“Every day she self-immolates by treating American politics like a barmaid. It’s high time she went back behind that bar and leave the politics for those will the intellectual wherewithal to take it seriously.”

And it’s really saying something when she can’t even meet that bar, when we have the likes of Hank “Tip” Johnson and Shelia Jackson Lee there.

I wager it takes a *long* time before windmills pay for themselves.

They never do. Expensive to build, install AND maintain.

The Swedish individual income tax rate is in that range and it starts at a very low level.

They have two brackets 30% and 60% plus 30% SS/Med.

Yep, her teenage girl speech pattern is annoying.

A 28 year old airhead; she fits the socialist dems perfectly as their new "face".

Boy, she really spells out the many many ways she wants to take OUR money from us...

So that SHE can have it to buy votes with.

“it’s like you know like” is considered persuasive language in the world of millennials.

She is a babbling idiot regurgitating the lies of her Marxist professors.

What’s wrong with that?

Dear Miss 28 year old bartender who lived with Mommy until she was 26, please tell me what is your fair share of what I have worked for and earned?

You are 100% correct. there are hundreds of thousands, if not millions of American, Latinos & Hispanics that love America, USA, & Donald J. Trump. Remember the Hispanic/Latino impact in the USA is very long & massive, in our history. Puerto Ricans, Mexicans, Cubans have long been a lasting fabric of the American nation as loyal, devoted, “Citizens”!!!

How? How? How is this possible?


(from her Wiki page) “She graduated fourth in forth in her class from Boston University’s College of Arts and Sciences in 2011 with a bachelor’s degree in economics and international relations.”


How is this possible?

There was a time when all immigrants (and they were legal) clamored to become Americans in their new, purposely chosen home. No one minded if they remained proud of their heritage, whether that was Irish, English, Polish, Greek, Spanish, Mexican, Chinese, Indian (either dot or feather), etc. But it was understood that their identity as Americans had to be the first priority.

The left’s decision to use identity politics as a vote-getter changed that forever, I’m afraid, and now all those who want something for nothing find their “identity” as “victims” somehow of the white Anglo majority males (who did after all found this nation, and they founded a good, an exceptional nation) useful.

Words of caution for followers of air-brain Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez:

Be careful when you follow the masses, sometimes the m is silent.

I’m sure he was told to ask that, and that the commie was supposed to be able to hit it out of the park.

“One of the things that we saw is, if people pay their fair share,” she said, “if corporations and the ultra-wealthy — for example, as Warren Buffett likes to say, if he paid as much as his secretary pays, 15 percent — if he paid a 15 percent tax rate; if corporations paid — if we reverse the tax bill, but raised our corporate tax rate to 28 percent, which is not even as high as it was before, if we do those two things and also close some of those loopholes, that’s $2 trillion right there.”


“pay their fair share” = Leftist speak for “wealth redistribution”.

Well, then it was a swing and a miss. If you’ve got a moment, take a look at my post #22.
