    I'm in my usual, Monday morning, fact-check mode.

    When Trump tweeted AOC and the Green New Deal proposed "to permanently eliminate all Planes, Cars, Cows, Oil, Gas & the Military" he was clearly in his Make-Shit-Up mode.
    Most unfortunate is that many believe his tweets.

    No such proposals have been made.

    AOC's Green New Deal is obviously excessively ambitious.
    It's taking existing societal trends too far.
    Most everything in it is simply a re-presentation of extant environmental and energy initiatives already under way.



    You’ve obviously ignored the original proposal which was released and then quickly scrubbed from the internet after people pointed out how excessively stupid it was. The original claimed they wanted a high speed rail system that would make air travel obsolete. Net 0 green house emissions, she actually commented on “cow farts”, etc. it was in the original FAQ on her own website, just like a living wage for those “unwilling to work” was in the original release of the New Green Deal. Don’t forget that it also mentioned rebuilding every building in the country.

    And no, I’m not talking about the couple of silly, mocking proposals released by Mark Dice or the other fella.

    I'm just wondering why adjectives like Socialist, communist, calling her dumb, daft and a whore come into the discussion.

    Words like socialist and communist are being thrown around because 1. She’s a card carrying member of the Democratic Socialists of America, 2. She espouses 100% socialist ideas, 3. The plan she put together could only be accomplished by a fully socialist, and likely communist system.

    She’s called dumb and daft because she says incredibly dumb things.


    She wasn’t called a whore. You have a description of what sounds like the slutty girl from high school. The dumb ditzy chick who spread it around and climbed the social ladder one pecker at a time. Someone commented that your description of her was reminiscent of the class whore, they didn’t call Cortez a whore. If anything, you described her as such.


    Don’t worry, I’ve got my fact checking hat on too. May have to pick up a spare.

    Hhhmmm, cow farts eh?

    What about human farts, deer, elephants, elk, moose, walrus, rabbits, frogs, hell fish, and oh my god don't light a match or we're all doomed......

    Yeah, logic is not a strong point with these rubes. Wanting to ban plant food and all. It’s not like we gotta feed people or anything.

    Dammit! Younggun beat me to it! There are still copies of AOC's original proposal if you can find it (they tried to bury it). That was the one Tucker Carlson eluded to when talking to her adviser. Her people later tried to say it was republicans that wrote that original and tried to pass it off as theirs, when it obvious it came from her office.

    Some folks would not know a fact if it jumped up and bit them on the backside.

    Our survival rates for cancer are at the top, same with other terrible diseases compared to other countries. We have shorter waits and better treatments. We develop more new treatments and advancements than any other nation. But damn, we die younger so it must be the fault of the healthcare system and not gluttony or insane murder rates in cities like Chicago. Just close your eyes to the details, it’s the fault of our healthcare system.

    Isn't that like saying GUNS are the cause of so many homicides, not the shooter???


    Young read the above quote and substitute guns for healthcare and the population for shooters and see if it makes more sense.

    The original archived faq in which she laments that they may no be able to “fully get rid of farting cows”.

    Younggun,

    Yikes, that kind of very brief training will get people killed...

    They do a lot of it in places where depths don't exceed 30 feet, like the reefs in Hawaii and Bahamas. It's why they go with instructors. They usually just ram an octopus in their mouth and escort them up or, worse case scenario, they inflate their BC and launch em to the surface.

    They are called resort courses.
