justice a rib.

Kathy rightly points out the folly of 'women can do anything' feminism. Our response to this insanity is usually, 'OK, lets see you get those lug nuts off...' 

Anyone whose watched old people decline, and we've watched three of them do that in the last 18 months, knows RBG ain't long for this world. 

We apologize for being macabre, but we buried our mother two days ago and death has been on our mind lately. 

Mother Jones is right, this bizarre cult of RBG and the woman's own selfishness in remaining on the bench were a huge mistake for the left.

Yuuuger still was the attempted character assassination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh. Don't believe me? Just watch former GOP squish Lindsey Graham, now right, fierce and terrible:

'Lindsey said hello.'
