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.

And yet, these idiots consider themselves our betters.

Massie is an attention seeking you know what who also voted against supporting President Trump’s National Emergency.

Yes! Must go to the Fox News link for full laughs.... At John Kerry’s expense.

As Kerry tries to outmatch this Kentucky Rep w MIT degrees in engineering.

None of this is actually relevant.

What Massie needs to be looking at is Louisville Gas and Electric. LG&E is beginning their shift to renewables and neither Massie, Bevin, or Trump can stop it.

Lots of people on the right want to debate global warming but that is no longer relevant. They need to be paying attention to what is happening in their state on renewables.

Kerry made money the old fashioned way....he married it!... at least twice!

Does it really need a sarcasm tag?

Yep, not worth much. But he does speak French, dontcha know.

French is most useful in diplomacy and talking surrender, such as to North Vietnam and the Iranians. Kerry did excel at that.

Wasn’t true during Vietnam. Not unless you had a degree from an Ivy League school.

I don’t see how you get that. Did you read the article? I think it is a good thing to point out that climate change hoaxer Kerry has zero qualifications to back up his opinion. Kerry has a BA in Political Science while Massie has 2 engineering degrees from MIT. Who do you think knows more about the subject? Arrogant morons like J F’ing Kerry need to be called out. How does doing that make Massie a doofus?

I read the article and I read the exchange:

Massie:Isn’t it true you have a science degree from Yale?
Kerry: Bachelor of arts degree.
Massie: Is it a political science degree?
Kerry: Yes, political science.
Massie: So how do you get a bachelor of arts, in a science?
Kerry: Well it’s a liberal arts education and degree. It’s a bachelor…
Massie: OK. So it’s not really science. So I think it’s somewhat appropriate that someone with a pseudo-science degree is here pushing pseudo-science in front of our committee today.

It would have been most reasonable for Massie to point out that Kerry is not a scientist and therefore not qualified on the topic (or perfectly reasonable to call Kerry a moron in my opinion).

But pretending that you don’t know that Political Science is an arts degree and not a science degree and then calling it a “pseudo-science degree” is wacky. If Kerry was going around claiming to be a scientist or claiming to have a science degree, it would be a different matter.

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

Kerry has a BA in BS....with honors.

Massie has two degrees from MIT, i.e., bachelor’s in electrical engineering and a masters in mechanical engineering. He is an inventor who wonders some significant awards while at MIT. Massie is a real scientist, not a political science major like Kerry who claims to be a climate change expert. Massie put him in his place. It was wonderful to watch.
