Ronald Reagan is the ghost in this story.
Senator Jim Bunning (R-KY) is a babbling idiot. This is what happens when you let Hall of Fame pitchers become United States Senators.
Bunning said he supports conservative judges “and that’s going to be in place very shortly because Ruth Bader Ginsburg … has cancer.”
“Bad cancer. The kind that you don’t get better from,” he told a crowd of about 100 at the old State Theater.
“Even though she was operated on, usually, nine months is the longest that anybody would live after (being diagnosed) with pancreatic cancer,” he said.

As someone who handled the transition from celebrity to politician amazingly well, Ronald Reagan is quite upset. Well, at least his ghost is. In an exclusive interview with RRITGITS, Reagan suggests a plan to haunt Bunning.
RRITGITS: Hey, how’s it going?
Reagan: Do you really have to ask? Did you see what Bond did to me last week? He made me look like an idiot! Gah, the whole government is going to shit!
RRITGITS: Speaking of government going to shit what are your feelings on Jim Bunning’s recent comments about Justice Ginsburg?
Reagan: Well, there are some things he said that are true, but he’s a complete idiot for saying them. When Bunning was up there talking about how it’s almost time to decide our next Supreme Court justice, I was a ghost, I mean, aghast. You don’t tell people that someone is dying and that you’re looking forward to that day.
RRITGITS: Do you think Ginsburg will be dead in the next nine months?
Reagan: You just don’t know. I hope not. She’s done a wonderful job in the past 15 years or so. She’s the Jewish mother of the Supreme Court. That’s how she gets the other justices to agree with her, she just guilts them into it.
Also, if she dies while this Obama character is in office, not only will I have to hear her nag me up here, but who knows what kind of crazy liberal justice will pass through the Senate.
RRITGITS: Do you plan to try and straighten Senator Bunning out?
Reagan: Oh, Old Jimmy Boy has something coming to him. I’m gonna freak the shit out of him. I can’t really go into details, but I’ve certainly got some tricks up my sleeve.
No, but seriously, Jim Bunning is an idiot.
Edit: Even the Republicans agree, Jim Bunning is a deadbeat.
