I remember when I first told my colleagues that I followed every single CSS course on Lynda, they laughed. They thought why would you spend all this time on a non programming language?
No one takes CSS seriously. For most, CSS comes as an after thought. Build every part of the application then suddenly "Oh Right! CSS!" Slap bootstrap or other popular framework then don't think about it.
Yes, CSS is not a programming language like others but it is just as complex. It requires studying, practice and long exposure to become versed in it.
Note: you can google your way into using a couple jquery functions, but you can't become a competent JavaScript developer like that. The same goes for CSS.

It depends on the problem your trying to solve, if you just want something that looks decent (because you're a programmer and you don't notice things like colors, alignment and spacing) then something like bootstrap is a good go-to. I still think learning CSS properly is worth it, using bootstrap without knowing CSS is like using an ORM without knowing SQL, but less dangerous.
