You’re talking about landing a man on the moon within ten years?

I think you’re projecting the condescension of others in the media onto Anderson here.  He was pretty even-keeled and seemed reasonable.  I also thought she handled it very well.

“His tone is condescending as hell about a series of programs that are trying to head off a melting planet”

I agree. Jesus, we’re talking about Anderson Cooper here, he’s not some Fox News interview and he’s obviously more liberal himself. He’s actually a good journalist with a good news program who should be asking the tough questions. Not sure why people have to keep putting the victim card on AOC.... there’s nothing…

I mean, the problem is that she’s still trying to exist in a fact-based world. That immediately puts her at a disadvantage:

AOC:
Interviewer: Won’t this Green New Deal thing cost a lot and won’t you have to raise taxes?
AOC: Sure, but we can pay for it with additional taxes on the rich.  

Conservative interview:
Intervi…

“Over $700 billion for defense?!? How are you going to pay for that?”

This woman will go far. She has decades in front of her. Decades.

BUT WHAT ABOUT THE DANCING, ANDERSON? WHY NOT ASK THE TOUGH QUESTIONS???

Oh, for Christ’s sake. AOC doesn’t HAVE to do any interviews if she really doesn’t want to. Going on 60 Minutes is a great way for her to get attention for her legislative agenda outside of websites geared to younger voters. I’m sure she was delighted to do it. Asking questions about how big ideas will be funded is a…

There’s nothing “bad” about this interview.

COOPER: Do you call yourself a radical?

Do you deny that the Democratic leadership actively worked to deny Bernie the nomination in violation of its own rules? Because you’re making it sound like there was a level playing field.

I anything this makes me like her more. She's adorable. 

Nothing says "I'm totally not intimidated by a successful and attractive woman, and I am comfortable with my own genitals" like the whole AOC hatefest.

I unironically love this video. It’s silly and nerdy and if anything made me like her more.

It should be interesting to see the not-at-all sexist Bernie fans who totally did not refuse to vote for Hillary because she was a woman and who totally would have totally voted for Elizabeth Warren now find reasons to totally not support Elizabeth Warren.

Why?

I came here to mention that very same show, which, incidentally, I was tipped to via Podmass.

The cops don’t have a say in the matter. It’s a private property. They can have you leave for any reason. Yes, even racist reasons (not saying that’s correct, but legally....hmmm).
