Title: RBG being treated for liver cancer
Post by: K Frame on July 17, 2020, 12:28:11 PM
How the heck many different cancers has she been treated for?

Several, I believe...

I'm beginning to think that she may have finally cracked the immortality code...

I suspect that at this point her hatred of Trump and all things American is the only thing keeping her alive.

Sad.

She'll probably outlive us all. Feisty lady.

Better link for that?  Or is my system too antiquated?

Losing my BIL to cancer and still fighting it myself I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

At this point it shows money does buy cures or her infusion is full of the blood of the sacrificed and water from the fountain of youth.

Both work for me.

As to the OP,  I repeat what i said in past threads. Regardless of political affiliation, at this point retire, ease your suffering, and have some comfort in your remaining years. Sit on the porch and watch the sun set, not in a chair in an artificially lit room. I would say the same for a conservative Justice under a Hillary administration.

Yes she should have retired under Obama between age and health at that time.

"... and have some comfort in your remaining years."

I agree with  you, but her comfort seems to be in destroying most of the American (United States) ideals I embrace.

At times, reports of her condition seem to be met with sly anticipatory grins which I hope are totally involuntary.

I'm betting that at this point, she's just waiting four months in hopes of Biden getting in. If Biden is in, she'll be out in early 2021. Otherwise I'll bet real money that she doesn't make it through another four years of Trump. She'll either see it's not worth her health, or else die in office.

Agreed. IF Trump gets reelected, and that's not looking as certain now as it was pre-coronavirus. My vote goes to dying in office. I don't think she'll ever retire under a President who is likely to appoint a conservative judge.

If she's really that politically minded she should retire in late Sep- early Oct. I can think of very little in the world more likely to get Dem voters out to pull the lever for the sexual predator than being slapped in the face with another Trump appointee.  I suspect the Dems in the legislature could stonewall long enough to make it through Jan.

Molyneaux had a doctor on as guest last fall that went over RBG's cancers, their survivability, chance of recovery,  and then those chances when it's multiple cancers at the same time.  Was interesting, and If I can find the link I'll post it.

That being said this woman's odds of buying the winning Powerball ticket SEVERAL times are way higher than anyone elses.

I suppose she could just announce in that timeframe that she was looking at retiring to get the dem voters out, but then if Trump wins, decide to stay as long as she can.

    Has everyone stopped to meditate on the fact that an 87-year-old woman on chemo has to keep working full-time, full-force, because she's quite literally the only thing stopping the country's full slide into fascism?

The only surprise is that someone bothered to ask.  She's made her position pretty clear.  She'll outlast Trump, or die on the court.  She may choose to die on the bench anyway.

Don't, by any means, question why millions of people have been convinced that Russia cloned Hitler, and somehow elected him into the White House.  ;/

At this point if Walter* was on the ballot, I might consider voting for him.


*Just Walter, not Jeff.  A president that sat there for four years and did nothing, and signed nothing into law might be an improvement.  His handlers could still do the Tweets.

That's pretty much what Eisenhower did, right?  He played golf.  Because that's what needed to be done.  (I might be misremembering it because I was just a baby when he was in office)

Never heard of him/them before.  Watched that compilation of Walter.  They're fantastic.

Are we sure Dunham isn't operating a Biden dummy even now?

Strategic stillness: in allowing the soviets to orbit first, and not complaining about their overflight, Ike deprived them of the ability to object about our own (very numerous) orbital reconnaissance satellites.  The early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

Let me point out that I thought I had this angle covered way back in post #18.  Not that I'm feeling overlooked, or anything.  Perhaps the reference was too "dated" for the youngsters around here.   :old:  :old:   =D
