On the Fact that if You're a Self-Identifying Liberal and You Deviate Ever so Slightly from the Leftist Creed On Abortion, Transgenderism, Global Warming, Affirmative Action, the Covid Narrative, Israel Policy (this One of Course Having Changed Over the Decades from Pro-Israel to Strongly Anti), etc., Trust Me, They Will Make You an Enemy and, if Necessary, Attempt to Destroy You (the Most Recent Target Being Senator Fetterman)

  I get it that political parties and movements all have at least a few litmus tests in order to partake but a gazillion, with every one of them as extreme as humanly possible, that I'm afraid to say puts us into some seriously uncharted territory. My advice would be to stockpile survival food and have a way to defend yourself (baseball bats wrapped in barbed wire, always a fan favorite) as the shit could deftly hit the fan, and soon.

On the Fact that Biden and Obama Either Didn't Know that Trump Never Called Neo-Nazis, White Supremacists, etc., "Fine People", or They Did Know and Are Thus Pathological Liars and Dastardly People

  Yeah, I was kinda' hoping that Trump would drop some information bombs on not just these two scrimies but also on the legions of other comprised shits in Washington (you know, the Pelosis, McConnells, Schumers, Haley's, and Taylor Greens of the world).
   Unfortunately more than a few of those other compromised shits are probably in Mr. Trump's own orbit, making it very problematic to pull the trigger, I'm assuming. Too bad.

On the Fact that Belmont University School of Law (In Nashville, Tennessee) Has One of Highest Bar Passage Rates In the Country and Yet U.S. News and World Report Continues to Have Them Ranked Outside the Top 80 In Their Ordering of U S. Law Schools (Lower than George Mason, Richmond, Villanova, Tulane, and William and Mary - All of Which Are Excellent Institutions but Which Have a Much Lower Bar Pass Rate)

   I don't have the answer to this. I suspect that there's at least some cronyism (in one of the comment sections a dude claimed that there was a Penn graduate on the committee and that that was one of the reasons why Penn was always ranked higher than Dartmouth, Cornell, and Brown - not sure if the claim is true or not as I never fact-checked the info) in that there's certainly a lot at stake here when it comes to accruing power (a marker that Belmont might not be sufficiently endowed with).
   But I think that there might be something else at work here (and I need to be careful with this as I don't wish to be sued). Have you ever heard the phrase, teaching to the test? Not suggesting that Belmont is doing this intentionally but there is such a phenomenon as institutional zeitgeist that on certain occasions spreads like wildfire.

On Elizabeth Montgomery's Mom In the 1930s - Quick Addendum

  Correction, this is not Elizabeth's mom, Elizabeth Allen. It's a different Elizabeth Allen, a beautiful English actress who was born in 1910, six years after Ms. Montgomery mom was born. And to make it even more baffling there was a third actress named Elizabeth Allen. This one (also quite attractive) was born in 1929 and resided in the U.S..

   P.S. And in case you weren't aware, Elizabeth Montgomery's dad was Robert Montgomery (his wife apparently wanted to keep her family's last name) the famous actor from the 1930s and '40s and quite a good looking fellow himself. 

   I'm hoping that I cleared this up, or at the bare minimum didn't make things more complicated.

Good genes or what?
