You must have missed the P.J. O’Roarke comment. He said, “If you’re not a liberal in your 20’s you have no heart, and if you’re not a Conservative by 30 you have no brain. “
Chaffertz didn’t have a quarter of a brain then, it was busy in his trousers at the time.
Chaffetz actions haven’t demonstrated that he has anymore of a brain than he had back then.
