TheHill.com ranks Max Engling as the Most Beautiful Person working on Capitol Hill. The Republican staff assistant did modeling before he pursued a career in politics. Mr. Engling gave up a lucrative career letting people take pictures of his body so he could help make America's government work better.
“You felt like you weren’t creating anything,” Max Engling says of modeling. “Your time wasn’t necessarily going to a good cause.” Many would argue that the same applies for those working on Capitol Hill depending on their political affiliation.
Personally, I would leave the modeling up to Bar Rafaeli, and I would work on Capitol Hill trying to make government more accountable to the people. What would you rather do?

THEHILL.COM reports:
Forget the Loaded Potato Skins. Max Engling was surely the best thing to come out of an Indianapolis TGI Friday’s, where he was waiting tables when a diner with ties to the modeling industry discovered him.

+2Ha!reply - lolitalovely 2012/07/27 04:07:16Model+1I'm no politician. I listen to what people want and understand that there are often greater things at play when a political decision is made. I could never take on the responsibility of making those decisions for a nation that can't know all of the pieces on the board. I can't know what every American would do if one country created an embargo on another just to spark war. I can't make those decisions for billions of people. I would rather be an artist making a statement.reply

- revbh carlton999 2012/07/27 00:56:00
+2True. I went to law school with some models and a Miss Washington. They had a lot of horror stories. They were also very smart and very nice people (and remain so)......too smart for Capitol Hill.reply - poprocksandcoke15 2012/07/26 22:02:09What's the difference?+1Meh. If I did become a model, I would be a hand model like in Zoolander. XDreply

- Rock 2012/07/26 21:07:58 (edited)ModelI'd rather not whore myself out, have loose morals, and I'd rather have a chance at a long career, thus I choose modeling.reply
- revbh Rock 2012/07/27 00:59:22
"Long" career? Think again!!reply - Rock revbh 2012/07/27 01:03:23
Me thinks you missed the point.reply - ZenerSix 2012/07/26 21:02:35 (edited)Work on Capitol HillI'd do exact what he did- be a successful model first, and then transition into politics with an awesome array of sexy glamor photos on google image search.reply
- smitty 2012/07/26 20:25:50What's the difference?+1Shovel ready jobs.

+1Obama should get the first shovel to go with the 1st lady etc etc.reply - BigFig#9 2012/07/26 20:21:28Work on Capitol Hill+2Was he hired for his looks - the guy's resume is definitely not thoroughbred political operative stuff... The kids I meet in DC staff positions all seem to be Ivy league post grad brainiacs - not former servers at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse... Maybe he's a diamond in the rough or maybe he's some donor's kid...reply
- ZenerSix BigFig#9 2012/07/26 21:04:39
I'd rather elect someone who cares more about maximizing liberty than the bottom line.reply - BigFig#9 ZenerSix 2012/07/26 21:24:17
+1That's how people like Michelle Bachmann, Sarah Palin and Louie Gohmert get elected - simply spouting off broad Mom and Apple Pie 'values' with no substantive understanding of government.reply - ZenerSix BigFig#9 2012/07/26 21:59:11 (edited)
That doesn't work on me so, I never voted for any of them. I voted for Ron Paul in the California primary. I'll probably be voting for Gary Johnson in November.reply - BigFig#9 ZenerSix 2012/07/26 22:39:23
+3Liberty at it's fullest is anarchy... There's a balance.reply - ZenerSix BigFig#9 2012/07/26 23:01:46
I'm no anarchist but I'd rather have a government that gives way to anarchy when it fails than one that taxes it's citizens to ensure it's existence and forges a police state around them to protect itself from them.reply - BigFig#9 ZenerSix 2012/07/27 21:54:35
That's quite a bit of hyperbole - While were not one of the 'very free' countries in the world (mostly based on moral restrictions, drug restrictions, and anti-terrorism measures where one might argue we are a uniquely positioned target) we are still very free and as to taxes, we're much lower at the high end than we were 1950-1990. Not sure you can make the case we're being taxed at any horrible rate compared to our past and not a lot of people seemed to compare about IKE the socialist who took 90% on millionaire's income.reply - revbh BigFig#9 2012/07/27 01:00:30
......or anything else.reply
