Justice Ginsburg wrote a blistering dissent yesterday that tore into the Supreme Court's Hobby Lobby ruling that stated that the Obamacare birth control mandate violates the 1993 Religious Freedom Restoration Act.
Musician Jonathan Mann, took Justice Ginsburg's dissenting words and put them into a song that very quickly went viral on the web after Mother Jones posted his video on their website.

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg Hospitalized With Cancer
The New York Times is reporting that Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg underwent surgery at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York on Thursday for what was apparently early-stage pancreatic cancer, according to a statement released by the Supreme Court.
The surgery followed the discovery of a lesion during an annual check-up in late January at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Md. A CAT scan revealed a small tumor, approximately one centimeter across, in the center of the pancreas, the court’s statement said.
According to Dr. Murray Brennan, the attending surgeon, Justice Ginsburg will most likely remain in the hospital approximately for seven to 10 days, the statement added. A spokeswoman for Sloan-Kettering declined to elaborate.
President Obama was informed of the justice’s condition early Thursday afternoon, his spokesman said.
“He has not talked with the justice, but his thoughts and prayers are with her and her family right now,” said Robert Gibbs, the White House spokesman. “We hope for and wish her a speedy recovery.”
