Democratic Candidate Faces Questions Over Her ‘Working Class’ Bronx Background

[Bud Plug]

Bud, it's the sort of useless piece of shit college degree that kids take if they're really interested in the subject matter and aren't good in computer programming - whether they're rich or poor. Like my 3 oagre-nieces who worked part-time jobs to get their useless, impractical English Lit and Fine Arts degrees.

What next?.... You're going to appoint yourself Der Appropriate University Course Fuehrer and decree that it's not appropriate for a bright Latina kid from a working family to get a liberal arts education because she should "take something useful" while White Massa's kids go and take Latin Literature 101 at Harvard?

Now settle down and watch and listen to Ms Ocasio. As I said in a prior post, I'm not sure I'd give her anything to important to do for a while, But she's sure fun to listen to.

If your Oagre nieces wanted to waste their own money to get basket weaving degrees, I suppose they could at least learn the lesson that comes from wasting time and money. Did their parents kick in for that as well? If so, were they happy about it? Did they have to scrape their money together for those enriching learning experiences, or was it a drop in the bucket full of other indulgences?

As to your point about becoming the supreme commander of what people should study, I won't likely accept that post (having better things to do than parent other people's kids for them), but if you Liberals get your way and convince governments to provide free post secondary education to all, you can bet that someone will shortly form the opinion that funding gives the government the right to do exactly that, so careful what you wish for.

Ms. Ocasio has nothing new to say, nor a solution to any significant problem. But it sure is fun having a young girl around, isn't it!

As usual Promo will claim a victory without landing a blow. Did I ever hail Trump as anything other than an idle rich boy at that stage of his life? His education had nothing to do with running his real estate or other businesses. He learned what he needed to know from his father or by trial and error. Seems like you and Beaver actually want to agree with me on this point, because it smears Trump, but can't decide if its worth the points.

As to your daughter, she went on to take her CA (credit to her) and did something with her career. Not so Ms. Ocasio. Instead, she took took a job that doesn't even require a high school degree. Maybe her mentor harvested his crop too soon?

So the answer is ...... you were trolling AND you are out-of-touch.

lol, weak twist BP, but I guess you were caught by surprise. BTW, Trump Jr also has a useless Economics degree. All 3 top Trump executives, maybe that explains the mediocre performance of The Trump Organization?

Re: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. I dunno, looking at wiki description she's done allot with her life at age 28, her parents must be proud. Tell be again, what you do all day? Argue on a sex BB? Are your parents proud?

Do you really think I didn't know about Trump's education? Funny, because I've posted about it before. You have an odd trait of believing that you possess surprising information which is, in fact, publicly and widely known. You may never truly understand my differing positions in relation to Trump versus his presidency, since I've stated it so often and it continues to elude you. Or are you just trolling me?

The fact that you can't seem to distinguish the difference between someone who took their useless degree, but then built up a successful business, versus someone who took their useless degree and then took a job that a homeless person could do, and furthermore can't distill the meaninglessness of their degrees to that distinction between outcomes, is remarkable.

I've done a lot more with my life than Ms. Cortez (both by age 28 and now), and do a lot more each day than post on TERB occasionally, certainly a lot more useful things than researching Ms. Ocasio. Wisdom prevents me from providing the details. I'm sure you'd be glad to share the details of your day.

… a job that a homeless person could do …

How is having no home a measure of competence in any particular job? In the days when I hired day-labourers off the corner of Sherbourne and Queen I met more than one who could easily out-logic that sorta crap passing for thought.

You used to hire labourers off the corner of Sherbourne and Queen? How many of them had SIN numbers? Were they all paid under the table? How many people did you meet that had serious mental health and/or addiction issues? And yet they all probably could have worked as community organizers.

Exactly correct. I KNOW for fact you don't properly research before posting.

Below you state "certainly a lot more useful things than researching Ms. Ocasio", yet here you are pretending you know something about Ocasio-Cortez, yet you've never taken the time to learn any facts.
You claimed an Economics degree "IS a worthless degree". You were of-course wrong: http://www.slate.com/blogs/moneybox...lege_major_why_economics_grads_make_bank.html
You claimed an International Relations "Leads to a government or not for profit job". You of course had no idea of the real scope of that degree: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_relations

The fact that you can't seem to distinguish the difference between someone who took their useless degree, but then built up a successful business.

Who are you speaking of: "took their useless degree and built up a successful business"? Trump? An Economics degree is not a useless degree and Trump has not built up a successful business. Hey, Trump himself stated he was worth $11B during the 2016 primaries. In 2018 his business was evaluated to be with $2.4-$3.1B BEFORE debt and accounts payable. That a 70-80% reduction in value in 18 months. Trump is a PATHETIC businessman. His Brand, his only claim to fame, is worth 90% less today. Time to crack a bottle of Trump Vodka ..... oh, that company is out of business.

After reading many of your posts in the last few years, the one thing that really sticks out: You have a problem with women. The smarter, successful or more outspoken, the more aggressive your negative response.

Looking at Ocasio-Cortez's bio for the 6 years she's been out of school:
- established a publishing firm, Brook Avenue Press
- employed as an educator at the nonprofit National Hispanic Institute
- served as the Educational Director of the 2017 Northeast Collegiate World Series
- worked as an organizer for Bernie Sanders's 2016 presidential campaign
- had a small asteroid after her: 23238 Ocasio-Cortez.
- named the 2017 National Hispanic Institute Person of the Year

Butt Plug, do you have an asteroid named after you? Ever been named person of the year?

You stated " certainly a lot more useful things than researching Ms. Ocasio". So you admit you don't know anything about Ocasio-Cortez.

You stated "Wisdom prevents me from providing the details" ----- I'll correct that for you "Truth prevents me from providing the details"

Yesterday alone you had 16 posts, when do you have time for anything else? You live on an anonymous BB arguing BS with strangers all day old fella - very impressive life.

A lot of things you post are just silly, and you expend far too much effort for the quality of what you produce. I'd be a fool to spend the same time or more debunking it all. All that comes through is that you are anxious to dismiss views contrary to your own, mostly based on attributing motives, backgrounds, or "research" as the underlying cause. Sad. I have no idea how many posts you wrote yesterday, nor would I ever think it worthwhile to check. You just don't interest me that much. Your online persona reminds me of someone I went to university with. This person was intelligent enough. He was hard working enough. He was extremely opinionated. However, while he could research and put all of the pieces of the puzzle on the table in front of him, he could never assemble it all into the correct picture. As a result, this person has struggled his entire life both personally and professionally, despite his intelligence. He's his own worst enemy.

As to Ms. Ocasio, wake me up when she has something significant to say. Being honored or placed in positions for being a young politically active Hispanic woman? That don't impress me much. Creating a publishing company? Likewise. Working as a community organizer? Non-job.

A Bachelors degree in economics IS a worthless degree. Dime a dozen. Masters is a minimum to go anywhere in that field. And International Relations? Leads to a government or not for profit job, but such jobs are also based on who you know.

Congratulations, because you in effect are the one that smeared Trump with that statement that summed up his University qualifications.

As usual you set the bar to a certain level, but your Idol and cult leader Trump is elevated sky high. What has real estate or businesses got to do with running the country? If they both have degrees in economics then they are equally qualified for politics. So Promo was right about you twisting and turning the facts to suit your needs. We know that Trump has created the biggest friction with all the close allies including Canada. All he does is trying to pander to all the vile dictators round the globe including Putin and Kim.

Sticks and stones Sunshine. You got caught in your lies and bull shit, you couldn't even twist yourself out of this one.

You had 16 posts just yesterday. Assume 5 minutes to read a post, 7 minutes to respond ..... that's 3.2 hours!! That doesn't include the time perusing other posts. Those 16 posts are spread almost evenly from 10 AM to 22:30 PM. Same for the last several days. 6 posts already today by 13:00. For a guy that claims "(I do) a lot more each day than post on TERB occasionally" ....... the undeniable proof is that post you on Terb constantly and spend your entire day here. More lies old fella?

Her name is Ocasio-Cortez. "Wake you up" <-- lol that expression suits you perfectly.

Why your misogyny? I looked back through many of your posts, you really do have a hate for women!

Well, reading your posts certainly make a good case for the proposition that spending time here on this forum is a waste of time. I'll agree with you on that. I call it a guilty pleasure. However, I have a pretty good handle on how much time I waste here, and I can tell you it was far less than 3.2 hours yesterday, more like about an hour. Maybe you think your posts take longer to read than they do. Maybe you're a slow reader/writer. For example, this very exchange of reading your post and responding to it took less than 2 minutes. Meanwhile, other more productive activities go on at the same time. In any event, at least I'm not as afflicted as some, and that would certainly include you, so if you are advising that there are better ways for me to spend my time, that advice would apply to yourself in equal or greater measure.

Just think how much less time I would have wasted here without your posts to respond to! You can be part of the solution!

They're scared of ALL women, IV. When you can't get dates because women are dissuaded by your unpleasant political views, the disappointment turns into rage and the rage turns into fear. Deep, deep, obsessive, dick-wounding, constipating fear. Ocasio-Cortez can sense it. She's a smart, good-looking Hispanic girl. She's seen how the righties look at her at political meetings, their hunger mixed with lack of self esteem and a morbid paralyzing, scrotum-crushing terror. She's seen the way they clench their fists nervously and sweat while she walks past, their faces pale, their soft, white bodies pulsing softly with secret neuroses and terminally crippling self-doubt.

She smirks as she walks past them, confident in her youth, sallow beauty and righteous, woman's rage. They band together in small, self-protective knots of male resentment and they plot and mutter, the way white-skinned, frightened mice plot and mutter against a beautiful, perfect cat.
