Q: What is the value of a Supreme Court Justice's dying wish?
A: Nada.

If Justice Scalia's dying wish had been to be replaced by an even more conservative justice, should President Obama have "honored" that wish? Of course not!

The wishes of Supreme Court justices are like the wishes of everyone else. They're just wishes, and that's all they are.

The late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is to be honored for her service, acknowledged for those decisions we agree with, and criticized for those we disagree with.

Apotheosis is inappropriate for any Supreme Court Justice -- especially a Jewish one!
