I really hate even talking about this moron, but when I saw her pic, the first thing that entered my mind was, Mr Edd the talking horse.
I'm serious, it really did remind me of that show 5 plus decades ago.

Oh, so anyway, the story. :biggrin:
Freshman lawmaker Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez dropped a hammer on Joe Lieberman on Thursday, after the onetime Democratic vice presidential candidate said he feared her brand of high-tax socialism could doom the party's chances for long-term dominance in Congress.
'I certainly hope she's not the future and I don't believe she is,' Lieberman said in a Fox Business Network interview. He retired in 2013 after serving 24 years in the U.S. Senate.
The 29-year-old Ocasio-Cortez retweeted the 76-year-old's sentiment with a four-word rejoinder: 'New party, who dis?'
'Who dis?' is a common response to a text message from an unknown number. Among millennials in the smartphone generation, the phrase has morphed into a snarky tool for rejecting someone by framing their approach as a mistake.
Democratic House leaders have sought to sideline her in practical ways that could limit the public's exposure to her less mainstream views.
When she made a play this month for a seat on the powerful Ways and Means Committee, a senior Democrat told Politico that 't totally pissed off everyone. You don't get picked for committees by who your grass-roots [supporters] are.'
Veteran Democratic members suspected Ocasio-Cortez was behind a siable online campaign to convince Speaker Nancy Pelosi to give her the plum appointment.
And she is expected to loudly advocate for Democratic primary campaigns against some of the middle-of-the-road members of her own party in Congress.
Her new chief of staff, Saikat Chakrabarti, told supporters during a November conference call that 'we gotta primary folks.'
