I’ve got SAT, ACT, and ASVAB scores that indicate she’s probably not as smart as me.

Every accusation by a Democrat is, in reality, a confession.

Well, have you seen the vote results from the climate bill (A group of 50 Senate Democrats and 19 Republicans voted to pass the Kigali Amendment to the 1987 United Nations (UN) Montreal Protocol.) that the senate just passed? Kinda got to agree with the archive person. Then again, what is the alternative? Not exactly behind the Trump supported candidates we have coming up on the ballot where we are but.......................

“The ability so speak in very plain, common-sense terms to Americans,” Shogan replied.

Talk about "anti-intellectualism." This woman can't even string together a coherent English sentence.

The danger of electing a figure head for President is the people they tend to bring in. Who’s $$$$# is behind the appointment? Who is owed a favor? Politics where the appointments go to the highest bidder or special gift giver.

The Left’s Core Strategy #1: “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it." (via Rules for Radicals)

The Left’s Core Strategy #2: Scream accusations of racism(or racist attacks) at anything you don't like or which slows your agenda.

The Left’s Core Strategy #3: Intensely attack Republicans for actions you are undertaking.

The Left’s Core Strategy #4: Attack Republicans as stupid, but do not discuss it further.

The Left’s Core Strategy #5: When all else fails, censor speech and if needed deploy violence.

Repeat

Hawley noted that Shogan had said modern GOP presidents had adopted an anti-intellectual posture and asked her how to define such a phrase.

“The ability so speak in very plain, common-sense terms to Americans,” Shogan replied.

In the article, she wrote, “Republicans tend to exhibit anti-intellectual qualities. Democrats coalesce on the intellectual tail of the continuum.”

Speaking clearly and in common-sense terms means you’re an anti-intellectual. Because only deep thinking geniuses can get so wrapped up in intellectual clap-trap that they can no longer define “woman”.

Does Harley think we’re this stupid?

Of course populism is anti-intellectual. Are Trump’s arguments “intellectual”?

Hawley’s playing us for rubes who don’t understand the difference between intellectual and intelligent.

Any Republican who votes to confirm this bigot, and that is the correct terminology for her, is an appeasement weasel.

So-called "intellectuals" are overrated, usually by themselves.

I have worked with people who "knew it all," but had virtually no social skills.

Not pleasant to have around the office. Everyone was glad to see them go.

I suspect she uses “anti-intellectual” the same way as a some use the term “populist.” And yes, speaking to the American people in plain common sense terms is a plus, not a negative. “Intellectual” is not a compliment in many circles, btw. Remember what George Orwell said, “some ideas are so absurd it takes a real intellectual to believe them.”

Liberals have often argued that they are the smartest and their constituents are the smarter members of society.

But, at every turn, on every issue, on every policy and decision they’ve ever made, the country took a turn for the worse. How smart are they, really?

It takes a republican congress and republican presidents to bring the country back from the brink. That’s where the intellectuals reside, in republican circles. Smart decision-makers are not part of the democratic party. And this Shogun lady proves how dumb they are.

Hawley is pretty darn sharp, (and relentless).

I’d hate to be a leftist liar being questioned by him.

Was she trying to explain Murkowsky, Romney, and Collins?

Even an arrogant, smug, scuzz like her should know that nobody was more “anti-intellectual” than little willie clinton, unless she gave him a few lewinskys herself.
