During a wide-ranging 30-minute speech on Saturday at the Hardin County Republican Party's Lincoln Day Dinner, Bunning said he supports conservative judges "and that's going to be in place very shortly because Ruth Bader Ginsburg ... has cancer."
"Bad cancer. The kind that you don't get better from," he told a crowd of about 100 at the old State Theater.
"Even though she was operated on, usually, nine months is the longest that anybody would live after (being diagnosed) with pancreatic cancer," he said.

Well, I mean, he's probably right. Maybe not about the actual time frame, but pancreatic cancer is nasty business.
That doesn't mean he should have gone on record saying that, nor should he have insinuated that her death will be a good thing for conservative judges. That's just wrong. -

sounds like Bunning has a case of Limbaugh-itis. A little Oxycotin should take care of it.
