The Senate crushed the Green New Deal on Tuesday with a 0-57 vote against the resolution, with three Democrats and one Independent voting “no” and 43 Democrats voting “present.” Democrats tried to spin the resolution’s failure into a win for the radical proposal, including Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), who introduced it last month and took credit for Democrats not voting in favor of the measure. (Snip)Ocasio-Cortez took to Twitter to respond to Sen. John Barrasso (R-WY), chairman of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, who tweeted: “Why did Senate Democrats just duck a vote on your #GreenNewDeal?”

San Fran Nan and Upchuck are probably seeing this gal as they would an annoying little sister. I´m sure they´re already searching for somebody to primary her out of office.

Yeah, the Demon-Rats are masters of "1984" style double-speak!!!!
Good is bad. A loss is a win. Evil is good. Abnormal is normal. Filth is clean. The list goes on and on!!!!!
I am guessing that a lot of Demon-Rats are secretly praying to their socialist gods that AOC tries to push the Hilldebeast around. Her immediate and "unexpected" suicide would make all of their lives a lot easier...

So, we need to do all these things to save the planet and the best way to accomplish that is to vote AGAINST this bill ????
Senators now take orders from a dimwit representative from a borough in Queens. Gotcha !!!
Her constituents may be this dumb but I assure you that I am not.

Presently, the only viable energy sources that will keep America the #1 country in the world and feed, house, clothe, and transport billions of people worldwide are gas, coal, and nuclear.

#6, which is why the demoncrats are against them, as they don´t care about ´the planet´ but only power and destroying this Republic.

AOC is a very good example of why anyone running for Congress ought to be older than she is and have a substantive employment history . This clown has absolutely no business being in Congress.

I´m reminded of "PeeWee´s Big Adventure" where PeeWee hotdogs on his bike and wipes out in lurid fashion. He gets up, dusts himself off and announces to the group of kids watching his jackassery "I meant to do that".

I agree with #9. It describes her perfectly. She was put in that Seat by George Soros and his money. She will run her BIG mouth every chance she gets until someone in her own Party who wants to run THEIR mouth, takes her down. She will be lucky to make it to the end of her term. As for re-election, I wouldn´t bet a dime on it for her! She is the perfect example of WHY we shouldn´t let 16 year olds vote. Even some folks, who are out of college, are still to dumb to know what the world is all about, even they THINK they know Everything!

This airhead leftist idiot, a failed barmaid, thinks she really is in charge.
She really needs a comeuppance, which will be to dump her out of Congress in 2020.

Voting present is opposite of yes. ...it means they don’t like the phony green liberal deal, but don’t have The guts to vote yes or no.

I don´t think adding 10 years or so to her age will make any difference for AOC. My Golden Retriever has more sense and he is just seven.

OK, Here´s how it happened:
Remember that 0bama called the entire ´freshman class´ into his lair for a strategy meeting last week? Well, he (Valerie Jarrett) decided that the Democraps in the Senate should vote the way he always did in things that might have uncomfortable consequences: "Present".
He (or she; V.J.) wrote a note to Schumer telling him to set it up that way, and AOC was told to deliver it.
Therefore she thinks that she told them to do it, because she was the messenger girl.

AOC has done the here-to-fore impossible: Make Nancy Pelosi look intelligent and reasonable. Compared to AOC, Pelosi is a rocket scientist by day and a brain surgeon by night.

The Democrats bodies were present, their brains, on the other hand, have never been present. The Senate needs to change the rules so that each member MUST vote YES or NO. Voting present is just a cop out.

This woman is a bulgy-eyed zit who needs to be squeezed and then wiped off the earth for good.
I can´t stand to hear that voice, look at what a puke fest she is on a daily basis, or even think about the fact that anyone continues to take her seriously. What an abomination.

Does she and the fawning media really think that by constantly showing us pictures of Occasionally-Cognizant with her mouth really, really wide open and the buck teeth showing, we´ll somehow come to see her awesome beauty and brains?

Sure you did, chica. Reminds me of the look my cats give me when they do something stupid like fall off the back of the couch—‘I did that on purpose’. Uh huh, sure you did! Doh! This girl is really something...

I´m doing better at keeping my criticisms of others under control, and in that light, despite what #28 stated so accurately, I think she´s HOT! A clown show, for sure, but a HOT one.

I cannot bear to look at her anymore.
Last time Nancy appeared on the news she looked like death warmed over. Sure Chica is taking over. Got a feeling it doesn´t sit well with long timers and sooner or later-.
