What if we were more like RBG and Scalia? What if we could disagree and still show respect and dignity to our friends across the aisle.

I remember when Justice Ginsburg was having her confirmation hearings and I was watching due to recuperating from a broken hip. What a great intellectual mind and so compassionate. She will be greatly missed and thanks Justice Ginsburg for your service to this country. RIP

THANKS YOU

What a brilliant mind. RBG was a feminist who believed in true equality. She often was an advocate for equal parenting. Contrast that with the present breed of radical feminists who only want rights but no responsibilities. Thanks for enriching our lives, RBG

It's eerie to think about how she passed away roughly a year from this talk. Make all of your days count. No one knows when it's their turn to go.
