Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the socialist congressional candidate from New York who touts honesty and authenticity as her greatest strengths, used to describe herself as a follower of Adam Smith, the so-called father of capitalism -- and said that terms like “feminism” and “empowerment” were “relics from the past.”

True - lie to get elected, then loot once in office.

I have recently read that she has partnered with Linda Sarsour, so it isn’t surprising that she has anti-semites influencing her campaign.

The great disadvantage of the left, the deep state and evil movements in general is they all depend on lying to get their work done.

This is a huge disadvantage because everything they say is presented as though it were true.

So you can see, that which they pretend to destroy and to hate above all else is also their master on whom they depend for everything they do.

Interesting! A Socialist candidate who might favor sharia law someday.

Just like Obama, America gets to suffer as these freaks experiment with their own identity.

In the show, the character Hilary was an air head, but she was a fun part of the show. Cortez is an air head without the fun.

There are still parts of the economy suffering because of Obama. His evil lives on.

Didn’t Hillary do the same thing? Claimed she was once a Republican? Was so patriotic she tried to join the military but was rejected because she was a woman?

He is, for example, considered the original source of the ideas that gelled into the labor theory of value.”

And that is a pretty colossal screw up. Probably leads directly to Marx, in fact.

I searched and she was once a “Goldwater girl.” The goldwater takes on a new meaning since she smells like boiled cabbage, urine, and farts.

And she’s an Ayn Rand advocate, I’m sure.

Once?! She is only 28. So she like chocolate yesterday, and vanilla today. This is impressive.

I was thinking more along the lines of Pinky from Pinky and the Brain.

Other possibilities would be:

Spicoli

Butthead (Beavis and Butthead)

Stimpy (Ren and Stimpy)

Or anyone from Idiocracy.

Until she realized how gullible and naive the leftist voter base is.
What better way to reach money, power and fame then to pander to those idiots..

empty heads....


Notice how, as liberal columnist Mitch Albom pointed out, young people at any service counter have to have the same things repeated again? For:I want 2 Big Macs,1 large fries and a medium Diet Coke. For here.
They say: 1 Big Mac (no, I want 2),
do you want anything with those? Yes, 1 large fries and 1 med. Diet Coke. Anything to drink? Yes, Diet Coke, Med. Is that to go or for here today. Here.

Now that I read his old column I notice it all over the place in Big Box stores,sit down restaurants and every counter.

Probably brain change due to M-TV quick cut videos, then sudden song changes on music playlists,then instant changes on computer screen and finally smartphone with an icon and a sudden expectation of a new reply from the system. No thought or continuity of memory required, just tap with a finger again.

Karl Marx read Adam Smith to figure out how to tear capitalism down.
