During a press conference hosted by the Sunshine Movement, an advocacy group that leverages youth protests to oppose global warming, the 29-year-old Ocasio-Cortez said her Nov. 6 achievement ranks with the 1969 Moon landing and the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
'We've done what we thought was impossible,' she told a small crowd who braved 40-degree weather.
'We went to the moon. We electrified the nation. We established civil rights. We enfranchised the country. We dig deep, and we did it. We did it when no one else thought that we could. That's what we did when so many of us won an election this year.'

That’s just mean. They know good and well that it’s too difficult for a Democrat.
To: Vlad The Inhaler
Not funny! I had a liberal friend I worked with who got lost in a maze just like the one pictured and was never heard from again.
LOL

Every time I see her name,
this pops into my brain:
Proverbs: 16:18 Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.

When some DemonRats speak the jokes just write themselves.
When 0ccasional-Cortex speaks she writes the jokes.

I can assure you the nation is in trouble.
I see these fools at Yahoo. While a few have broken away, most have doubled-down on stupid. Maximum stupid.

Every time that I see the blank, wide-eyed expression on her face, I just imagine that her brain has a flashing message that reads “Stack overflow.”

You should see the idiots at Yahoo already praising her.
One could expect a certain naivete among the great unwashed and to be unlearned in general history.
But what is really scary is she is a Boston University graduate in economics(I'm not sure she could pass a home economics high school class in my day)
I'm just a high school graduate(I do have two years of college) and yet I dare say my general knowledge is vastly superior to hers
Doesn't speak well for Boston University and affirmative action

My guess is she’s scamming these idiots by spouting some nonsense all the time.
Doesn’t mean she doesn’t make stupid gaffes.
But her scam is paying off quite well for her. Right now.

Amen
The children of nation has derided the faith and intelligence of the Founding Fathers and their god for too long and it it only the beneficent of God that He hasn't 'whacked' us.
It's not biblically based but true nonetheless "Whom the gods would destroy they first make mad"
I fear we are in the first stages of the utter ruination of this once great country. Look no further than California for the rot has set in and will only spread as it's collapse will only send it's inhabitants to 'uninfected" states and nothing will be learned but they will say''we get it right this time"

Finally the mentally ill in this country have representation
. They've had a whole party since the 1968 Democratic Convention
Just as syphilis takes a time to incubate and spread throughout the body, so too did sixties radicalism spread throughout the nation though the original source of the infection had died(Soviet Communism)
. The nation is in the "tertiary" stage of syphilis and her election is the madness exhibited by those who refuse to get early treatment for the disease.
