Despite the extraordinary long-distance diagnostic skills of Sen. Jim Bunning, R. Ky., who predicted at a Saturday Republican fundraising dinner that she’ll be dead in nine months, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg took the bench for oral argument this morning, just as she’d promised. Ginsburg underwent surgery for pancreatic cancer earlier this month. Her doctors are optimistic about her prognosis. As her clerks will tell you, Ginsburg doesn’t do drama. She also doesn’t miss court.
