Christine O'Donnell's LinkedIn Says She Studied at Oxford
(Sept. 15) -- Did Sarah Palin-backed tea party heroine Christine O'Donnell really study at Oxford?

A public LinkedIn profile under her name appears to claim as much. Under the education heading, it lists "Post Modernism in the New Millennium" at the University of Oxford. Have a look:


O'Donnell, who swept to an upset defeat of nine-term Congressman Mike Castle in Tuesday's GOP primary, hasn't yet mentioned an Oxford connection on the campaign trail. So what was the course, and how long ago did she take it? Surge Desk searched Oxford's course library and did not come across any current class or symposium under this name.

Oxford personnel couldn't provide any clarity on the matter either, aside from directing our calls to the continuing education department, which said the course likely would have been taught.

But a clerk in the department of continuing education, whose name is withheld here by request, said, "No such course is currently offered. It may have been offered in the past."

5. So let me ask this...

If we find O'Donnell or any Repuke is well educated at a prestigious school, are they part of the intelligentsia? I thought those people were out of touch and we shouldn't listen to them.

14. Maybe she was referring to this:
Take the next step in improving your child’s grades — talk to us to find out how!

16. She probably watched a youtube called "Post Modernism in the New Millennium"
That showed pictures of Oxford.

Same difference.

18. What about her Medal of Honor from the Korean War?
When she single-handedly rescued a camp full of POWs? Surely that's on her LinkedIn profile. :shrug:
