    Hopefully she'll learn as she gains experience and avoids becoming another Dump. Certainly 12 years from now she'll realize she was grossly in error.

        Was that what I said? No. In fact, I specifically said to challenge and criticize her ideas. I talked about how dismissiveness of her as a political figure I've seen from conservative pundits is hilarious, not to mention ironic coming from the truly moronic set of Tomi Lahren (sp?), the ex-sheriff from Milwaukee who cuffed women detainees giving birth whose job it is now to polish Trump's orange knob on Fox News, Tucker Carlson, and Hannity. For them to call anybody dumb or vacuous? Yeah.

            Case in point.

            If Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez were a conservative

            If she were a conservative, Mr. Thiessen would be all over her with praise and adulation, just as he is with the Dump.

            Let me "fix" some of his words:

            It is a tremendous testament to America that someone who was working as a real-estate developer in New York three years ago can throw their hat into the ring, unseat a wide field of experienced Republican elected officials and get elected as the President of the United States. It’s what makes this such an exceptional nation. And it is obvious that he has political talent. But that doesn’t excuse him from the responsibilities as the president to learn the facts and serve his constituents.

                Michael Moore says Dems need to accept far-left Ocasio-Cortez as party leader: 'No middle ground anymore'

                Documentary filmmaker Michael Moore declared U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez the new leader of the Democratic Party, while urging political moderates to take a position because there “is no middle ground anymore.”

                “She is the leader. Everybody knows it. Everybody feels it,” Moore said of the freshman congresswoman from New York during a Friday interview on MSNBC.

                Moore said the age requirement to run for president - 35 - should be constitutionally amended so that Ocasio-Cortez could make a play for the White House.

                    I don't see any problem with getting a quick constitutional amendment done (the process typically goes very quickly). It should be easy to get 38 states to amend the Constitution so that a 29-year-old socialist can become President.

                      Why should the Constitutional restrictions matter? I mean we already elected a foreign born person in 08. [/s]

                            AOC's Green New Deal Proposal Is One Of The Stupidest Documents Ever Written

                            On Thursday, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) released a six-page proposal for her much-ballyhooed Green New Deal. Before so much as reading it, presumably, Senator Kamala Harris (D-CA), who happens to be a 2020 presidential frontrunner, endorsed it:


                            [...]
                            How bad is the Green New Deal paper? Putting aside the fact that, as written, it would receive a C+ in any high school English class, it essentially articulates a magical world in which the skies rain chocolate, the world is powered by unicorn farts, and AOC dances through the gumdrop meadows to Lisztomania. The proposal calls for the United States to be free of carbon emissions within 10 years without the use of nuclear power. It calls for every building in the United States to be replaced or retrofitted in green fashion. It calls for universal healthcare, free college education, the replacement of airplanes with high-speed trains, charging stations “everywhere” (this is the sort of exactness the proposal contains), replacement of “every combustion-engine vehicle,” government-provided jobs, family and medical leave, vacations, retirement security, and the abolition of “farting cows.” It also calls for total “economic security” for anyone “unable or unwilling to work.”
                            [...]
                            But, we’ve been told, AOC is the Fresh Face™ of the Democratic Party – So Fresh, So Face. Sadly, the intellectual content that emanates from that fresh face is indistinguishable from the product of the cows she seeks to abolish.

                            Even Pelosi mocks AOC's 'green dream' after she launches grand 'Green New Deal' that foresees a USA without planes or cars and would rebuild EVERY building in America within ten years
                            • Freshman Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez unveiled a new climate change initiative and had it swiftly knocked down by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi
                            • Ocasio-Cortez is promoting the 'Green New Deal' as a policy proposal as one that could become a massive vehicle for cutting carbon emissions and creating jobs
                            • Pelosi said that it's just a 'suggestion' and one of 'many' the caucus is likely to receive on green energy
                            • 'The green dream or whatever they call it, nobody knows what it is, but they’re for it right?' she said, mocking the democratic socialist's effort
                            • Pelosi announced a new climate change committee on Thursday - and Ocasio-Cortez was not on it

                            • Kamala Harris is so bad. Awfully bad. I’d vote for trump over her.

                              And why do liberals love trains so much. I don’t get it. Why replace airplanes with trains? It’s like they want to go back to the 1800s.

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                                Yeah, the Wright Brothers must have really done a number on them at some point.

                                I think this is all early sillyness on the part of the Dems. They'll get their act together, otherwise we'll be looking at Dump II.
