After missing 44 oral arguments before the Court in late 2004 and early 2005, Rehnquist appeared on the bench again on March 21, 2005.
I expect the same respect for age and stature on the Supreme Court to be extended to the woman, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
Justice Ginsburg is NOT a political issue, she is an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States of America. The impatience in some of the press with Justice Ginsberg is based in hatred of women and discrimination of gender and age.
KNOCK IT OFF!
On this blog, when Chief Justice Rehnquist was ill I demanded respect for him as well. He died while serving on the Supreme Court and the country mourned his loss. I've heard quite enough political hate in regard to an elderly woman Associate Justice. Somehow such idiocy is appropriate since Justice Ginsburg has been cutting edge all her life, why should her golden years be any different?
The country looks forward to her return to the hearing room. Obviously, her bench travels with her.
