So?

At best, one can say it is a “post-graduate” degree. Calling it a “post-doctorate” degree is very damaging. If she continues to refer to it as a “post-doctorate” degree the MSM will have a field day taunting her.

A JD is a doctorate. Her LLM was post doctoral. You are being pedantic.

It's considered post-doctural work by lawyers with a JD. I hope the MSM does try to make an issue of it, because it will only spread the word far and wide that she has a JD and an LLM, and whatever you may think about that being "damaging," it isn't. Stupid people don't get LLM's.

J.D. - Juris Doctorate

LLM - "post"-doctorate degree for Bachman

How dare she call her J.D. a "doctorate" degree!

Are you trying to make yourself look like a flake, FRiend, or are you just confused? You can quibble with the definition of what a J.D. is, but the degree has "doctorate" in one of the two words that comprise its title.

Your post reminds me of those who try and dissect what Sarah Palin says, only to find out that Palin was technically right, and people like you are wrong.
