Scoff at this all you want, but on this point Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez sounds more mainstream — and bipartisan — than most would admit. During his 60 Minutes interview with the new House member, Anderson Cooper confronted Ocasio-Cortez with a whopper about Pentagon spending that earned her four Pinocchios at the Washington Post. Ocasio-Cortez replied that being “morally right” means never having to account for facts:

Altruism is at the core of this moral rot. Since sacrifice is good then no matter what deprivations you inflict it's automatically good since you are forcing misery for the greater good .The suffering itself is a sign that you doing the right thing under the altruist code.

[Bullish]

liberals have deluded themselves for so long that they’ll believe anything as long as it fits their political notions. They are ruled by emotions and in order to do that they have to throw all common sense and logic out.

[ImpBill]

"AOC has the implied authority of an elected position. AOC can spout things we know to be insane, and the morons will cheer.

Yes. However there are times that conservatives also have their fair share as well.

Isn’t that what Chuckie Todd unilaterally decided about climate change deniers? Must be a trend.

When I look at the personality of "O-C" I get the feeling she is going to be a force to be reckoned with. She has all the requisites for a powerful democrat party leader.

She seems to be immune to shame or embarrassment for anything she says or does. No matter how silly she might come across and no matter how much flack comes at her for a stupid statement or lack of knowledge, she just smiles and loves the attention.

Like Sheila Jackson-Lee, Maxine Waters, or the "dunce from Puget Sound", Patty Murray, O-C seems well suited to become bullet proof and own her seat in congress as long as she wishes to keep it.

Our university system turned out this mental midget?

When her CV says she graduated with a minor in economics from Boston University I didn't realize how minor it was until she opened her mouth.

“She is an idiot’s idiot with a little girl voice that gives expressive form to her thoughts and dreams.” — Scott Johnson, Powerline Blog. Well said Mr. Johnson. I would add: “An equine idiot’s idiot with evil eyes.” .

The fact is, she’s not morally right either.

You nailed it! She is the epitome of the self-righteous idiot, trying to buy love with other peoples' labor.

She is going to prove to be one of the best things to come along in a while to revitalize conservatism among young people. Mark my words, she is an asset. Shakes Pelosi will be as well, even more than in the past.
