"SNIP.....

During a House Oversight Committee hearing on the 2015 Paris climate accords, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) questioned former Secretary of State John Kerry on how he could receive a bachelor of arts degree in political science, the Washington Postreports.

MASSIE: How do you get a bachelor of arts in a science?

KERRY: Well, it’s liberal arts education. So, it’s not really science.

MASSIE: I think it’s somewhat appropriate that someone with a pseudoscience degree is here pushing pseudoscience in front of our committee today.

KERRY: Are you serious? Is this really serious, this is really happening here?

It went on like this for several more minutes with Massie continuing to conflate natural sciences with social sciences.

1. Holy shit

This guy has a Batchelors and Masters degree in Engineering from MIT.

I can't really believe he is that dumb. I think he is just trying to play smartass and the ass is the only part that is coming across clearly.

3. It is like that story of the republucans smearing a Democratic candidate

in the early 20th Century by stating he had a sister who was a "known thespian in New York". They know low information voters will get the wrong message and that is what they want.
