Apparently, there's a difference between a degree and a certificate...


This lawmaker’s bio touted a business degree. It was actually a Sizzler training certificate. - washingtonpost.com

LMAO....I can't stop laughing!!!!

This guy is your typical righty doofus on top of everything else. Look at the bill he proposed for state universities:

Quote:
Under the proposed bill, a job candidate who is seeking a position as a professor or instructor would not be hired if his or her political party affiliation on their hire date would “cause the percentage of the faculty belonging to one political party to exceed by ten percent the percentage of the faculty belonging to the other political party,” the text states.
Dude needs to stick to making steak fries.

You know, this is pretty darn hysterical.

If that guy really thought his in-house certificate was the same thing as a business degree - he's just too damn dumb to hold office.

And if he did know that that his in-house certificate isn't the same thing as a business degree - then he thinks his constituents are too damn dumb to know the difference.

Probably both. And I would guess that he's right about his constituents.

"I didn't mean to mislead anyone." That is exactly what he meant... Politicians should be required to speak truth at all times.

So...he used to manage a Sizzler? What is really sad...that's more management experience than Obama had when he took office. Not to mention, more than Hillary ever had.

This is proven by the fact that more of them voted for him, than the other candidates.

Reading the article, he is just pretty complaisant about not having a college degree but representing himself as a college graduate...
Likely regards a college degree as pretty useless...
And likely his constituents won't give a flip that he scammed them (like Trump did his voters)...

There seems to be an epidemic of lying by Republicans lately.

He's overqualified to be a Republican.
