What do Democrats see in Ocasio-Cortez?

[Ronald]

The news media loves and so do a lot of Democrats. But why? She recently cost NY $24.5 billion in tax revenue and 143,000 jobs over 10 years as her and others got Amazon to scuttle plans for HQ2 in Long Island City.

Her Green Deal is a joke that would cost $53-93 trillion over 10 years.

She's basically a 15 watt bulb in a socket that requires 100 watts.

Why is the news media making such a big deal over her? I don't get it.

She is radical, a revolutionary. They want a civil war and need young people like her at the helm. They are targeting the poor, the uninformed and illegals as well with free stuff like college. They target the sick with free healthcare. And who will pay for it? The rich, whom 10% or the population pay 75% of the taxes already. These Democrats know that they can't possibly afford to deliver on their promises, they just want their votes and illegal ones, whatever works. They play the race card too when they can't argue any other way. " Oh you don't want Islamic refugees? You are a racist, an Islamophobe, mean and evil." "Oh, you want to build a wall ... you're a racist!" They don't see or want to see the calamities occurring in Europe. And their push towards Socialism is blind as well. Ask them how Greece is doing or worse Venezuela, examples of socialism that doesn't work and they don't have a clue or are in denial. As if the USSR or China proved successful.
The bottom line is they hate America and our history and paint it as if God cursed it not blessed it. They hate the Constitution, Capitalism and Christianity in many cases. So where we headed when they eventually wear us down, increase in numbers? First, they must destroy our sovereignty and the sovereignty of all nations, then they can impose a New World Order.
Globalism. God will intervene when that happens - hopefully before!

 

[Ronald]

... And guess what? Obama just gave a speech the other day warning the Democrats that their numbers must add up, be realistic. For once I can say, thank you Obama for giving them a reality check.

Maybe she's preparing herself for the switch over to solar?

Here ya go:
Prosecutors dismiss charges against Smollett, draw backlash

Sorry, but no matter how many times you reference Smollett it is not evidence for your claim that hate crime laws are "used and abused" to gain "preferential treatment"

Unless you have some weird notion that hate crime laws led to the prosecution dropping the charges. If you think that, I'd love to see your logic.

Lots of speculation about her involvement in the case but no evidence whatsoever.

I guess you're not aware of how brightly a 5-watt bulb shines in a 40-watt fixture. Or how much longer it will last. Or how much cheaper it is in the long run.

My Dad and mom were liberals too - nice loving people who get behind a movement/ current that in the surface seems right. They never see the underlying current, the force the propels this monster towards its ultimate goals, socialism, globalism.
It is likened to becoming an atheist because the TOE sounds like it's science and so now they have more juice to rebel against and or attack Christianity. But there is something underneath this current that your boat is floating in, an evil force directing it that they don't see or conceive to be real, Satan.
Satan will ultimately bring together his ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT. He will gather nations together to attack God's people, Christians and Jews. But it will only last 3 1/2 years. Then Jesus will return and destroy sin and evil and all those who were deceived by him.
Some extrapolation from AOC to the end of the world aye?

So really, "they" aren't actually evil so much as not as smart as you are?

Wait...not only are "we/they" evil/not evil, just not as smart as you but we're also on a boat?

Or, you're wrong? Like every single other person who's predicted, with great confidence I might add, that they know exactly what God thinks and is going to do in the future?

Some extrapolation from AOC to the end of the world aye?

It's ok, I'm used to people bringing in the end of the world, one world government and evolution all to explain why they're right and everyone else is wrong. Also how people should support capitalism and rich people.

Sorry, but no matter how much of the evidence you want to dismiss, it's still there and it's a fact that Smollett used and abused the system, tried to gain preferential treatment, and is now being recognized for it. So much so that even Chicago's democrat mayor is outraged about it.

 

[Aldebaran]

Are you saying OAC is cheap?

 

[Ronald]

So really, "they" aren't actually evil so much as not as smart as you are?

It's not as much to do with intelligence. Maybe morality, wisdom ... we get that from God. However, if you are blind then you'll have a different world view. What baffles me is how a Liberal can claim to be a Christian and support gay marriage, partial birth abortion or even infanticide after the baby is out? This goes along with gay clergy, women in clergy, and on and on. I think liberals push away from God's standard of what is right and wrong, good and evil. It is as if they are living in an alternate reality. Not being able to say the words "Islamic terrorism" and trashing the history of our nation as if God cursed it not blessed it. And then we have this problem of immigration. We need to have borders, NOT let everyone or anyone in. You have no borders, there goes your culture (and that's another things, multiculturalism).

Wait...not only are "we/they" evil/not evil, just not as smart as you but we're also on a boat?

If baffles me how you can be "in Christ" supposedly on the same boat, yet supporting things in opposition to what the Bible says ... unless you just believe partially and not fully. I think liberals tend to pick and choose the scriptures that agree with their lifestyles and discard the rest!

Or, you're wrong? Like every single other person who's predicted, with great confidence I might add, that they know exactly what God thinks and is going to do in the future?

I don't predict, the Bible does however. You can distort it, misinterpret it, ignore the prophecies, spiritualize them or just say they've been already fulfilled -- but they are there!

It's ok, I'm used to people bringing in the end of the world, one world government and evolution all to explain why they're right and everyone else is wrong. Also how people should support capitalism and rich people.
tulc(is going to get some more coffee now)

Oh, you have a beef about rich people, guess you aren't. There is somewhat of an imbalance or wealth. There have always been rich and poor but when we had the gold standard, incomes, prosperity rose across the board. I think that's really the problem.

that is almost word for word the stock answer of everyone who's made a prediction about the end times and shown to be utterly wrong. Do you all have a web site somewhere that has a formula answer when people point out no one has ever gotten it right in 2000+ years of making wrong predictions?

uhmmm...you were the one who brought up rich people and capitalism, not me.
tulc(thought that should be pointed out)

 

[Ronald]

There is that mystery of prophecy. It comes to us from the heavenly realm, outside of our time domain. Revelation is difficult ... there are a half dozen views, we pick one or go off on our own slant and make the claim. It is a blessing, we get excitement about His return, about Him fixing this fallen world ... or do you prefer it's present condition. We had the greatest country, richest and most generous. We fought wars for good causes and got involved with others when we thought it was for the better, yet man cannot create world peace, solve world hunger, eliminate diseases ... he just doesn't get along. Why, because of sin.
Don't you look forward to a time when God intervenes and fixes this world and eliminates evil? Isn't that something to get excited about? Revelation is blessing when it is read and studied. But as they say, no one knows the day when all this will happen. But you _ think that it won't? I suppose we will all learn to get along once your liberal move arrives? Globalism.

All this in defence of a President who has
*******************************************
- shut the federal government down for 35 days, all in the name of forcing Congress to finance the "WALL," that he had assured the nation Mexico would pay for
- takes the word of Russia's Putin over that of Americas intelligence agencies concerning Russian interference in the 2016 Presidential Election
- attempting to subvert the constitutional role of Congress by arbitrarily declaring a "national emergency" to redirect funds, earmarked for the military, to build a "WALL"
- attempt to have the Courts declare Obamacare "unconstitutional" without any thought given to providing a replacement, leaving millions of Americans without healthcare insurance
- lying to the American public concerning the payment of "hush money" to buy the silence of a porn star and a Playboy centrefold just weeks before he 2016 Election

Given the results of the 2018 Interims, conservatives are desperately searching for someone/something to "demonize," to redirect attention away from their own dismal record of achievements!

sure do, that's why I find the things people who "look for signs" seem so interested in finding so...pointless. And a distraction, from what are the important parts of the Gospel.

Revelation is blessing when it is read and studied.

Maybe, I find most of it uninteresting.

But as they say, no one knows the day when all this will happen.

I suspect not only do they have no idea "when" I'm also pretty sure they have the "what's going to happen" portions wrong as well.

But you _ think that it won't?

what I think is God has that part under control, my part isn't to worry about what He is in control of. My part is to love my neighbor and help those (who ever they are) who are in need. I find that part more difficult.

I suppose we will all learn to get along once your liberal move arrives?

What I suppose is we wont all "get along" until we can move past worrying about "liberal and conservative".

Globalism.

Yep, my point exactly, people worry about that nonsense while the real problem is our not taking care of the people around us as much as we can.

The truth will eventually come out who arranged for him to receive his "skate on justice" card, it always does.

....by claiming to be the victim of a hate crime. Twice, actually. Claiming to have been attacked for being black, and for being gay.

Something that he's trying to exacerbate, and his handlers bailed him out when he got caught lying.
