Though corrupt, Senator Farr nonetheless has a strong love for the Republic, or at the very least, the institution that allowed him to profit from exploitable loopholes in its immense bureaucracy. Still, for all his shady activities, he had a zealous hatred for the Separatists.

On numerous occasions Farr was very critical of Palpatine's handling of Separatist crisis. He often accused Palpatine of following his own political agenda to the detriment of the Republic.
