“Fox News Sunday” anchor Chris Wallace said on this week’s broadcast of his program that the “fuss” over Jill Biden’s title of “doctor” had not been applied to “Dr. Henry Kissinger, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King.”

Wallace said, “There has been some criticism recently from conservatives, including some conservatives on Fox News about the fact that First Lady-to-be Jill Biden goes by the title doctor. I wonder what is the Biden’s reaction to that, especially given the fact that so many people over the years — I think of Dr. Henry Kissinger, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King have gone by the title doctor, even though they’re not medical doctors and nobody seems to have made a fuss about that.”

“So, some educational scam was going on here.”

Sleeping with the professors?

“I still can’t figure out who really had the man killed.”

My theory is Jesse Jackson.

His ego is certainly big enough to have been resentful of being in MLK’s shadow.

Boy, Lefties sure are a sensitive lot.

She was also derisively nicknamed “Codoi” for her butchered pronunciation of CO2 (carbon dioxide).

Which would have earned you a visit from the Securitate.

“MLK didn’t go around letting people think he was a medical doctor. Jill Biden certainly has”.

But Biden’s son is a pharmacist!

I was trying to be nice, too many people with PhDs In Theology love to be called “Doctor.” I have always taken that as a hint to go elsewhere. Humility seems to be a lost art in some churches.

Years after I retired the Board of Corrections of Navy records, awarded me the Post 9-11 GI Bill. When I went to transfer it to my daughter, the Navy Chief (a friend) at BUPERS said I could use it to get my PhD. My response was at my age all that would just be window dressing on my tombstone.

It's like in Karate. To consider someone to be your teacher (Sensei) is a very important thing. A Sensei teaches much more then kicking, punching and forms. I have a Sensei who has been a guide in life for over 40 years. He has earned other titles in that time. But in our relationship calling him Sensei is the highest form of respect. In the USA, Karate people love their fancy titles. They glom on to Japanese titles that have long since lost their original meaning. They demand to be called by those titles and are insulted if you just call them Sensei. I am not sure about the rest of the world, but like those fancy Japanese titles, “Doctor” is a much abused title in the United States.
