Every Baptist believes exactly as the Westboro congregation does. Did we hear gasps? It seems plausible since we've just seen where every Democrat is evil.
Very few institutions come with a one-size-fits-all label. We may be conservative to moderate, but we don't endorse everyone who dons such a name for themselves. Think Brett Kavanaugh.
Did you know that all current members of the Supreme Court graduated from Ivy League schools? Not sure which ones they are? Since there are only eight, here's the list:
- Brown University.
- Columbia University.
- Cornell University.
- Dartmouth College.
- Harvard University.
- Princeton University.
- University of Pennsylvania.
- Yale University.
Certainly there are many reasons for this, but nevertheless this one fact would suggest that others are not qualified. Just look at Trump's recent comments concerning Jeff Sessions and all of us dumb Southerners. Not one practicing attorney who graduated from the University of Alabama is worthy of the highest court in the land? Not one from a Texas law school? Or a California school?
So far we have at least four who have accused Kavanaugh of sexual impropriety who continue to stand by their stories. Not many? No, but how many women knew him in high school? It's not like he went to a large school or socialized with girls from large public schools. His social set was far more restricted than the Gadsden Mall. Obviously he met a great many more women in college, but his social circle would have shrunk after he graduated. If Kavanaugh's accusers are lying, just think of the gross dishonesty factor among a small number of women.
Trump has at least two replacements for Kavanaugh waiting in the wings. They're both conservative, and one is actually female. More gasps? Isn't it time that the Ivy League monopoly on the SCOTUS came to an end?

Here's a little tidbit thrown in just because it's somewhat troubling. Three women who attended Wayne County High School have accused a former coach of gross sexual conduct from decades ago. The former coach is now a Tennessee state representative. We're seeing some who are comparing this yahoo to Brett Kavanaugh. That's as in "poor, persecuted thing," not "abuser of women."
Anyone out there from Coffee High School who knows someone like that? Other schools? The one we remember best doesn't enjoy the public trust (much less the trust of his wife), so we're not encouraging anyone to come forward with names. We're merely suggesting some of you think about it and then say the Wayne County coach is innocent.
