"Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who will represent New York in Congress in January, has once again proven she’s more interested in misleading Americans about single-payer health care than having an honest debate that’s based on the facts."

Is it that she's deliberately trying to mislead people, or that she just doesn't know what she's talking about? Give her the benefit of the doubt!

Using the word misleading indicates that she knows what shes talking about, She is dumb as they come. This is what you get when uneducated voters vote the uneducated idiots in to represent them because they promise candy.

The Dems are way too serious that’s why they need her for comedy relief.

Is it just me or is Occasional-Cortex starting to make Joe Biden seem smart by comparison?

10 years ago I wouldn’t have believed that something like this could get elected. Today? After the likes of Obama? The popularity of Bernie? Anything goes.

Number four in her class at Boston University. That’s Affirmative Action right there folks. Guess we are lucky she decided to not attend medical school.

Death panels are composed of government bureaucrats or policymakers who decide which health care treatments will be covered in a single-payer or government-run health care system.

Nope.

It is not just "not covered" but "Not allowed to be given or sought after even in another country on your own dime".

This is already being done with children and the elderly.

Sadly it happens in the US as well. When you take a child to the hospital, if you disagree with the course of treatment they lay out you would think that you could just go elsewhere. Not necessarily. The hospital can call CPS, take custody of your child and do whatever they please.

However bad you think it is, it is far worse then you imagine.

"Ocasio-Cortez likely knows much of this, of course."

The writer gives her far too much credit.

“She’s getting way too much press...”

I say the more press for her, the better; she continues to reveal herself to be completely ignorant and unhinged.

The Democrats already have “comedy relief” - Michelle Wolf.

At the White House Correspondents Dinner, this bizarre excuse for a female launched into an attack on White House spokesperson Sarah Saunders in a virulent and sick manner, then the kind of “jokes” just deteriorated from there on in. And it was all thought of as “high humor” by the majority of the correspondents seated there.

To the Democrats, it is not funny unless one of the “enemies of the people” (which is anyone who stands up to the daily assaults on on manners and calm debate) is lying bleeding on the floor.

Callous does not begin to describe their brand of “humor”.

AO-C is their “calm vice of reason”. Whatever humor she brings to the conversation is purely unintentional. And she remains totally unaware of the mirth in her wake.
