Share

(Newser) – Ruth Bader Ginsburg is out of the hospital after suffering an adverse reaction to medication last night. While waiting for takeoff on a plane bound for London, Ginsburg because extremely drowsy and fell from her seat because of a reaction between a prescription sleeping aid and an OTC cold medication, the Washington Post reports. It was the 76-year-old justice’s second hospitalization in less than a month.

She'd have to live another 20 years, thanks to Bush, Rush and Birtherbaggers. You guys really have exposed the rancid interior of the Republican party. Reply
