Republican CONGRESSMAN booed Ocasio Cortez

Dont suppose its possible it was the progdems that boo'd her after all her talk about not voting for her?

Regardless...there may have been one or two boo-ish comments followed by laughter. Hell...the votes for Jim Jordan got MUCH louder boos. But ANYONE that did boo her or give her any type of hype at all...its pretty ridiculous.

What talk was there from AOC about not voting for Pelosi? Link?
 
I'm not denying AOC was booed by her colleages. I'm simply saying there isn't enough evidence to determine who the boo came from as you've described the situation.

Or if anyone else was indeed was booed. There were a lot of votes, the video doesn't show them all.
 
I can't even count the number of times we've been referred to as 'libtards', 'libruls' and of course 'snowflakes'. Some people don't know what etiquette means and for sure can't even spell it correctly.

Two wrongs make a right, and all that....

So who was the 'mystery boo-er'? Who knows? Who cares? FFS...if you actually watch the video it was 1 or 2 voices, certainly not very loud, and it appeared almost as a joke. If you want to hear far more substantive boo's, listen to the votes for Jim Jordan as opposed to McCarthy.

The video link I posted does show them all.

There's a reason you didn't quote her opposing Pelosi because she never did...
 
She could careless what a bunch intolerant old white men think of her....

I don't think she opposes all old white men. She seems enamored with Burnie Sanders and his new brand of crappy old Bolshivik revolutionistic communism.
 
As a fan of "The Breakfast Club," I thought it was adorable.

I saw it for the first time last night and I also enjoyed it. I loved that movie. LOVED it!

I wish I was young and attractive again like she is. I also wish I could have danced like that when I was that age!
 
So AOC heard some boos and jumps to the conclusion it must be Republicans? Did anyone else see or hear the booing?

Maybe it happened maybe AOC is play loose with facts for political gain the way Trump does

I read it in the famous right leaning publication, The Washington Examiner. One of Trump's favorite media outlets.

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/gop-lawmakers-groan-as-alexandria-ocasio-cortez-votes-for-nancy-pelosi-to-be-speaker

So no, it didn't happen that she played loose with the facts the way Trump does. Trump lies. She didn't.
 
Well, quote her. Simple.
:lamo

Only you would make an issue of ANY of this. THAT is what is so ****ing comical. And pathetic.

Name the 'republican' that boo'd her.
 
And the more progressive alternative to Pelosi who threw his/her name into the hat was whom?

She never pledged to oppose Pelosi, only to vote for the most progressive person up for Speaker, which was....Pelosi.

She should have voted for Kevin McCarthy or Jim Jordan!
 
Why are the citizens of Trump Fan Nation tinkling in their panties about who she voted for?

You're the one who is 1) on this thread, 2) making claims about AOC that are false, and 3) responded with a wall of blind links that don't support your point. If you believe your links did, quote AOC.

FWIW, you can read my post at #26 and see I don't think it's a big deal.

What I find funny are right wingers lying about what AOC said about Pelosi, and so am pointing out their untruths. It's also funny how much space she's occupying in right wing heads. She's a first year Congresswoman with the approximately zero power that comes with being a newbie in Congress.

Right!

There were a number of Democrats who ran on opposing Pelosi for speaker. If one of them then supported Pelosi, that's fine to point out, but AOC didn't make opposing Pelosi part of her campaign and never pledged to oppose her. After the election, AOC said, roughly, "let's see who's in the running, then I'll decide." Seems....OK to me.

What makes you think its republicans that care about who she voted for? Who boo'd her?

A better question might be considering the continuous stream of stupid **** that comes from her mouth, why are so many idiot leftists peeing their panties in delight over her?

Irony ^^^^^

FWIW, I'm enjoying watching her troll right wingers online. She's good at it, but to be fair she has easy targets.

Go back and reread the thread. NOTHING I said was incorrect IN TH LEAST, and when you asked for supporting evidence, I provided it. THEN you wanted something where she speciifcally said she would NOT vote for her...a comment which I never made. But the bigest poit to all of this and consistent through out is...WHO GIVES A ****. She is a junior congressman...newly 'inaugurated'...and quite possibly will challenge Hank Johnson for the title of stupidest person in congress.

Now if you insist it was republicans that boo'd her and that they are afraid of her (a concept I find laughable) then point to WHO it was that 'boo'd her.

Or dont. Because believe it or not the level of ****s I DONT have about this person or your opinion literally cannot me measured with current scientific technology.
 
I know you are dying to try and parse it down to being so needy that you will never be happy but... I'm not going to interpret videoes for you. Go home, watch it, then bitch about something new.

You have no answer because it didn't happen. The video does not show one Republican booing her. Just more endless false news to make false attacks against Republicans. That's all most of the leftwing MSM, press and blogs are now.

I don't insist on anything. I've pointed out and provided the links of multiple people including those from Fox News reported it was Republicans who groaned or booed her. That's what I know, what everyone who was there when it happened is reporting.

And it's just hilarious that you're posting on a thread, repeatedly, including giving me a wall of bad links, on a topic about which you don't care about. If you don't care about the topic, don't come into the topic with bull**** you cannot support. Easy peasy!

You have to ask The Washington Examiner. According to them, it was Republicans.

Are you calling the far right Washington Examiner idiots?

Not to mention, as an adult elected to Congress, she's free to cast her vote for whomever she wants to.

I wonder if the alt-righters having vapors because she voted for Pelosi made copious amounts of posts on here complaining that Ted Cruz supported Donald Trump when he vowed he wouldn't. Something tells me if I look at their posts from the last 2 years, I won't find any.

I don't even like this woman, but I will admit I enjoy watching her make the alt-right Trump lovers dance like marionettes. She is jerking their strings and they are dancing away.

Thanks for calling The Washington Examiner false news. I'll remind you of that when they publish their next "Donald Trump is the bestest President ever" article, which is bound to come in the next few minutes.
