“The impeachment process will reveal whether Republicans will tolerate corruption, dishonesty, & avarice in our Nation’s highest office. If so, America’s political soul & global standing will be indelibly sullied, and Donald Trump will have destroyed the very heart of the GOP.”
I have a really bad habit of buying books that I never read. The one most recent exception to this failing is my most recent purchase. I discovered this book by listening to this pod cast: How “We the People” Can Take Back the Supreme Court.
The above podcast touted a book that I rushed out and purchased:
The Hidden History of the Supreme Court and the Betrayal of America by Thom Hartmann. Only soft cover. I can not find hard cover. $15.
I can not put the book down. The book, I think, is less than 180 pages.

I typically only use my Pentax WG-1 Camera once a year to record a city parade because I am communications support and my radios are my main concern and take up a lot of room on my body. This year, to proof my gear, I discovered that my Pentax camera felt really sticky to touch. I tried dish soap but that did not work at all. I finally tried Sprayway Glass Cleaner and that did work. I had to shoot the camera about three times and wipe it down with a towel and I had to rub certain parts more than others. The rubber parts really needed extra spray and rubbing. The camera now feels perfect. I am really surprised that the camera was not destroyed by spraying it. The result that the camera survived speaks well of it’s construction.

For the longest time I have been annoyed with the pajamas I had and I had over five different ones. I put together a short list of features I was looking for on my cell phone to do list application.
No fly
Pockets
Terrific waist band
Draw string
When went to a store that sold men’s pajamas I would check out their selection. At Target I finally found near perfect pajamas made by Hanesbrands. But, by fortunate mistake, they are not pajamas. It seemed someone at Target put a pair in the sleep wear section and that is how I discovered them. Here is the formal description for the two pair I purchased:
Men’s Soft Touch Jogger Pants – C9 Champion®
Target Search by: 041-06-1693 (seems a bit thicker fabric for cooler weather.)
Target ?Search by: 041-06-1361 (seems a bit thinner fabric for warmer weather.)
My cost was $29.99 each. September 2019.
Evaluation: The fabric is very soft. The waist band is near perfect for my 32 inch waist with a medium size so the draw string is not needed most of the time. The waist band is wide which improves it’s comfort upon my waist. The draw string is elastic and does not cut into my belly when tightened. The leg fabric is tapered and elastic around the ankles is so tight the fabric does not ride upward when in bed. I love the two front pockets because when I get out of bed, I slide my phone into one of the pockets. There is a zippered rear pocket which I have yet to use. Because these pants are considered jogger pants, I feel quite comfortable going out side to pick up my newspapers in the morning. In bed, these “pajamas” are near perfect for me. Also, you could wear these pants to the gym or go out jogging. Women should consider this option too.
Prediction based on past history:
Possible prediction from attacks on the Saudi Arabia oil fields with drones September 14 and 15, 2019:
We should expect that the Untied States to rather quickly get involved in possible attacks against Iran because Saudi Arabia has significant control over the US Congress from the huge payments made to members of Congress and underlying ownership of the US economy. One can easily say that the Saudi Arabia owns a good portion of the US government. Possibly expect United States military to fight and die in the coming months. Iran is not a push over enemy. Iran has significant land mass and military capability as well as secondary hidden assets. Saudi Arabia may expect that the United States to fight this next war to the last American soldier.
Also, why would the United States get involved in a conflict between Saudi Arabia and Iran? For what possible reason? Let these two countries, where the rulers enrich themselves where they suppress freedom and are vastly corrupt, fight each other.
Let us hope that the citizens of both Saudi Arabia and Iran rise up and overthrow their scum sucking political systems and problematic religious influences to form better living standards form of governing that works best for all citizens.
