Alex from da Bronx upset that Mitch McConnell took her empty-headed plan seriously

Can you guess which one is the happy socialist?
Socialist Rep. Alexandria Obviously-Comatose (D-NY) is angry at Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell because after she proposed her ridiculous $93 trillion Green New Deal, he decided to allow a vote on it next week. Having a modicum of self-awareness of her doltish proposal, she knew it would be looked at as a feeble attempt at sounding intelligent, so she took to Twitter and said that McConnell was "wasting votes" and that his plan was "a disgrace."

But it isn't wasting votes because voting on the GND would show the American public just where their representatives stood on socialism, cow farts, the abolishment of all carbon emissions including autos and planes, to support a program designed to bankrupt the country and make her "the boss."

Ocasio-Cortez's ire was sparked by a report in The Washington Post that noted that Republicans are elevating the crazy fringe, far-left-wing of the Democratic Party — which includes her — to see which 2020 Democratic presidential candidates are crazy enough to align with their agenda.

The Post notes that that effort begins next week with a "midweek vote on the Green New Deal" to see which Democrats support the plan, which is the aforementioned massive government takeover of private industries.

"The GOP’s whole game of wasting votes in Congress to target others 'on the record', for leg they have no intent to pass, is a disgrace," Ocasio-Cortez tweeted. "Stop wasting the American peoples’ time + learn to govern. Our jobs aren’t for campaigning, & that’s exactly what these bluff-votes are for."

So why then did she propose it if she didn't want the GOP to take her seriously?

"I've noted with great interest the Green New Deal," McConnell said last month. "And we're going to be voting on that in the Senate. Give everybody an opportunity to go on record and see how they feel about the Green New Deal."

Now that's a good one.

Democratic Sen. Ed Markey, who introduced the laughable Green New Deal with the freshman socialist AOC, inexplicably claimed last month that McConnell allowing a vote on the bill was his way of secretly "sabotaging" it.

So voting on their proposal would sabotage their proposal--makes perfect sense if you happen to be a flaming contrarian.

"Don’t let Mitch McConnell fool you: this is nothing but an attempt to sabotage the movement we are building," Markey tweeted. "He wants to silence your voice so Republicans don’t have to explain why they are climate change deniers. McConnell wants this to be the end, this is just the beginning."

Republicans, for the most part, are not climate change deniers. We understand that there is likely some truth to the change in climate. But when idiots like Markey and Comatose tell us we've got a dozen years to do something or die, that sounds like something Beto O'Rourke might tell his wife is a green avocado.

"This isn't a new Republican trick," Markey continued. "By rushing a vote on the #GreenNewDeal resolution, Republicans want to avoid a true national debate & kill our efforts to organize. We’re having the first national conversation on climate change in a decade. We can’t let Republicans sabotage it."

Sorry, you can't have it both ways, Markey. You and your idiot child put the deal together as an actual proposal, and maybe you didn't read it yourself, but voting on it is the best way to consider its merits.

Earlier this month, even the very liberal AFL-CIO, America’s largest organized-labor group, slammed Comatose's plan in a letter, saying that it could "cause immediate harm to millions of our members and their families." They were considering to recommend that AOC stick to bartending and get out of politics.

"We welcome the call for labor rights and dialogue with labor, but the Green New Deal resolution is far too short on specific solutions that speak to the jobs of our members and the critical sections of our economy," the letter from the AFL-CIO Energy Committee stated. "It is not rooted in an engineering-based approach and makes promises that are not achievable or realistic."

In fact, they're absolutely schizophrenic in a socialist kind of way.

"We will not accept proposals that could cause immediate harm to millions of our members and their families," the letter continued. "We will not stand by and allow threats to our members’ jobs and their families’ standard of living go unanswered."

So AOC was even able to piss off America's largest organized labor organization.

But she's cute and can dance.
