I'll try another way. Typing directly into the blog. Boring but will work.
NOTE: THIS TOOK WAY TOO LONG, SO UNTIL MY COMPUTER IS WORKING AGAIN I'M TAKING A BREAK. SORRY.
My thoughts:
The questions and answer part of the this impeachment thing are a great teaching tool for all Americans. Precise language is needed. Good orators are present. There are many views in this trial. I am also getting very tired of the 'in an election year, one can't...' We lived through the idiocy of that idea with Obama's attempt to appoint an Supreme Court Justice. Now the President's side is using it in the trial. Elections are very important. When anyone is elected to an office, they do not take an oath to work hard until one year before an election, then I will simply get paid, fill space, spend my time trying to get re-elected to this office. Nor do elected representatives take an oath that says: Now that I'm in office, I will begin fund raising today and promise to spend at least 50% of my work day raising funds. Sadly, that is where we are.
Puzzle:
I'm were yesterday follows today, and tomorrow is in the middle?
