Chicken Little: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is the new Al Gore (What will she do in her final days?)
Washington Times ^ | 1/22/19 | Joseph Curl

Posted on 01/23/2019 3:50:11 AM PST by Libloather

**SNIP**

There’s a reason fake climatologists keep making outrageous predictions based on flimsy science: Money. Mr. Gore’s net worth is in excess of $200 million. He jets everywhere to give his doomsday speeches (often $100,000 per), and he lives in a 10,000-square-foot mansion that expends 21 times more energy than the average U.S. household. But do as he says, not as he does.

Enter Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the 29-year-old former bartender who’s putting the “socialist” back in the Democratic Party. At a Martin Luther King Day forum in New York City this week, she said this: “I think the part of it that is generational is that millennials and people, in Gen Z, and all these folks that come after us are looking up and we’re, like, ‘The world is gonna end in 12 years if we don’t address climate change.’ Your biggest issue, your biggest issue is how are going to pay for it?” she said incredulously.

“And, like, this is the war, this is our World War II. And I think for younger people looking at this are more, like, how are we saying ‘let’s take it easy’ when 3,000 Americans died last year. How are we saying ‘let’s take it easy’ when the Nth person died from our cruel and unjust criminal justice system?”

Like, totally.

Cortez lives on an island. That's bad after the water rises. She'll have to move. That's bad since it may mean going to a district where she cannot win. Will she curtail her earth-killing airplane travel? Can she back off using dead trees to write on? And this is only chapter one.

Bold! Insightful! That statement alone should get AOC the Nobel Peace Prize.

It’s still hard for me to believe that the people of Staten Island elected this ignorant, foul-mouthed, delusional twit to office. Of course, New York regularly produces horrible Reps (look at Jerrold Nader, who I remember putting his fat, socialist self at the top of the stairs on the subway entrances to spout his socialist conspiracy theories...he was so fat that you could barely get by him, and so greasy looking that I was surprised even Dems were willing to shake his hand).

She reflects the people who voted for her and the big money that put her in place. She’s here to stay.

... ‘let’s take it easy’ when 3,000 Americans died last year.

TODAY, about 3,300 will DIE from CHOICE.
