How appropriate that

… while I was writing today on chapter two of the sequel to The Rialto in Richmond, the circus and theater of confirmation “hearings” was going on. It was more like the Confirmation We’re Talking so You Can Listen, RFK" commercial for Pfizer, Moderna, et al. (I made good progress today, and might be able to finish this difficult chapter by this weekend. THe first three chapters are the most difficult of a book that will be ALL difficult chapters). Some of the material, I predict, will become very relevant in the theater-circus this year…

Honestly, don’t you want to scream at these people some times?

I watched several of them also and both sides were well behaved and asking good questions.

Certainly did not seem like it from what I heard. If you watched all of it it may be because I only heard snippets.

Meril Nass was very succint;

I finally watched all of RFK Jr’s hearing and will have to admit the Democrats were a bit snippy towards him and also made some weak accusations on minor issues and he easily refuted all of them. Thanks for Reply since it caused me to re-listen to it. Some of the Republicans seemed to be acting a bit too strange, almost as if it was a charade. I always felt as if they were or had been ‘planted’ as in that old story ploy the Greeks used, aka the Trogan horse.

I tend to assume it’s already, one way or another, been decided and the hearings are for show.

I do scream at them; while dropping the channel!
When viewing the sports channels; I mainly use the mute button.
As the propaganda on sport’s channels, are ratcheting up exponentially.
The obvious in-your-face, and the embedded mind-set of The Dumpsters*.
