Ocasio-Cortez Attacks Senate GOP for Ignoring Bill That Hasn’t Passed House
The Washington Free Beacon ^ | 11 FEB 2019 | Alex Griswold

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) attacked Senate Republicans Monday for sitting on a bill that in actuality has not passed the House of Representatives.

Ocasio-Cortez received thousands of retweets for a tweet claiming that the "For the People Act" had passed the House with over two hundred cosponsors. "Now it’s at the Senate," she wrote. "GOP is calling getting money out of politics a ‘power grab.'"

Percheron.

I had to look this one up....

The Percheron is a breed of draft horse that originated in the Huisne river valley in western France, part of the former Perche province from which the breed takes its name. Usually gray or black in color, Percherons are well muscled, and known for their intelligence and willingness to work. Wikipedia

...... So you used this word correctly, but with one major difference. The horse is intelligent. OCS is definitely not.

Some people wonder why it took so long for women the get the right to vote people like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez caused it.
She is shaming women who are the smart ones.

Yep, and wonderful disposition. In other words, they’re conservative.

I knew your question was rhetorical but I was making a point about the press not doing their jobs anymore.

"I simply adore this woman."

I despise this millennial dumass and her growing ilk. She and her other indoctrinated idiot socialists are going to be the death of our nation.

Many think it's a good thing as she spouts off her ignorant rants. They think her type will expose the democrats for what they are and more will vote RINO. What people fail to understand is the dims have been socialists for decades through incremental steps. AOC is building on that and exciting every gimme-stuff parasite that thinks the world owes them.

We older conservatives are dying off, but every day the socialists are growing. Even the old guard of the Dim party is following her lead or saying nothing.

Don't believe me? - count the new/old House critters who support this childish unknowing little girl. Don't think it won't happen in your district, regions, or state? The solid conservative Orange County, CA turned blue this mid term, not to mention the entire State that was once Reagan territory.

Sorry to be a downer, but I'm glad I'm in the home stretch and hope I'm gone before I see our Republic completely fail. "It's a Republic, if you can keep it." Looks like ole Franklin had a point.

"That, said, if somehow it did pass the House, the Senate WOULD ignore it! And rightly so."

I'll be surprised if we keep the Senate in 2020. The millennials will make sure of it. America is heading down the same road as Europe. Personally, I'd like to see at least half of the colleges and universities shut down. If not that, eliminate the stupid humanity majors. Let these wannabe marxists find a job or create something of value or live on the streets to go dumpster-diving for their existence.

The Dems have so completely surrendered the middle of the country, that they may never take the Senate again.
