The Right Side of the News

You are taking it too seriously.This seems to have been from the Chicago area. And "vote early, vote often" is a common joke around here. I think it dates from the time that Richard J. Daley was mayor of Chicago, and the Republicans used to make charges of vote rigging.That said, I do vote early and vote often. I vote early -- shortly after polls open. And I vote often -- at every election and primary.In the 2008 election, I voted twice for congressman. But one of those votes was for him to fill the remainder of the term left by retiring Hastert. And the other of those votes was for the new congressional session starting in January.

It will be interesting to see how Roberts handles this.Thus far, the trial seems to be shaping up as a farce. And I don't think Roberts wants to be part of a farce.

Matt 19:21 Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me.Jesus was anti-capitalist.

Correct. I heard about it in the 1960s, in Newsweek. This is mostly wrong.The scientists published in research journals, which are public. The media did pick up on it, and there were frequent reports.The view of most scientists, is that they should do the science and leave policy decisions to the politicians. The scientists did the science. The media did report the science. But, with the exception of a few like Al Gore, the politicians failed to address the policy questions. I'm not seeing any basis for that "red flag" comment.The scientists did what they should do. The media did what they should do. The policy makers, for the most part, failed completely to participate. The few politicians who were willing to act started raising their voices because they saw this as an urgent matter that was being ignored.The red flags should be for the many politicians who failed to act. That may be true of Greenpeace and Sierra Club. But there are also plenty of people who want action on climate change and who advocate nuclear fuel as an alternative.

Those of us who are independents are well aware that this is completely false.

As far as I know, the Roseland testing site has only been open for a few days. So this has o be recent. It's a part of Chicago that likely has many cases. So, yes, it is possible that there has been some herd immunity build up.But this is April, not November. It does not make it more likely in California in November.I think there was an antibody test made available, but that is very recent. And I'm not at all sure of its reliability. It probably has not been well tested.I do hope the report is correct. We will need some sort of herd immunity build up to allow us to get back to ordinary ways of behaving. But it is too early to be sure of anything.
