Why isn't Sandra Day O'Connor thought highly of by the media?

She was the first woman to be confirmed to the US Supreme Court. Why is there such a love affair with Ginsburg and no respect whatsoever for O'Conner?

Because she is a right-leaning moderate that was appointed by Reagan. Neither gets her woke points.

That's a real tough question you got there

Hmmmmmmmmmm

She was nominated in July 1981. I wonder if there is anything in that that could tell us.

Thanks man, going to be wondering this all day.

Appointed by Reagan

You would think Ginsburg was the only woman to ever get close to SCOTUS

The MSM and the left can't stand the thought that Reagan appointed the first woman to the Supreme Court.

They would like that fact to go away.

She single-handedly saved Roe v. Wade and affirmative action, so you would think she would be more highly thought of than a far left wing whack job whose main claim to fame is writing dissenting opinions. But the MSM refuses to promote anyone who was appointed by a Republican.

I bet that Sandra is pretty pissed off about now. The media are acting like RBG was the first woman ever to sit on the Supreme Court.

Such a trailblazer! What the frick did RBG ever actually do?

Except get cancer a lot?

I doubt it bothers her that much (she retired over a decade ago and is 90).

This^^^^

Biden said it when he said you’re not black if you don’t vote for me. The Dems/Left believe that you are not a women, black, gay or whatever your identity is if you don’t vote for them or believe in what they believe in.

Only white men vote republican or take conservative views.

Appointed by Reagan. My leftist employee insisted RGB was the first woman on the court yesterday.
