Who are the GOP Intellectuals, if any?

[Soggy in NOLA]

And why do libs worship faculty lounge theoreticians like Obama who've never done anything remotely worthwhile?

When did anyone ever say that the left values doing something worthwhile?

Well, there is that.

 

[whitehall]

I forget, did libs ever call Teddy Kennedy an intellectual? He was kicked out of college for cheating. Thanks to investigative reporting by the liberal media we knew every aspect of George W. Bush's college years but somehow the hysterical liberals won't release a single detail of Obama's college years. Is Barney Frank considered to be an intellectual? He managed to wiggle out of a felony when his boyfriend was operating a prostitution ring out of his apartment.

I love when the far left whackaloons tell us who the "good" conservatives are. There's a "D" list if ever there was one.

Well, I'd say Wicked Jester who writes porn about underaged black girls.

Going back to Ronald Reagan, he was a "B" movie actor.

Then you had A lister, Arnold, probably an even better actor than Ron, but an alien, can't be president.

Then you have bathing suit runway walker Sarah Palin.

Then there is "nude centerfold magazine model", Scott Brown.

Don't forget "talk show host" and "comic" and "strummer", Mike Huckabee.

Now there is reality TV show star Donald Trump.

When I see GOP, I think of these as the "intellectual heavy hitters". If not them, then who?

I'm not sure who they are, but they represent 6% of all Scientists.

I think PEW research may be wrong. If the USMB is any indication, the 6% number may be vastly over stated.

Public Praises Science; Scientists Fault Public, Media | Pew Research Center for the People and the Press

"If the USMB is any indication???" How many Scientists are on USMB and how many of those are Republicans?

[RachelMadcow]

Democrats are admitted Marxists


Very telling

Nor should there be. Conservatism is an ideal and a philosophy more than it is an intellectual proposition. It's about Belief as much as Logic. Therefore intellectualism is largely antithetical to the very idea of Conservatism.

You betcha

Anyone who went to a top University and majored in something that is not bible related is probably a commie

 

[NYcarbineer]

First signs that a conservative might be an intellectual...

Contempt for the birthers.

Contempt for Sarah Palin.

 

[Big Fitz]

Interesting little intellectual circle jerk you got going there, Hairnet.

 

[Quantum Windbag]

teapartysamurai, bucs90, and CaliforniaGirl.

The USMB conservative braintrust.

Together, they make up an entire "half-wit".

aw come on Dean,think of your own material.....did not someone say this about you and Mr Shamen the other day?.....

If they did they were lying, they are not smart enough to make a half wit even if you ass in a half wit.

I've found that self proclaimed intellectuals are usually nothing of the sort. And when self proclaimed intellectuals get political power, the people usually suffer.

You must admit, stealing other people's wages and labor is brilliant.


Immoral

but brilliant

Right wingers always think other right wingers are brilliant. Look at Ryan. All those "tax breaks" are "redistribution of wealth".

Patriotic Americans want to lift up all Americans. To build a strong country. To make a future. Republicans want to squeeze every drop of blood from this country and then throw it away. Democrats make the mistake that we are all in it together. Republicans say "fuck you all", if the vast majority of those on this board are any indication.

I am to busy focusing on this Train Wreck of an administration to worry about those Idiots.
