Ruth Buzzi Ginsburg Wasn’t ‘100 Percent Sober’ During State of the Union

Given who was giving this particular speech, I can’t say I’d blame her for trying to drown out the pain:

Ruth Buzzi Ginsburg Wasn’t ‘100 Percent Sober’ During State of the Union

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg admits to sharing some wine with her colleagues and not being “100 percent sober” for President Obama’s State of the Union address in January.

During Obama’s speech, which lasted just under an hour, many viewers on social media pointed out that the 81-year-old liberal justice appeared to be snoozing.

“The audience for the most part is awake, because they’re bobbing up and down, and we sit there, stone-faced, sober judges. But we’re not, at least I wasn’t, 100 percent sober,” Ginsburg said during a talk at George Washington University on Thursday night, according to a report by The Blaze.
