MSNBC Info-Babe to Congressman: ‘Do you have a degree in economics?’ ‘Yes ma’am, I do. Highest honors’

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 if Congress does not raise the debt raising, the country would be “reverting into 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.” - realclearpolitics

When I was at Wayne State University in the early 1970’s I observed that the only major field of study that was “less rigorous” than elementary education was journalism.

This illustrates why teachers and journalists are not the cream of the intellectual crop.

Don’t most college football players major in communications?

It’s pretty much a dumbass degree.

And is your name by chance misspelled on the screen by one little vowel?

Okay, Fightin Whitey wants to buy a vowel. Is there a letter "U"?

Oh! My goodness Buford! You have caught me by surprise!!

I myself was thinking of course of the letter “a,” as in cant, i.e., “monotonous talk filled with platitudes; hypocritically pious language.”

The Cant-essa, so you see.

But you...and “u”...my guudness!

(lol man...literally...yours is a great post...even the funt was just the right size!)

“Uf cuorse..bot my mind is in the gotter”

By the curb in the water
Where the passions run hotter
Ms. Brewer, she did totter
From the nightclub—and Buford gotter!

(What I mean of course is, gentleman that you are, you CAUGHT ‘er and helped her to safety. You stod.)

(p.s. Don’t try tell me you were out there just looking for your usual midnight posse neither.)
