Hey bob since I know you’re missing mainstream media links from fine conservative outlets here’s a tweet from one of our old favorites, the gateway pundit. He’s really really nailing how solar panels work in this one.

so another white guy threatened by a bright, independent, brown woman?

[Heat Miser]

Solar panels don't work in the cold? Somebody better tell NASA quick! Lives are at stake up there!

lead story at Fox News..

New York Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Monday unveiled new details on the so-called "Green New Deal" she plans to introduce in a matter of days, as she worked behind-the-scenes to rally congressional support for the proposal that could cost as much as $7 trillion.

plus, she's a) brown and b) a female.

Congressman Dan Crenshaw tries to take shot at Ocasio-Cortez, gets eviscerated by Twitter users

“Should someone propose a 70% tax on the Patriots so that NFL competition is more fair and equal? Asking for a friend,” tweeted Rep. Crenshaw (R-Texas) following New England’s win over the Rams in Super Bowl LIII.

I'm guessing that they know their constituents are ignorant and easily duped by half-baked false equivalencies. Kinda like Goose.

He has to back Trump. For all of the sheep talk Democrats get the Trunp support takes the cake.

I like Dan too, his SNL thing was cool and even before being elected he seemed smart. It's like they get to DC and leave the heads at the airport. Almost robot like.

true - and it's in the best interest of the republican to keep the electorate ignorant.

he seems like a decent enough guy, but it's not a personal comment on him - as Heat indicated, he needs to make sure his constituency remains ignorant.

I get the biggest kick out of how absolutely terrified the right and the media is of AOC.

[Dr. Strangelove]

It wasnt even that much of shot but the Twitter reaction was overwhelming.

The real bite from her proposal wouldn't be the 90% bracket but what she would do with the rest of the brackets.

In 1960 the Uncle Sugar had a 91% bracket but starting taking half from earners who made in today's dollars $168k on a joint return

[Robert J Sakimano]

her guest at the racist, bigoted christian sexual predator's white supremacy address tonight is the "activist" (i.e. a lady with an opinion and a First Amendment right) who confronted Jeff Flake in the elevator.

great choice.

of course, the fine patriots at Fox News are outraged..  

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s guest for the State of the Union address is an activist who cornered then-Sen. Jeff Flake on live television last year to protest his support for Brett Kavanaugh ahead of the Supreme Court justice's confirmation.

Wall Street Journal opinion pieces have turned into Breitbart light. Also how does someone look at a loss. Maybe confused? I guess she looked sullen but that teenager item was just a personal jab.

Bob's right they must be worried.

You guys realize it's possible to disagree with someone and not be scared of her bc she's a woman of color, right ?

yep.

unless your a racist misogynist and/or support those that are.. in which case, I'll assume that's the basis of your disagreement until proven otherwise.

[msugolfguy]

Yeah absolutely.. the straight jacket reference was a little much. Because that plays into the Liberalism is a mental illness so really no facts about policy disagreements. Then she throws in the teenage jab for fun. Another low blow by peggy.

I'll agree she looked Sullen and maybe upset but that's again just her opinion. I'd rather have Peggy and her debate the issue.

"sullen" is the new "she should really smile more" nod to misogyny.

Peggy Noonan is the definition of a dotard.

it's one thing for the male political/media elites to attack a young lady.. one would hope for a little more from a female, though.

but.. here we are. AOC is the new Hillary, I reckon.

Except Hillary strategized early in her career (and late in it, let’s be honest) about how to appeal to those constituencies she thought she needed. Cortez is having none of that.

well, yeah - she's a career politician. It's what they do. The problem is that that women are held to a different standard than men.

I believe AOC knows that which, to your point, is why she is having none of it.

Then I suppose Peggy, whoever that is, should disagree with her instead of talking about how she looks on the television.

[Robert J Sakimano]

the lead story at Fox News right now is about AOC.

[Robert J Sakimano]

She's still the lead story on Fox News.

[Dr. Strangelove]

To be fair Bob when a sitting US Congresscritter issues a 21st Communist Manifesto it should be the lead. Followed by Virginia politics and Jeff Bezos' dick pics

I would argue that a racist, bigoted christian sexual predator president threatening unrest and war if mean Democrats perform their constitional oversight is more important..

But.. she's brown, a female, bright and independent - and that doesn't sit well with the media elite.

America is a stupid country.

[Tim Wakefield]

She's gonna win in a landslide

[Dr. Strangelove]

As more and more mainstream Dems sign off on her Green New Deal I'm getting the feeling that she is working for GEOTUS.

The two stories at Fox News are now about AOC.

[steveschneider]

She’s bringing enthusiasm to taking aggressive action against climate change and is speaking out on how our government is beholden to corporate power through our fucked up campaign finance laws. Keep up the good work AOC!

yep - the elites are terrified of her.

on a positive note, I'm sure the mean evil grandmother with the email account is enjoying her time out of the mainstream media spotlight..

I’ve been reading some scary shit on climate change. I can’t believe more people aren’t making calls for action. We don’t have much time and we are going to be up shits Creek without a paddle before too long. Thank you AOC for calling out this insanity.
