Lovable Liberal and his Old English sheepdog

Today Lauren Boebert called Kamala Harris "the most poorly educated presidential candidate in modern history."

Harris has a Doctorate of Jurisprudence.

Boebert has a GED

Your thoughts?

My thoughts would careen me close to the drop off the clip of the banhammer

I do have a question, though -- why is there this excessive focus, certainly in corporate media, but even in this comment section, on the FACT of racism and misogynoir as opposed to a refocus of all that energy on ways and means to put a STOP to it?

Is racism, as some who are Not Me have posited, really that entertaining to White people?

I've probably mentioned this before but I worked with a guy who never shut the fuck up about his G-E-D like it was a god damned Doctorate.

Now be nice! Maybe the 2nd grade was really hard for a 15 year old.

I think Lauren Boobert should be laughed at and mocked for that comment.

But it wasn't just that Kelley thought Trump wasn't very smart. "I remember the inflection of his voice when he said it," Di Prima said of Kelley. "'Donald Trump was the dumbest goddamn student I ever had!' He would say that [Trump] came to Wharton thinking he already knew everything, that he was arrogant and he wasn't there to learn." Kelley likely taught hundreds of students over the years, so it seems like Trump made quite the negative impression.

What is this Kelley professor's first name?

And why does everybody continued to quote that thing he said that one time without any further follow-up?

William T. Kelley.

The statement is well documented -- and easy to believe because it portrays an obvious empirical truth.

I'm just wondering why he was the only professor willing to say so

I didn't ask what it was

I asked - in summary - why White people appear to be obsessed with The Problem to the extent of completely obscuring, overshadowing and blotting out any Exploration of Any Potential Solution to The Problem

Dunning–Kruger effect. Lauren is too stupid to know she's dumb.

Following the example of President Dementia (r.1981-1989), she's actually PROUD of her stupidity.

Bobo's "thoughts" are mostly tainted sliders of irrelevance.
