Jill Biden’s Doctorate Is Garbage Because Her Dissertation Is Garbage
You can tell someone is smarting from an inferiority complex when he insists on being addressed as “Dr.” on the basis of holding an academic doctorate rather than being a physician. Ph.D. holders who have genuine accomplishments don’t make you call them “Doctor,” which is why you never hear about “Dr. Paul Krugman” and “Dr. George Will.” None of the professors I knew at Yale, even the ones who were eminent in their fields, insisted on the title, and I think most of them would have scoffed if someone had addressed them as “Dr.” The only reason you ever hear the phrase “Dr. Henry Kissinger” is that Kissy grew up in title-mad, airs-and-graces Germany, where people are awed rather than dismissive even if you insist on a triple-serving title (“Herr Professor Doktor”).

The more she does this, the more I'm reminded of the part Steve Martin had in "Little Shop of Horrors."
ReplyDeleteIf Jill Biden's doctorate is garbage because her dissertation is garbage, that makes Jill Biden garbage...
ReplyDeleteThis piece about Jilly Biden was a fun read. Her train jumped the tracks long ago.
ReplyDeleteI worked in a couple of places where almost everyone (except me) had doctorates and no one was called "Doctor".
ReplyDeleteOn the "Ed.D" front, I knew a couple of teachers with Specialist degrees, which they always said were just like doctorates without the dissertation. I don't know if this is true but it does mean more money for a teacher.
My brother and sister-in-law use the form, "Dr. Joe Blow" and "Dr. Jane Blowkowski". They have scientific doctorates but I always thought it was pretentious and not customary.
I've always understood the custom to be that only medical doctors are referred to as "Doctor". Others are, "Joe Blow, Ph.D." or, "Ed.D.", etc.
I have seen better writings from a retarded 3rd grader. She cannot tell the truth about her affair with Brainless Biden so why should we expect her to tell the truth about her so called doctorate from the university that has a school with their name on it?
ReplyDeleteI have a degree in human psycho-anatomic studies and I didn't have to produce a dissertation. It's the result of watching assholes through a critical-thinking lens for 70+ years.
ReplyDeleteI read it, and also read the WideRides' paper from Princeton on blackitude n' shi
ReplyDeleteBoth are remedial. A gradeschooler would have gotten a 'D' on either of these Charmin substitutes. They have comedic value, and I encourage folks to download and save for future use as Tools of Derision against the shitheads who infect DC and fedgov
I have a cousin who has a PhD in High Energy Physics. He goes by "Jim". I worked with a guy in the Aerospace business who had a PhD in Divinity from some church and insisted on being called "Doctor". He could barely speak and read and as far as I could tell had no undergraduate credentials. He ended up getting fired.
ReplyDeletePilot: "Is there a Doctor on the plane"?
ReplyDeleteBiden: "I'm a Doctor"!
Pilot: "We have an emergency. Hurry, or he'll die".
Biden: "Sir, what were your SAT scores"?
Whoopies ignorance on the view video got me LMFAO so I'm good.
ReplyDeleteShe's one hell of as doctor."

Have you ever noticed that every chiropractor calls himself "Dr. Joe Blow" or something like it. As was said on "Two and a Half Men," The running joke was that Jon Cryer was a chiropractor, not "a real doctor."
ReplyDeleteI suppose that each lawyer could decide to call himself/herself "Dr. Joe/Jill Blow" or its equivalent because he/she has a Juris Doctor degree, but they don't. In my experience, anyone who signs their name and adds to it their law degree, J.D., never passed the bar exam and works as a claims adjuster.
For Jill, claiming to be a doctor impresses Democrats because most are too ignorant to understand the difference.

Jill Biden's title is about as important in my life as Michelle Obama's penis. One might be fake, the other isn't. Neither subject puts food on my table or a roof over my head. There are far more important things in life to get riled up about. But then I refuse to use titles other than Mr., Mrs., Miss, Brother, or Pastor. I especially don't use government employee titles.
ReplyDeleteWhen you start digging, you find not much about the "Biden's" is real. Let's not forget the speech plagiarism, and lies about his educational prowess.
ReplyDeleteI tend to call people who can wrote me a prescription for pain killers, or do surgery on me, "doctor." Everyone else, not so much.
ReplyDeleteI have no problem calling vets Doctors. At least most of the old ones actually were doctors, or healers. The new crop, I not so sure. And people who treat people? Most don't deserve the title. All they are is drug merchants for Big Pharma, and that should not even require a HS diploma
DeleteMedical docs have historically always been referred to as Dr. or Doc as far back as the medical field goes. But no where in any other field is anyone called by their profession or job title. People that are mechanics, plumbers, even attorneys aren't called by the job they do. Even the highest eduma-cay-tors are only called professor even ifn they got a doctorate. And all those plumbers, mechanics, farmers, welders, cooks etc. etc. are every bit as professional skilled and learned in their chosen field as medical docs. Other than medical docs most insist on being called dr. cause they are basically trying to intimidate those that didn't spend half their life in school they are more important. Which they are not, they're just a bunch of narcissistic poser hosers.... People are called by their name, not their job title...... get the hell over it......
ReplyDeleteLawyers are often referred to as esquire, and on their letterhead they put the L.L.D. after their name.
DeleteI call medical "Doctors" quacks. Much easier and truer.
DeleteWorking a trauma scene (air medical) and this guy walks up and says “I’m a doctor, can I help?”. My partner and I look at each other, I ask “what kind?”. His reply “of English”. My partner (medic) says “get the f:::: off my scene.”
ReplyDeleteJust because you have a degree, doesn’t make you smart,
Phd = press here dummy, Dr = don't resusitate. BOTH obedient rats trained by the same others to run the agendas maze so they can lord and ail others who are after the same rotten cheese,
ReplyDeleteCome on, now. I've known some fine medical doctors, a couple that I've been proud to call personal friends.
DeleteI call you 'sir' or 'maam' depending on the way you look to me.
ReplyDeleteYour opinion in the matter has zero-zero-zero influence on my decision.

PS:
Jill Biden didn't 'doctor' herself.
The principal of my high school had a PhD (or Ed D. I don't know) and insisted on being called Dr. In my freshman year, one of the science teachers earned his Phd. A general announcement was made more as a way to congratulate him. He didn't make a big deal about it but, all the kids started calling him Dr. He didn't mind and still answered to Mr. if you called him that.
ReplyDeleteI have a PhD. I use it to dig post holes. Get it? It's a PhD.
ReplyDeleteWorked with and ran into a bunch of people with PhDs in various sciences for over 40 years-never knew a single one who was routinely addressed "Dr."; whereas with highly trained ministers and educators maybe 40% preferred the "Dr." thing.
ReplyDeleteJill is a home-wrecker, a floozie, gold digger, and the wife of a decadent politician. Anyone see the correlation here?
Got a doctorate myself, and the only time I've even been referred to as "Dr." was in teleconferences with a German company, because titles are pretty important there. It was really kind of awkward, as I would never do so myself.
ReplyDeleteSee chapter 9 of Robert Heinlein's novel "The Number of the Beast". He has one of the characters describe how he earned a PhD in Education by attending worthless courses taught by egomaniac idiots, and submitting a thesis titled:" An ad-hoc inquiry concerning the optimization of the infrastructure of primary educational institutions at the interface of administration and instruction, with special attention to group dynamics desiderata."
ReplyDeleteIt is most enlightening, especially the part regarding a doctorate as a union card whose main purpose is to earn admission to Campus Academic Society.
Personally I prefer first names among colleagues. It’s “doctor” in front of patients, but that’s custom (that I’m not crazy about, but after 6 months of trying, I realized I can’t change the system).
ReplyDeleteBack when I was doing clinical work I always called PATIENTS Mr or Ms, or by their title (judge, officer, professor, whatever) until they told me otherwise. I think it’s good to start out a bit formal, to show respect. Most patients called me doctor, some called me Mike, which was fine with me. So long as it’s not a deliberate insult, I don’t care. (BTW, sometimes “doctor” is used very insultingly, as in a nurse saying “So, doctor, what should I do now, doctor?” It’s like a senior NCO calling the new officer “Sir” or “Lieutenant” in each sentence. When that happens, you probably done fucked up.
Personally I’ve got no problem calling a PhD “doctor”. Frankly a PhD is harder to get than an MD (if it’s not a bullshit-field). The MD is a trade degree. Show up, have a decent memory and regurgitate what they tell you, and you’ll get your MD. (The hard part is getting admitted to med school.) A PhD requires original work (in theory). The Pretty Korean Girl is a (STEM) PhD and I’m pretty sure she worked harder for that than I did for my MD.
As to DOCTOR Jill Biden, anyone who insists on their title, outside of a professional setting, is an asshole, at least in American culture. (Germanics are different, God bless ‘em. Not my circus or my monkey.)
My first wife had to take CEU's and if they counted for college credits, I'd tag along. One course was given by a Shrink type Doctor. He had a good story.
ReplyDeleteHe was at an event where he was the main attraction. Everyone had a name tag with their title. Ron put GPS on his. Lots of people cast glances, and finally someone said, I don't believe I'm familiar with that title?
Ron replied, it stands for my grandfather's green porch swing. It's where I learned everything that matters in life.
About his grandfather Ron said, he had barely a fourth grade education. He wasn't smart, he was wise.
As for his degrees, he said all they were were letters.
