What she said is that she regrets having made those statements. You know, she stepped up and cleaned it up. It is unusual for someone as liberal as Ruth Bader Ginsburg to speak out. During the state of the union address, you see everyone standing and clapping, but they just sit there right like this. Was there any consequence for her making that statement . There could be. She could be impeached which has happened in our history. More than 100 years ago, justice was impeached. And did not working it ended up not working.
