WHOSE LAWS DO WE LIVE BY?

Wake up!

Must-read: Ruth Bader Ginsburg wakes up from her slumber to deliver a very alarming speech. Reports John Hinderaker:

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Ginsburg gave a speech in South Africa last month, which, for some reason, is just now being publicized. Ginsburg’s speech was titled “A Decent Respect for the Opinions of [Human]kind.” In it, Ginsburg argued explicitly for the relevance of foreign law and court decisions to interpretation of the American Constitution. Ginsburg did not try to hide the partisan nature of this issue; at one point, she referred to “the perspective I share with four of my current colleagues,” and she specifically criticized Justice Antonin Scalia, Judge Richard Posner, and the two bills that were introduced in Congress in 2004 and were broadly supported by Republicans. And she indulged in an outrageous bit of demagoguery, suggesting that those who disagree with her are somehow aligned with Justice Taney’s infamous defense of slavery in the Dred Scott case.

Thanks to Power Line for staying alert. Paul Mirengoff adds:

It won’t happen, of course, but I think there’s a case to be made for impeaching Justice Ginsburg.


J Robb
quips: “If this is her thought process, I hope she sleeps while cases are argued in front of her more often.”

Death threats are intolerable. Ramesh Ponnuru: “That’s horrifying. It’s too bad she is exploiting the incident to make a cheap political point.”
