OK, people – a short post FOR REAL this time (the available material always overwhelms my intentions to do a short post).
Before we get to the Facebooky stuff, I guess by now, everyone’s seen this :
So help me, this was all I could see instead:
Eeew.
.
OK – I’ve been seeing a lot of stuff like this in my Facebook news feed :
(A person named David, on the subject of Alexandria Cortez) :
“Anyone the Republicans are trying so hard to destroy has got to scare them…badly. I follow her on IG, and she’s doing a lot of things right.”
My friend Diane, whose page the above was posted on :
“She was not the only person questioning Cohen. Also, she doesn’t scare me. I’m just sick of her already.
I dislike the obsessive fawning over a person who has, realistically, done precious little so far besides tweet. I also distrust her whole “(IN)Justice (not) Democrats” shtick. She could do a lot more good by attacking some Republicans instead of going after Dems like Hakeem Jeffries.
All of this is beside the point anyway. I am allowed to dislike her, particularly on my own page.
I would rather see more coverage of other new Congresswomen, like Ayanna Pressley, Lucy McBath or Sharice Davids. I keep trying to share stories about them, but the media only wants to yap about this one.”
Then David posted this :
“Anyone the Republicans are trying so hard to destroy has got to scare them…badly. “
David seems to miss the difference between scaring the GOP base and turning them out.
So, quoth I :
They’re not scared. They’re happy to use her as an example of left-wing extremism.
They love her.
David replied :
“Which is exactly why the Republican party is so morally bankrupt and sick in its core…”
Trying to move the goalposts on me doesn’t really work all that well.
I replied :
And that has nothing to do with my point. AOL is their boogeyman made flesh, and they’ll happily use her to motivate their base.
What you think about her is irrelevant to the case you made
(that the GOP is afraid of her), and that I debunked.
Show my work? OK.From Free Republic:

Meet the Greatest GOP Salesperson in History
GATEWAY PUNDIT ^ | 3/1/2019 | Wayne Allyn RootPosted on 3/1/2019, 5:59:46 PM by bitt
I want to celebrate the greatest GOP salesperson in history: Alexandria Ocasio Cortez (aka AOC).
With enemies like AOC, who needs friends? No friend of mine, or friend of the GOP could ever do for Republicans what Ocasio-Cortez is doing on a daily basis.
The more AOC and her communist cabal talks about killing farting cows; trains that fly across oceans; ending all cars, trucks, boats and planes; knocking down all homes and buildings; free housing for all provided by Big Brother; guaranteed income whether you feel like working, or not; abortion in every pot (even after the baby is born alive); and let’s not forget her love for socialist hellholes like Venezuela and hatred for Israel…add these up and it spells…
Trump landslide in 2020.

Yahoo News is portraying AOC as the “New GOP Boogeywoman” – they actually seem to think the Republicans are afraid and worried about her and her influence

I agree with Mr. Root; AOC is a fantastic salesperson for conservatives. She needs to talk a lot more and explain in excruciating detail all the parts of her ‘death to America’ plan. Please, AOC, keep talking.

Yeah – they really sound terrified.
That’s it for this week (you can read this past Thursday’s mini-Obsession here) .
Feel free to roast me for failing to worship at the feet of Alexandria in the comments.
