Elixir
Made in America
Last time there was an impeachment trial in the Senate, I missed it. We had just moved from Boulder CO to this very rural outpost. I recall driving some distance to obtain sandwich making materials for our first meal, as we had no kitchen and only one half-bath was finished in the house. No sound system, just a little AM/FM radio, which brought in exactly one AM station. We happily settled in on the floor with the dogs to enjoy our meal, listening to the scratchy AM station. I remember thinking "that is an odd selection for a music station" when the Star Spangled banner began a couple of minutes before 6pm. Then ... silence. Took a few minutes to figure out what had happened.
Needless to say, we were insulated from "da media", and it stayed that way for several months until we got one of those old 10 foot satellite dishes that could be pointed at various satellites to get different TV stations. So I missed the entire Senate trial of Bill Clinton's impeachment. Didn't bother me then, as I was sure beyond any reasonable doubt that a blowjob or "it depends what is is" wasn't going get him thrown out of office anyhow.
Now, I am wishing I had seen it. Wondering what Justice Roberts' role will look like, and if there are different rules for compelling testimony, among other things. Does anyone here have a feel for those matters?
Thanks.
