JD said "masters degree" not a law degree and then he Wharton (think Harvard) as in Wharton is one of the best business schools in the country, most likely above Harvard

the trouble with rating business schools and engineering for that matter, some only offer a masters degree and Phd and no undergraduate, so when all of your money goes into the graduate programs it is easy to be top notch

Actually JD said that "only George W. Bush has a post graduate degree."

Big surprise, that coming from our resident expert on higher learning. But, he will probably unload some tiresome "rebuttal" about how one doesn't actually have to have an undergraduate degree if accepted into law school if the candidate has completed a pre-law program at the same institution. Of course, that's the case <10% of the time but, Corneyhole has never let actuality stand in the way of his self-described "correct" opinion.

Only George W. Bush has a post graduate degree. He has a M.A. in Business Management from Wharton (think Harvard) Business School.

how do you fix being stupid? a masters (MBA) does not equal a law degree but I understand randycandyforlittlegirls since you went to zerou, I did not say graduated

Please tell us "how do you fix being stupid?"

I was merely exposing JD's inaccurate statement that among the President's of the past 70 years "only George W. Bush has a post graduate degree."

A law degree is considered to be a "post graduate degree" and there are at least 4 additional Presidents from "the past 70 years" (Nixon, Ford, Clinton and Obama) with postgraduate (law) degrees.

One would have thought a teacher would have known what a "post graduate degree" is. Perhaps JD is not what he claims! Hmmmm!

How do you bait a hook? Put something out there that looks like something else and watch someone treat it like the real deal. Yes, a law degree is a post graduate degree but you admitted that Bush has a M.A. in business don't you know. So you can't complain that you were ignorant. As for our other lawyers; Obama and Clinton never practiced law. Obama taught and organized, Clinton taught (or his T.A. did) before becoming Attorney General of Arkansas, and F. D. Roosevelt dropped out of law school but got a job at a law firm after passing the New York bar. So much for your post graduate degrees. Only Bush used his degree.


Oh, I suggest you look up how law degrees are measured. Some are undergraduate degrees, some are called doctorates, and other are professional doctorates. They sound the same but are not quite the same.

The above is better referred to as, JD is trying his best to weasel out of the bad situation he created for himself. Why does it matter if any of them used their law degree professionally? That's not what you said. You said they did not have a "post graduate degree." End of statement! The fact remains, Nixon, Ford, Clinton and Obama all have a "postgraduate degree."

There is no denying the fact that your statement was 100% innacurate! Using a profession that you claim to know something about, there is not a reputable "teacher" anywhere (of which you are obviously not among them) that would have marked your response as being accurate.

As for GW having a postgraduate business degree, please post the link where I said (or even implied) that he did not! JD, you were wrong! Accept the fact that you had your ass handed to you and move on!

How do you bait a hook? Are you now professing to be a "master baiter"?
