Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Right right right!

I completely forgot that facts don’t matter in her brave new world!
It's pretty amazing. I love calling that a Cheney-esque statement, mostly because it is but also because it makes progressives go nuts when you compare something AOC said to Cheney.

The amazing thing with Cheney is that it did not matter what occurred - the decision he took was still right. No WMD, weren't welcomed as liberators, AQI/ISIS came into Iraq, emboldened Iran and gave them more power in the region...it didn't matter if all the given justifications for the war turned out to be false premises or if there were unintended consequences. To him the decision to invade was still the right one, no matter what.

That may be the only similarity between the two. Though AOC would hardly appreciate it. But an interesting take to be sure.
 
$93K for working 100 hours a week in NYC is slave wages. Actually working a 100 hours a week anywhere is a crime.
My wife and I did just that every year for a 6 week period during our busy season for a few years. Maybe we can sue each other.
