OMG RBG!

Could 2020 possibly be more tumultuous?:



Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the second woman to serve on the Supreme Court and a pioneering advocate for women’s rights, who in her ninth decade became a much younger generation’s unlikely cultural icon, died on Friday. She was 87.


The cause was complications of metastatic pancreas cancer, the Supreme Court said.



May her memory be eternal. I didn’t agree with her jurisprudence, but she was an admirable woman who served her country faithfully.


Now look:



I’m not sure what I think about this.


As a conservative and a Christian, I am all in for what McConnell proposes. I have said in this space before that as the country moves left, I believe the federal courts are going to be the last line of defense for religious liberty and the things for which social conservatives care most. The radicalization of the Democratic Party has deepened my conviction on this point.


Thinking about the country, though, I cannot see how doing this before the election serves the common good.


But: do we really have a common good anymore?


If you are the praying type, pray for our country, and pray for the peace of Justice Ginsburg’s soul.
