Carly Fiorina Says Degree In Medieval History Will Help Her Defeat Isis
Quote:For over three decades, Carly Fiorina's bachelor's degree from Stanford University in medieval history and philosophy has had little real-world application.

But as she mounts a presidential bid, the Republican candidate says her degree is finally of use as she considers how she would deal with ISIS as commander-in-chief.

"Finally my degree in medieval history and philosophy has come in handy," Fiorina said Sunday night, "because what ISIS wants to do is drive us back to the Middle Ages, literally."

Fiorina was responding to a question from a member of the military at a town hall in Windham, New Hampshire, who wanted to know how she could assure him that she would be serious in taking on the Islamic extremist group.

Unfortunately, iCarly, we no longer fight with swords and sheilds so and the damage of battle is far greater than the medieval kings could have imagined. If you want to grab a sword and shield and charge Putin's compound, however, I'll support you 100%.

I will actually give her a little credit, even though I think she sucks.

Medieval philosophy isn't exactly useless. In fact, I'd call it pretty helpful in business, law, and certain life situations.

In one respect she is quite correct; nothing much has changed in the region in the last 1000 years.

Maybe she can make a killer Cornish hen. ICarly expresses her desire to stray from the resemblance of Marcy Darcy!

Beat me to it. When dealing with cultures stuck in the 11th century, a medieval history background might be of use.

BRING ME ANOTHER ALE WENCH!!! (Seriously, the one I went too, wouldn't actually offer you more drinks unless you asked for it that way)

I was going to say the same thing, they're still 1000 years behind the times over there.
