Nothing new here, or anything of substance for that matter, just more left baiting. 

Every post here is posted to get a response from someone.  That is why it's called a discussion  group.

I. Suggest you use the report button if you think something is a violation of the TOS we have highly paid mods that have spent years studying the TOS. .

 

Best not to use deragatory words to accuse posters of something they did not do. That is a TOS/ Parole violation 

Now welcome back and let's have fun

I would support AOC being given a pass to stand in 2020.

Few freshman members of Congress cause as much of a stir as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has. Articles about her are consistently the best-performing on right-wing news sites. The charismatic 29-year-old Bronx native has seriously ruffled the feathers of conservatives, unused to debating a Democrat with a genuinely progressive agenda. Her proposals include Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, free state college tuition, a 70 percent income tax on the wealthiest Americans and federal legalization of marijuana.

AOC couldn't debate her own proposals, conservatives would be queuing up to take her apart, even members of her own party would take her down in a debate.

Are we talking Venezuela socialist or Nordic countries "socialist"? I have to admit that since we gave up our Verizon TV thing I'm a bit rusty on politics. 

I think something in the middle.  It really seems to be an embrace of the DSA mantra which is a lot closer to the pure socialist/communist side of things particular with them advocating the takeover and control of capital.

Genuinely progressive agenda?

No doubt, how do you debate someone that doesn't ground themselves in reality.

[Voice of Reason 10,298]

Well, she is making waves on the shutdown front.  Look at her go!

I ask myself that question all the time. The fox news demographic aren't known for their exceptional reasoning skills, that's for sure.

Aha okay. Yeah, I am all for adding a pinch of the Nordic model to the US but Bernie and Cortez are going a little bit too far.
