What is the racist wingnut obsession with a 1 term congresswoman?


"It’s wild to me how people crawled over my 60 mins interview with a fine-toothed comb to find any word or reason to claim I’m unfit for the job, yet here Kevin McCarthy (the GOP Leader!) is a bumbling, sloppy, dishonest mess & his mediocrity is accepted as a matter of course," Ocasio-Cortez said on Twitter after CBS's "60 Minutes" aired an interview from its sit-down with McCarthy.

I am sure that's what enrages some of the people here who haven't seen their own penis this century, obesity and abstinence exacerbated by posting almost 24/7 with stubby fingers staring at a spittle covered monitor.

With rare exception for the most powerful, a bill can't get to the floor for anyone without going thru a committee, sometimes 2 or more, and getting approved by them.

New members are hazed somewhat to defer, but some do get bills to floor and pass them in first term. Often of modest importance and controversy, more occasionally.

It doesn't help that the janitorial staff sweeps it up before anyone can see it.

It is the floor you know.

Default Why hasn't AOC put a bill on the House floor for a vote yet?

Because the power went out in NY again and she's trapped on an escalator.
