It’s always nice to see people from Bethesda Excel. It’s one of the things that makes me proud to live in Bethesda ! I also know someone in my Family who worked with her who has nothing but good things to say about her !

I'll take your word for that 1229. However if any of you all want to get the true lowdown on the cretins running and working at the NYT, check out the story of Bari Weiss. She is a liberal, Jewish lesbian and not a conservative. Her news outlet is called the Free press.
