A shocking indictment of how low the bar is to be considered an intellectual in Republican/Conservative circles. Wow.

Yep. The bar is so very high in Democratic/Liberal circles, who could possibly compete? Pelosi, Biden, AOC, Schumer, Sanders ... genius, pure genius.
Wouldn't it be wonderful to live under their yoke?

He is an intellectual. "Sasse graduated from Harvard University in 1994 with a bachelor's degree in government. In 1998, Sasse obtained a Master of Arts in Liberal Studies from the Graduate Institute at St. John's College. He also obtained Master of Arts, Master of Philosophy, and Ph.D degrees in history from Yale University. Sasse's doctoral dissertation, "The Anti-Madalyn Majority: Secular Left, Religious Right, and the Rise of Reagan's America", won the Theron Rockwell Field[7] and George Washington Egleston[8] Prizes.[5][9]"

Credentials matter not when it comes to geniuses, like Joe Biden. Check out his academic record, and subsequent instances of shall we say "borrowing" (be sure to note that law school record.)

You see, in the "mind" (this is not to say "thinking") of a "liberal" Sasse is the idiot and Joe Biden is a brilliant person: and this is all based, solely based, always based, on political party affiliation.

The "liberal" party has become a parody of itself. It is anything but.

I don't think this has anything to do with whether Sasse is an intellectual or is smarter than some other politicians. His educational background is impressive. He simply should avoided most of the attempts at humor in his graduation speech, which has been panned by people across the political spectrum. Conan O'Brien's graduation speech at Harvard a few years ago was hilarious. But the Conan O'Briens of the world are rare and apparent attempts to emulate them seldom turn out well.
