Former Secretary of State John Kerry and Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., had a heated exchange Tuesday over Kerry's education and climate change.

Kerry, 75, appeared before the House Oversight and Reform Committee hearing to talk about climate change. The incredible exchange began when Massie read a quote Kerry said regarding President Trump’s advisers.

“It sounds like you’re questioning the credentials of the president’s advisers, but I don’t think we should question your credentials today. Isn’t it true you have a science degree from Yale?” Massie asked Kerry.

Kerry replied that he had a bachelor of arts degree from the university.

Massie replied to Kerry’s tweet saying, “It’s almost as if someone said, ‘No one has less knowledge of science, a higher opinion of himself, and a bigger carbon footprint than Al Gore’ and Kerry replies ‘hold my champagne, I’m going to testify as a climate change expert.”

Kerry is a doofus and a half but Massie showed himself to be a double doofus in this exchange.

Translation: he couldn't do the math or serious science. I wonder what his BA degree is in?

Whatever it was, it was enough to get him a commission in the USN.

From the article: “Is it a political science degree?” Massie, who has two engineering degrees from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, asked.

“Yes, it’s political science,” the former Massachusetts senator said.

A BA for Kerry and Divinity School dropout who got a C- in Science are now the brains on Climate Change.
You could drive a fleet of Semi’s thru this hole in logic and still the GOP-e says and does nothing.

The Deep Swamp gets deeper.

“Is it a political science degree?” Massie, who has two engineering degrees from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, asked.

“Yes, it’s political science,” the former Massachusetts senator said.

“So, how do you get a bachelor of arts in science?” the congressman asked.

“Well it’s liberal arts education and - it’s a bachelor,” Kerry said.

“So, it’s not really science. I think it’s somewhat appropriate that somebody with a pseudoscience degree is here pushing pseudoscience in front of our committee,” Massie said.

sKerry has a BA in Political Science. Essentially toilet paper when you get right down to it. No Calculus, No Newtonian Mechanics, No Quantum Mechanics, No Basic Chem, or Oragnic Chem, or Field and Wave Electromagnetism, or Partial Diff EQ's, or anything else besides beer guzzling.

If they did a remake of "M.A.S.H" Kerry could fill the role of Charles Emerson Winchester III

“Yes, it’s political science,” the former Massachusetts senator said.

That would make him eligible to speak about Global Warming because it is a political invention

When I was in the Navy anyone with a college degree would get a commission. It didn’t matter if it was Biochemical Engineering or Basket Weaving.

For the Navy, any degree, or none at all can get you one.

Not a big or complaint, just a fact.
