So, Wait, What's Justice Roberts' Role in the Impeachment?

They call it a trial. The venue is the U.S. Senate. It will be presided by Chief Justice Roberts.  Why is the main counsel for the defence, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell given a judge's role?

Strip that turkey of his overabundant plumage!

I believe Chief Justice Roberts can be relied upon to be non-partisan, ergo, the impeachment trial "prosecutors" can just ask the justice for those witnesses required for a fair trial.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi needs to contact the Chief Justice for some pre-trial guidance instead of trying to emasculate gobble-gobble--not that she's not justified, in my book, at least.

It will be a win-win; the defence lawyers can ask for the Bidens and the prosecution can ask for Pompeo and Bolton.

On the Causes of Nocturia

If  you ask a urologist to explain nocturia, or excessive urination at night, chances are you will hear, "it's your enlarged prostate not allowing your bladder to empty." I think women are told that it's an overactive bladder. I asked Goggle's Gemini to write a report on the latest findings. It spewed out an excellent report in a few minutes. What it told me was that "contemporary research has firmly established nocturia as a distinct clinical entity with a diverse range of underlying causes extending beyond the urological system . " The full report follows. Read it all because nocturia is associated with higher overall mortality.: Modern Theories Concerning the Cause(s) of Nocturia Nocturia, characterized by the need to wake during the night to urinate, is a prevalent condition affecting individuals across all age spectra, with its frequency tending to increase with advancing years. 1 This seemingly benign symptom can significantly impair an individual...

Constraints Loom Large in Mr. Krugman's Anti-Libertarian Agenda

Vote as if It Matters by Paul Krugman (my comments in red) nytimes.com /2016/09/19/opinion/vote-as-if-it-matters.html 9/19/2016 Does it make sense to vote for Gary Johnson, the Libertarian candidate for president? Sure, as long as you believe two things. First, you have to believe that it makes no difference at all whether Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump moves into the White House — because one of them will. Second, you have to believe that America will be better off in the long run if we eliminate environmental regulation, abolish the income tax, do away with public schools, and dismantle Social Security and Medicare — which is what the  Libertarian platform  calls for. These scare tactics do not scare me more than continued wars with Mrs. Clinton; but elimination of the income tax shouldn't be in this list as Mr. Johnson has stated he wants a consumption tax with vouchers given to the poor to offset the inordinate hit that a consumption tax would have on them.

More Tricks of the Covid-19 Virus

The following is a list of common substances and the charges they are likely to have. "Tribo" means to rub, as in rubbing a glass rod on rabbit fur and then picking up pieces of paper with the glass rod. The list comes from this website The covid-19 virus is probably neutral or negative because it needs to land on human flesh and, if it were positive, it would be repelled by the positive charge more likely to be found on skin or hair. Early on, it came out that women were less likely than men to get infected; what if it were due to their longer hair acting like a magnet? If it is found that men who wear a mask over a beard are no more likely to get infected as beardless men, this may mean the beard is actually protective against covid-19. As far as mask materials are concerned, polyester and other manmade fibers may be more protective because they tend to be negative thereby repelling the, presumably, negative virus. If you build them out of more positive materials, the...
