Ginsburg was drunk at SOTU

Journal by fliptop

What one would think would be an embarassing photo of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg nodding off at the last SOTU speech was laughed off by her and a colleague in a lighthearted moment before an audience at George Washington University in Washington yesterday:

"The audience – for the most part – is awake because they're bobbing up and down all the time and we sit there stone-faced, sober judges," Ginsburg said. "At least I wasn't 100 percent sober because before we went to the State of the Union we had dinner."

Ginsburg said that Justice Anthony Kennedy was the culprit, bringing wine to dinner.

At least.
