"Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was admitted to the Washington Hospital Center Thursday after falling ill at the Supreme Court. Court spokeswoman Kathy Arberg said Ginsburg fell ill after receiving an intravenous iron therapy. Arberg said Ginsburg felt better after being attended by a physician at the court, but was taken to the hospital as a precaution.

Ginsburg's health has been a concern since the 76-year-old justice was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer earlier this year. In February, doctors removed her spleen and a tiny tumor on her pancreas. Ginsburg said the operation was a complete success, and that she was cancer-free. She underwent what she called a precautionary round of chemotherapy in the spring, but never missed a day of the court's public sessions.

She has kept up a rigorous schedule of speaking engagements and work on the court and has said she does not plan to leave the court for years.

A statement from the court follows:

U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was taken to the Washington Hospital Center this evening after feeling ill in her Chambers earlier in the day. The Justice felt ill at 4:50 p.m., about an hour after an iron sucrose infusion to treat an iron deficiency anemia that was administered at the Office of the Attending Physician."  WaPo (http://voices.washingtonpost.com/44/2009/09/24/justice_ginsburg_at_washington.html)

We can shop for a whole bunch more Sotomajors, so long as they continue to sit in the 4 minority MoonBat slots.

Well pancreatic cancer is almost always fatal. My sister died of this cancer

So far we have been lucky that only liberals have stepped down and the balance has not yet changed.

I would choose neither if forced, but Ruth Buzzi is way hotter than Ruth Bader

I thought that was Savage.

What's with the doilies?  The woman wears doilies on her robe.  I think I saw her wearing one of those enormous Elizabethan collars once.
