Too bad Ocasio-Cortez is refusing to debate so far -- if she did, I think it would be a VERY interesting debate!


P.S. For those who haven't kept up with all the latest acronyms, here is what LGTBQIA+ means:

L - Lesbian. Lesbian is a term used to refer to homosexual females.

B - Bisexual. Bisexual is when a person is attracted to two sexes/genders.
T - Trans. Trans is an umbrella term for transgender and transsexual people.
Q - *****/Questioning. ***** is an umbrella term for all of those who are not heterosexual and/or cisgender*. Questioning is when a person isn't 100% sure of their sexual orientation and/or gender, and are trying to find their true identity.
I - Intersex. Intersex is when a person has an indeterminate mix of primary and secondary sex characteristics.
A - Asexuality. Asexuality is when a person experiences no (or little, if referring to demisexuality or grey-asexuality) sexual attraction to people.
+ - The "+" symbol simply stands for all of the other sexualities, sexes, and genders that aren't included in these few letters.

*Cisgender definition: Denoting or relating to a person whose sense of personal identity and gender corresponds with their birth sex.

Your thread title is a crackup. I'm glad I wasn't sipping coffee or a diet soda when I read it.

During the last race for Governor here in Texas, the nominee for the Democrat party was Wendy Davis.

One of the monikers affixed to her by opponents was 'Abortion Barbie'.

Looks like the Conservative talking heads are looking for a new "Hillary" or "Pelosi" to discuss 7x24. Gotta throw some red meat to the base and Hillary and Pelosi are now beef jerky.

yawn. 100K donation....to a charity. So they get to write it off on their taxes. Their offer is not compelling.

For a second there, I thought you were talking about Sarah Palin, AKA Caribou Barbie.

[pknopp]

Do we now need to shoot down this person, whoever it is and for whatever reason they believe they are more important than millions of others like we did Shapiro?

[katzpaw]

This is as silly as DEMANDING that Mitch McConnell debate Josh Marshall from TPM or Rafael Rivero from OccupyDemocrats... and getting upset when he doesn't.

[gladhands]

Even Tammy Lauren is sick of this nonsense

The Republicans feel genuinely threatened by this woman and want to try and torpedo her early.

They are skeeered....
