Why Do Republicans Question The IQ Of Opinionated Women Like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez?
Newsweek ^ | November 27, 2018 | Chelsea Handler and Glen Handler

Lately, it’s been hard not to notice the resurgence of the grand old patriarchal political strategy of demonizing women.

Republicans have been championing forced birthing and state control of the nation’s uteri for decades, but now the right-wing appears to have officially adopted the modern witch trial as the proper antidote to noisy Democratic women.

The witch trial of Hillary Clinton is the most famous right-wing ‘success story.’ By portraying a hard-working policy wonk, healthcare champion, and former Senator and Secretary of State as an evil witch, the Republican Party was able to bless this great country with a nationwide expansion of Trump University. Who needs a smart, ‘boring’ woman when a philandering male megalomaniac and bankruptcy-filing expert brings so much more to the table, right?

The answer is because you can’t sex-type stupid. Stupid people come in both sexes and all genders, is not limited by race, creed, color, religion or national origin, disability, veteran status, handedness, height, or weight. As Forest Gump’s mama says, Stupid is as stupid does.

Because she says a LOT of ignorant stuff.

Stuff that a properly educated third grader would know.

Stuff that is common knowledge.

This shows that she was not properly educated, is ignorant and has no desire to learn.

The first two items can be overcome by the last but it is no where in evidence.

Next stupid question from the drunk?

Because, as my late dad would say, she doesn’t have a brain or a place to put one.

“LOGIC “

A racist, antiquated idea created by a bunch of white Europeans.

I have no idea what her IQ is, and don’t question it, and have no suspicions it might be low.

OTOH, she is obviously dumb, lacks smarts - something completely orthogonal to IQ. What makes it particularly entertaining is that she lacks an ability, at least common with most congresscritters, to recognize lack of her knowledge. Without filtering, she just spews out the first thing (or anything for that matter) that comes to mind.

It is also troubling that she has made it this far, without even sensing the need to read even a pocket Constitution. Now, if I’m wrong on this and she indeed *has* read the Constitution, then and only then, will I question her IQ.

I also think she messed up on the branches of government. She called the Congress and the Senate two of the branches of government. LOL

there’s not a thing wrong with opinionated women, except when just about everything that comes out of their mouth is fabricated, distorted or just plain laughable in its stupidity. Same as for opinionated men.

She may not be stupid, but she is demonstrably ignorant and foolish. Chelsea Handler, on the other hand is the real stupid one.

There was a time when a BA in Economics from Boston U was seen as a nice resume enhancer. Loopy has single handedly erased that viewpoint from reality. I know at least three female bartenders of her age at The Blind Tiger on Bleecker St, about 10 blocks from Loopy’s Flats Fixed who are so much more intelligent than Loopy. The three gals are Libs, one even from Portland, but they are intelligent, willing to listen to other views, and each with a sense of humor. And they know their craft beer.

Actually, based on her and others, I question the ability of the Ivy League schools to educate their students.

The Left has been promoting her as the Red “It Girl.” Why so much attention? I know of incumbent congressmen whom I don’t hear beans from between elections, but this one is all over the news every day. Is it our fault that she gets dressed every morning with a “kick me” sign on her back?

“Opinionated” is not a valuable trait in the ignorant. :)
