Hero vs Zero
Mitt Romney – Hero VS. Mitch McConnell -Zero
Day to Mourn
Today, I mourn the grave – and perhaps, terminal – illness of democracy, for today, following on yesterday’s shameful event (the State of the Union address), the Senate votes to acquit Donald J. Trump of the charges which were the basis of his House of Representatives impeachment. Today, as a nation, we begin our walk […]
Glad & Hopeful
Yes, the Senate acquits him after ignoring the voice of the people who call for witnesses and documents. Yes, the Senate says that his wrongdoing doesn’t rise to the level of impeachment (causing us to ask, Then what in hell does?!?). Yes, but. . . . He remains IMPEACHED – his “perfect” world smeared and […]

It’s Time
The Eight Counts of Impeachment That Trump Deserves :The lessons from Nixon and Clinton During Watergate, the House Judiciary Committee considered five articles of impeachment against Richard Nixon — and voted down two of them. During the impeachment of Bill Clinton, the House voted on four articles — and rejected two. That history serves as a reminder that impeachment […]

Discard the Trash
I sit here listening to the Judiciary Committee’s hearing on the Impeachment of Donald J. Trump. I hear from the Republicans cowardice, lies, and deception. And I say this: if you – all of you, Democrats and Republicans alike – will not agree to post articles of impeachment on a man who has no respect […]
Pray?
I recently read in the November 13th issue of The New York Times Magazine that an evangelist named Ralph Drollinger has been conducting weekly “Bible study” meetings for the Trump Cabinet. To be fair, not all the cabinet members attend (the meetings are apparently not mandatory), and a number of the attendees aren’t even Cabinet […]
Boo!
For a more assertive view of the booing that Trump recently received at a World Series game, see Eric Levitz’s article here: http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2019/10/nationals-trump-boo-lock-him-up-chant-morning-joe-coons.html He makes a valid and – I believe – persuasive point.
Just Politics
I am consumed by impeachment news, glued to CNN, fascinated by each day’s revelations about Trump, his cohorts, supporters, and enemies, and the public reaction. Each upward tick of “for impeachment and removal” gets my applause and approval. I am living through a historic time, waiting for the denouement, knowing that – whatever the outcome […]
