Back when the CCIE was the only certification you 
could get maybe this makes sense. However starting 
from the ground up makes more sense, why not get a 
good base and build your way up the pyramid?

You'll have gaps in your knowledge if you dont get a 
good base. In my view, being a CCIE is more than 
knowing about protocols and being able to find 
things on the DOC CD.

I wouldnt say that MCSE or COMPTIA certs are jokes, 
maybe to some people. But others have to start 
somewhere, might as well be there. Many people 
(including myself) started at MCSE and graduated 
along the path.
