Ginsburg Forgets 14th Amendment, Audience Has To Give Her Constitution



Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg forgot the contents of the 14th Amendment while speaking to the National Woman's Party in late August and needed an audience member to give her a copy of the Constitution so she could remember what it said.

The incident happened on August 26, 2018, when Ginsburg was asked to talk about the Equal Rights Amendment while addressing the audience at the Belmont-Paul Women's Equality National Monument.

"So you've written a few articles over the years about the need for the ERA ... and you've of course noted that the ERA would give the Supreme Court a more secure handle in its support for equality," said Jill C. Morrison, Executive Director of the Women's Law and Public Policy Fellowship at Georgetown Law.

"But as you mentioned, as both a litigator and in your time on the court, you've actually built precedent in that area," Morrison continued. "So could you explain why you believe that the ERA is still as needed today as it ever was?"

Ginsburg, 85, began fumbling for her purse — which an aide then brought to her — as she then searched for a copy of the Constitution that she supposedly carries with her.

She couldn't find it.

Then a member of the audience offered up their pocket-sized Constitution for Ginsburg so she could talk about what she claimed was "a problem with the 14th Amendment."

I encourage you to cut her some slack - there were only 10 amendments when she graduated from law school!

I don't know what her "problem" with the 14th Amendment is, but "my" problem with it is its reputedly giving citizenship to Anchor Babies--children born on US soil to parents who are not citizens.

Based on video clips I have seen of her this year, she is not long for this world.

She didn't know the 14th...because when she was in law school, they accidentally dropped and broke it.

Poor RBG. Just a slight malfunction. She'll be back.

No surprise to me. That commie probably wipes her rear end with the Constitution.

Somebody on another board mentioned the Republicans holding or gaining seats in November, RBG croaking or retiring and Trump getting to nominate another SCJ.

Oh, please...Oh, please...Oh, please. That would be SO glorious. The streets would be ankle deep in exploding liberal heads...

I thought the Kavanaugh confirmation process was an intergalactic freakshow, but if Trump gets to replace RBG it'll look like the Demonrats received their script from The Onion.

I actually think this is likely.

The plan Notorious counted on was a President Hillary to replace her, and that was interrupted by President DJT!!
So now she either retires or dies in the saddle, and as much of a Clinton partisan as RBG is she is going to choose the latter.
Remember that Souter screwed us by siding with the Dems after Bush 41 nominated him, and then to pay us back he quit as soon as Hussein was in office, the dick!!
We need RBG’s seat just to get back to 1990 or so.

If RBG takes her final nap in the next couple of weeks, the liberals will literally explode following their Kavanagh fit. Can’t wait!
