Title: Intellectually Honest Politicians
Post by: Dos Equis on February 04, 2021, 11:34:40 AM
I know they are few and far between, but I think Senator Rand Paul might be the most intellectually politician in DC.  I don't always agree with him, but he has convictions and he is consistent. 

Anyone else?

His father was much better and more consistent, in my opinion.

The Paul's and Trey Gowdy.

A few more i can't remember off the top of my head.

Not very common anymore.

Perhaps, although I'm talking about current members.

I like Gowdy, but he's gone too.  Seems like the good ones leave.  Like Harold Ford, Jr., Gowdy, DeSantis (although good have him as Florida Gov). 

Definitely not common.

LOL - Rand is one of the most intellectually DISHONEST people in the entire government if not the entire country

For a true example of intellectual honesty (and someone who actually understands he took an oath to uphold The Constitution) you can look to Anthony Gonzalez - Republican from Ohio

Rand Paul is a piece of shit.  In his case the acorn fell pretty far from the tree.  I'd never vote for his dad but he's consistent and that deserves respect.

Your opinion is shit until you get therapy for your alcoholism and TDS. I'm sure you qualify for free mental health treatment in CA. :)

Ross Perot

I remember when he ran for POTUS how he made everyone in the room look so stupid. They changed the debates because of him.

He was too intelligent and not personable enough unfortunately.

A shame isn't it?  You should see the two Senators from my state:  intellectually dishonest hacks of the highest order.  Not very bright either.  It pains me that numerous people around the country consider Senator Hirono to be the dumbest member of Congress.   :-\

He's not a politician, and he's a hardcore conservative, but Dan Bongino is as intellectually honest as they come.  He recently dropped Simpli Safe as a sponsor after they participated in woke censorship.  And now this?  If only more people had the stones (and the means) to fight back like this.

Trey Goudy (when he was in) and Jim Jordan. On a side note, Rand Paul absolutely CRUSHED Fouci

This guy had the hottest wife ever for what he is. Batshit crazy for the times though. Probably be kicked out of the party for being too moderate now.




EDIT:

Married in '05...she's only 43 right now.  :o

The guy is swinging plank.  ;D
