Paging Elizabeth "Pocahontas" Warren. Please pick up the nearest white courtesy telephone.

The NYT is working overtime cranking out the hit pieces.

[chuckb87]

And Michelle Obama is a woman.

[Tell It Right]

I have a degree in education.

My BS in computer science was actually educational, unlike most degrees that the political class favors.

[Wuli]

Better that than the actual phony “degree in education” (indoctrination) the colleges hand out.

[RoosterRedux]

Yeah, but was she at Tiananmen Square when the tanks rolled in?

[BipolarBob]

I don’t have a BS degree but I should have a degree in BS. I’m that good.

[dforest]

Linda is great. They bitch about everyone. Every time they bitch we need to post a picture of who Biden/Harris embarrassed us with for 4 years.

[HYPOCRACY]

I heard she got a B- on a quiz and lied to her mom about it.

[TheThirdRuffian]

Wow, that’s the weakest hit I’ve ever seen.

She must be clean as a whistle.

Who cares? That dept. will be eliminated anyway. Its budget is around $235B and has shrunk from around $600B in a few years.

[nutmeg]

Bkmk

[jeffersondem]

Doesn’t matter.

You don’t need a degree to serve in a temporary role until the department is closed permanently.

[AZJeep]

Seems a completely innocent error to me!
Those people are trying very hard to smear everybody around Trump.
Sick!

[oldernittany]

Did she serve fries at Mickey D’s?

[Flaming Conservative]

I don’t care if she’s an uneducated fry cook; Trump deserves to get his desired cabinet!

[Governor Dinwiddie]

An "Education Degree" is the last hope for someone on the verge of flunking out completely. It's the booby prize for losers.

[Leaning Right]

> a bachelor’s degree in French and a teaching certificate from East Carolina University <

I’m a retired teacher. The key is her teaching certificate. Told hold such a certificate she had to have taken many education courses. So, yeah. I see no problem here.

Oh, and one more thing. A true “education degree” is worthless. It’s nothing but nonsense. There’s no accepted body of knowledge. No rigor. Say anything you feel like. Collect the degree.

That McMahon holds a French degree is much more impressive. She actually mastered a real subject.

[workerbee]

Ok, but is she literally Hitler?

[Worldtraveler once upon a time]

And the Democrats get a transsexual from Delaware....
