Awww, they're so cute at that age.

Many empty heads out there, this is dangerous

There is more money in being a commie.

So true!

[BBQToadRibs]

Give her a Tide Pod. Let’s see what she does.

She also apparently doesn’t have a problem with anti-semites. She had one as a volunteer on her campaign, virulently anti-Semite, of the “Protocols of the Elders of Zion” type. It is (or was) all on his blog. He stood behind her when she gave her primary election victory speech.

"Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez believes in Mahatma Ghandi’s methods, Adam Smith’s analyses, and Pablo Neruda’s love."

The New and Improved Socialism!

Something for everyone!

[ArtDodger]

Sounds as if she has been issued a PR advisor to weave a fable of her past while others are making sure her real history is being scrubbed, ala obama.

Like the old saying, you get the feeling that under that 2nd rate mind there’s a 3rd rate mind struggling to the surface.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez sounds like a typical college intellectual trying to look smart by throwing names and words around.

[McGruff]

Oops. We hardly knew her.

[SeeSharp]

Not everything Smith published was true. He is, for example, considered the original source of the ideas that gelled into the labor theory of value. I suspect this was the Adam Smith she read and agreed with. Marx began as a Smithian too. We sometimes forget that.

Yes, I’m sure that the deep thoughts of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez are quite deep and quite thoughtful.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Waiting tables and getting stiffed on tips soured her on capitalism apparently.

[Enterprise]

You know who she reminds me of? The character Hilary, played by Karyn Parsons on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.

[ptsal]

Ocasio-Cortez what a gem! So, so precious.

[mrsmel]

The young woman in the picture appears less menacing, or something. But that’s probably my prior knowledge of O-C, in seeing that. I never saw the show.

[mrsmel]

*snort snicker*

[ModelBreaker]

She understands neither. These are buzzwords to sound smart and cool.

To get elected Communists must pretend to be conservative or have conservative roots.
