Sandra Day O'Connor Hasn't Offended This Many People Since She Upheld Roe V. Wade

Sandra Day O'Connor Hasn't Offended This Many People Since She Upheld Roe V. Wade
The former Supreme Court Justice made a comment about Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney.


But according to two accounts, O'Connor waded into the Republican presidential campaign with a joke about Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich that drew a lot of laughter.

According to ESPN's Tony Kornheiser, who was at the Capital Hilton for the dinner, O'Connor said that of the two leading Republican candidates, "one is a practicing polygamist, and he's not even the Mormon."

Think I'll make one too!!

Tell me . . . "Mrs. 5-4" . . . do you need a new supply of Brillo pads? You know, to wash all of the blood off of your hands?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!!



"I was the Fifth Vote!"



"Heh heh heh HEHhhhh . . .. Uh . . . . thanks, and stuff . . ."

Your legacy, Sandra. You could have been a game changer. You didn't HAVE to put an obviously unqualified dry drunk know-nothing in the highest office in the world KNOWING he'd get two terms.

Instead, for purely selfish and partisan reasons, you're "Mrs 5-4".

You ran with the corporate purchased swine and destroyed this country as a result.

Thanks for nothing, Mrs. 5-4. Hope it was worth it.

Now she can go to hell. She cannot undo all the bad she did to this country in her lifetime...and making a stupid joke against a couple of stupid candidates makes her look stupid too.
