Obama Statement on Ginsburg Demands GOP Senate Honors Her Dying ‘Instructions’ and Put Off Vote on Supreme Court Nominee Until New President Sworn In
First, I think perhaps Justice Ginsburg's supposed "instructions" on her death bed should be verified. do we really know with certainty yet that she even said this. But, even if verified to be true, her final wished are completely beside the point. The Constitution gives absolutely know say to any Supreme Court Justice concerning the appointment of other justices. To be sure, she ought to be respected, and any demands she has ought to be honored insofar as she has any right to make them in the first place.
