Figures. Not a nice couple.
Adds a totally new implication to the nickname, “Plugs”.
What type of Doctor is Jill Biden?
PhD, Education. Here's the funniest part, she's not even a professor - she's an instructor at a community college.
My wife, who is also a PhD (literature) and is a tenured professor at an actual 4-year university, laughs every time she hears "Dr. Jill Biden". My wife NEVER uses that title outside of an academic environment.
I would add - have you EVER heard Mrs. Lynne Cheney refer to herself as Dr. Cheney? Of course not. But, Lynne IS also a PhD who is WELL published and has held leadership positions in multiple academic and government organizations . More evidence all the Biden are pompous d-bags.

David Bohnett has long been an avid supporter of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgendered (”LGBT”) movement. In delivering his acceptance speech (bohnettfoundation.org/speeches/view/35), Bohnett spoke out against religious institutions which oppose the homosexual lifestyle, stating that “In order to achieve permanent and lasting gains and maintain our momentum its important that we target the sources of the intolerance and discrimination towards lesbian and gay kids and their families.” Bohnett went on to say, “Its time to combat head-on the religious organizations that are funding the opposition to marriage equality and safe school legislation.”
