Greeting

The following consists of rants, ramblings, and general opinions on multiple topics of this one veteran. These will range from politics to morons who inhabit this planet. If you are easily offended by someone who has a strong opinion and uses very blunt language then move on. Not to say I am vulgar, just brutally honest. And I have, from time to time, been known to slide in a "colorful" word or two. I am NOT a racist or sexist so if that is what you hope to see you may also move on. Everyone else; prepare yourself for what may be, once in a while, a very interesting ride. Cheers!

The Ongoing Stupidity - and Lies - of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez


At one point this nation was solid. People helped each other and stood up for what was right. The military and law enforcement was respected and we stood for the flag, the Pledge of Allegiance and the National Anthem. Now we have people taking knees, cussing the military, abusing and killing cops (because of the uniforms they wear) and attacking children over a baseball cap. I have heard many people question how our nation has gotten here. The answer is simple. A lack of “factual” education, people who care more about themselves than the country and choosing to blindly following people like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
The danger in following her is the fact she is an idiot. This has been pointed out many, many times. She has made ridiculous statements and claims on various news outlets, during her campaign, and since being elected. She has no idea what she is doing or what she is talking about yet there are those who think she is the up and coming savior of our nation.

She has stated that “We need to invent technology that has never been invented before”. Well no kidding. There is no need to invent something that has already been invented. She is touting her “Green New Deal” oblivious to the trillions of dollars it would cost. And when asked, repeatedly, how this would be paid for she dodges the question. Why? She has no answer. There is NO WAY to pay for this without bankrupting the American people. You know, those people she claims to represent. She is a Socialist who has been blinded herself by the Socialistic rhetoric. And she is so stupid she actually thinks it will work.

Now, I have called her stupid before only to have someone point out that she has a degree in Economics. To this I say, big deal. It means nothing if she never learned anything. There is an old joke that goes, “What do you call the person who graduates Medical School with a D average? Doctor.” Just because you went to college does NOT make you a smart person. And in some instances it does even make you educated if you didn't learn anything....like her. She obviously missed a lot of classes and failed a lot of tests.

I guess there is a small possibility that she learned these stupid, and dangerously wrong, socialistic ideals in college but the idea that this is the case if far more frightening than her idiotic babblings. After all there are colleges and universities teaching the youth of today misguided concepts and Liberal re-written history. The “History” today's youth say they learned in college doesn't resemble the history we learned in my day, both in college and in high school. In fact, someone who graduated high school with me knows more about factual American History than today's college student. But that is a topic for another rant. Back to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez...aka – AOC.

It seems she isn't just a stupid Socialist but she is also a liar. Shocking, I know. I have held that the only person (people) more stupid than her are those that voted for her. Now there is proof. Turns out she doesn't even live in the district she represents. In fact, no one knows where she does live, other than her upscale apartment in D.C. From the New York Post ....

She may be America’s most famous freshman congresswoman, but in New York, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a virtual ghost.
She has no district office and no local phone number, unlike the state’s three other freshman members.
And it’s unclear whether the 29-year-old lawmaker, who represents the Bronx and Queens, actually still lives in the Parkchester neighborhood that has been so closely tied to her rise — even though she won her upset victory over fellow Democrat Rep. Joe Crowley with accusations that his home in Virginia made him too Washington-focused to serve his district.
Ocasio-Cortez has used her deceased father’s Bronx condo on her voter registration since 2012, and even posed in the one-bedroom Bronx flat for celebrity photographer Annie Leibovitz in a Vogue magazine profile after her stunning November election. But The Post could find little indication she continues to live there.
The Post e-mailed the Ocasio-Cortez’ spokesman, Corbin Trent, four times with specific questions — they were all ignored. On Saturday, The Post reached Corbin by phone.
'We will not be commenting,' he said. Among the queries he refused to answer: Where does the congresswoman live?”
So she won't/can't answer how to pay for her Socialistic ideas and now she won't even answer the question about where she lives. It damn sure didn't take her long to fit right in with the Democratic party policy of “deflect, divert, avoid”.
Folks, I encourage you to do independent research. I beg you to do research. And don't just look for your answers at places like Mother Jones. Look to CNN, FOX and The Wall Street Journal. Look at what comes from the BBC and the AP. Turn off MSNBC and turn on CSPAN so you can actually watch what happens on Capitol Hill. Find a History book from 30 years ago or longer – before Liberals started rewriting History to fit their agenda – and study the facts. In so doing you will see that the Left is lying to you about so many things and that Socialism DOES NOT WORK. It never has and it never will.
And when it comes to AOC remember, before she was the new Liberal poster child she was a bartender. She took her Economics degree and became a bartender. My guess is she was a lousy bartender as well. I have a feeling she was one of those, when asked what kind of bourbon they had she started off with, “We have Crown Royal, Jack Daniels....”. For those who missed the reference here, Crown and Jack Daniels are not bourbons.
So now this former bartender who couldn't get a job in her field now expects us to believe she is an expert on Economics, World Affairs and Science. Seriously, why would ANYONE believe her her follow her? How stupid would that make you?
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has no idea what she is talking about or what she is doing. She and her ideals are extremely dangerous to the United States, the American people and our way of life. Those who think like her – and her mentor, Bernie Sanders – and continue to blindly follow them are the ones who are destroying this country from the inside.
Now you know how we got to this point. Uninformed, under informed, uneducated and just plain lazy, stupid people supporting politicians who have no idea what they are talking about and believe our Constitution is either outdated or doesn't apply to them. And if you are among those who support AOC, Bernie and Socialistic ideals then congratulate yourself. YOU are the problem and YOU are causing the destruction of this nation. Wake Up America!
That is all....carry on.
