MSNBC's Contessa Brewer, you may remember just yesterday said the attack on Rupert Murdoch at a hearing encapsulated what the British were feeling. Today, Contessa "educated" a conservative Representative that without the bailout, the country would be in "a depression." Rep. Mo Brooks (R-AL) said he disagreed which prompted the MSNBC host to ask him if he had a degree in economics. "Yes ma'am, I do. Highest honors," Rep. Brooks responded. According to his Congressional page: "Mo graduated from Duke University in three years with a double major in political science and economics, with highest honors in economics. In 1978, he graduated from the University of Alabama Law School."

#60. To: Capitalist Eric (#59)
And if Goober would have read the program description, he could have understood that if he was capable of understanding. He's not capable.
Look HERE. Real World Managerial economics majors from UC Davis have entered careers in every area of business and industry, including marketing, analysis, consulting and financial service. They work with organizations such as Apple Computer, Deloitte & Touche, Mervyn's, Bogle Vineyards and Pacific Bell. Many have also become entrepreneurs, launching businesses in areas as diverse as real estate and magazine publishing. Others have entered advanced degree programs in business management, resource planning and law. Major Requirements You will begin your study with a series of core courses in management, economics, calculus and statistics, and either social, natural or agricultural sciences. You will then focus your studies on your specific area of interest, selecting courses in topics such as marketing, taxation, international commodity and resource markets, the role of government in business regulation, real estate and other investments. Many students choose to challenge themselves by enrolling in an honors senior seminar, where they develop projects on areas of personal interest (recent topics have included "The Effects of Tobacco PAC Contributions on Tobacco Legislation" and "What Drives Internet Sales?"). Oh, and gobshit? CHECK-MATE.
It used to be the leftists that had bumper-stickers that said things like "Question Authority.' Today they follow Orwells' mottos: War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength. They blindly LOVE Big Brother. They believe competition, pride & profiting from ones labor, are evil things to be banished. Stephen King once observed, "The beauty of religion mania is that it has the power to explain everything... [and] …logic can be happily tossed out the window. This describes socialists. They will ignore logic and "common sense." They will ignore REALITY. Because THEY are religious zealots... Their God... is the STATE.
You must admit- his dull stupidity is quite amusing... it makes one wonder how someone could be so consistently wrong, and yet be proud of that fact... LOL.

I have computer science degree. 4 semesters of calculus, differential equations plus a semester of linear algebra and two semesters of statistics... Goober has what? 40 years of screwing lug nuts into tires on the assembly before he took early retirement at Ford and leaching off of the taxpayers on Social Security. Very seriously, the guy misinterprets everything because he doesn't have any substantial experience in life. I've never met anyone besides goob who dosen't have any substantial experience in life. So, dealing with him is both frustrating and hilarious.
Yes, which is why I decided not to Bozo him like loonymon / winnyold. Goober is very amusing to me, so I will keep him around for a while. Kind of like a toy that I can wind up and spin around... Goober... love the hat LOL. Rules for Libtards #28). Say something so mind numbingly, idiotically stupid and be proud of it….. Rules for Libtards #35). When facts, statistics, intelligence or logic are beyond you, just pull something out of your ass and fling it to see if something sticks…..
When asked by a Liberal what I bought my Granddaughter for her 1st birthday I replied, "MORE AMMUNITION"!!!! -----------------------------"People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf."
Great find … Thanks.
I think he simply refuses to accept the truth because he believes he already has it. I will not attack his honesty by making this statement; I will only say that he is honestly mistaken in his thinking and conviction.
If someone with a Bachelor's degree I interview claims he has an 'economics' degree I would show him the door. But you right wing dupes like to be fooled. See Bush and his fake cowboy ranch act.

If someone like you asked me for an interview, I'd say "piss off." But the fact that you "interview" others, tells me quite a bit. So who's your boss? Rupert Murdoch? If nothing else, thanks for confirming why you defend the MSM propaganda; you're one of them. Asshole.

I can't speak for the Republicans but for me that is an insult.
Since you are so "astute" about the world with your many flavors of baccalaureate "degrees" and as you advance towards your own hard-worked doctorate, I was curious if you COULD ELIMINATE THE POLITICAL RHETORIC IN YOUR GODDAMNED PERSONAL BANNER CLUTTERING UP THE THREADS AND YOUR OWN FUCKING POSTS. Thank you, in advance.
Anything else?

If I were ever offered a job to work for you, no one would need to show me the door ... I wouldn't be there if the first place.
LOL ... I made my post above before I read this. Same sentiments ...
I have to log in to turn off your GODDAMNED POLITICAL RHETORIC as there is a method to suppress the personal banners of posters. I can eliminate graphics from my browsers but your silly SHIT is in ASCII. If I am offended the WHOLE FUCKING WORLD IS OFFENDED BY YOUR methods to smear your rubbish around this website. You are offensive to me. How and where did you even receive an opportunity for acceptance as a doctoral candidate? From candy college for a dime?
You must get a lot of offers for endorsements.
Eric is leading by example in the only why he knows how. He needs to be pitied as his ability to assess and evaluate his 'approach' are definitely lacking and yet are on display for the whole world to see.
Just another example of you sticking for another perverted member of your dysfunctional traitorous tribe.
Earlier, up the thread, he badgered Godwinson based on his own credentials. Yet one of the true measures of academic standing is the capability to express oneself with both written and verbal skills as a testament of accomplishment. Eric fails at written skills. He needs remedial action along with the illegal aliens receiving free college education; he can start at the bottom of the rung of manure to re-learn how to communicate because HE WON'T EVER WRITE A DOCTORAL THESIS.
"You must get a lot of offers for endorsements." Just another example of you sticking for another perverted member of your dysfunctional traitorous tribe. Even though you continue to fail to express a lucid thought, I'll ask you one more time: Why do you call me a traitor? What is my 'tribe'? Who is the perverted member of my tribe for whom I am 'sticking'.
His lack of insight is stunning.
Von Mises associates any Government involvement in markets as "Socialism" , to mislead people into thinking Government is the enemy , when infact empire is the enemy and empire is Privatized.
Awwww.... (((( *sniff* )))) Sack up, sonny. If speaking the truth is silly to you, then why bother coming to this forum? Nobody forces you to show up here. So you think your views- twisted and distorted as they are- are representative of the entire WORLD? Let's all have a piece of humble pie, shall we? LOL. Good. I enjoy tormenting those who are, shall we say, "reality-challenged?" LOL. LOL. I wasn't just given "an opportunity for acceptance..." They ASKED me to attend their program. Oh, and my class is quite small, and includes a lot of "heavy hitters." They don't have room for slouches... [Read that as: "They're probably NOT going to call you, bucky..."]

My sides are splitting, can't you stop your lies for even one second?
Have you considered that "they" asked you to participate in the hope that the program would remediate some obvious deficiencies?

So you've switched back to the "Ming" screen-name, eh, loony-mom? You're not one to discuss approaches, and who is (or is not) to be pitied. But since you've gone this path, a small corretion needs made: You state my "approach" is "definitely lacking." Were that true, little bucky wouldn't be whining about me. On the contrary, my approach has proven quite effective, in smoking out the socialist traitors on this forum. Oh, don't worry Ming/Loony-Mom, we already know you're a parasite, a socialist, and generally rather dull upstairs... So your continued attempts to have a "conversation" with yourself, or make hypocritical comments, are de rigueur. But having bucky come out so forcefully, stating that he is offended by my connection of liberals and socialists to 1984, was quite enjoyable. "Winning..." LOL.

ROTFL. What is the program? Internet Webboard chit-chatting about political hot-aire and advanced rhetorical smart-ass remarcks? You are either a GODDAMNED LIAR or (as I said earlier) you paid a dime to candy college.
I always thought Orwell would have made a great comedian. Jon Stewart pales in comparison. mininggold is retarded, I believe.
Bucky, if you go to [Setup] there is a preference to "view taglines" - if you uncheck that box it will eliminate Erica's clutter. You're welcome.
I know, someone as... "challenged" as yourself, finds such a concept as being invited to attend a Doctoral program so out of the range of experience, as to be an alien concept... [Then again, I doubt you've any experience with anything I've mentioned, so your laughter is based on ignorance.] The facts are as I have presented them. Were I so inclined, I could easily prove them to you- same as the proof I presented for my Bach.Sci. degree, HERE, and proving gobsheit to be a lying sack of sh!t. Easy-peasy... But let's be realistic; you're just another bimbo on a forum. I'll not sacrifice my privacy for you.

False logic; another reason why nobody will be calling you. As to being a "GODDAMNED LIAR," well... a lot of dullards think that. You're in good company. Here's a riddle for you, bucky... Question: What would be the POINT of lying? So you think whatever you want to think... and don't let reality EVER get in the way of your preconceived opinions, ok? 'Cause, if you did, then you'd have to face the fact that... you're an idiot. "Winning!" LOL.

Thanks Fred. I suppose that sort of selective filtering saves me from reading various poster's on these chit-chat channels when I am not logged-in. Can you tell me where I can find that selective filter when not logged in and wanting to read some some MORE serious posters discussions within my webbrowser or shall I have to write an add-on for firefox for free? I pick on Eric because he is full of hot-aire and he clutters up the thread with his personal banner which displays in ASCII. In fact, often his banner overwhelms the very ideas he is attempting to convey. Eric has no decency, no concept of serious communications or even debate. He pushes an agenda with is contrary to entire goal of these webboards; he is nasty troll similar to "yukon" in other words.
Is it possible for you to describe your doctoral program? What is the name of the college/university? What are the qualifications for admission? What is required for and about the completion of your doctoral thesis? Those questions should be easy to answer without revealing any personal data, Doctor Eric.
Another thank you!

No. Incorrect. As I said, my program is quite small. It's the only one of its kind in the world. Oh, and for the record, it's a "brick-and-mortar" school, not an internet-based program...

I sense an awful "lot" of abstentions/lack of participation for someone that really has no ranking or capability to profess his own academic credentials. Yet, you were eager to thwart Godwinson's ideas. You made your own academic credentials a necessary part of the discussion as though you had SOME GODDAMNED RIGHT to throw you various academic degrees around because you are an authority. OK, you can't discuss the participation of your current academic goals any more because it is some sort of "secret." Perhaps, you can fill us in on the THREE baccalaureate programs you claim to have completed? What schools did you receive your degrees from? What were the major fields of study? Thanks again, in advance.
Where? What field? Show us your credentials!
You're welcome. I just activated it myself and can't view your tagline now. Did you see war's reply here today?

The managerial economics major at UC Davis goes beyond the limits of traditional economics and business majors, blending a thorough grounding in economic theory with business knowledge and applications. You will specialize in at least one of three options: managerial economics, which focuses on evaluating, financing and managing business activities; environmental and resource economics, which focuses on issues related to use of resources and environmental quality; or agricultural economics, which focuses on the business aspects of producing and marketing foods and fibers. The real- world focus of this major provides ideal preparation for transition into the business world or to postgraduate business administration programs.
