Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's hypocrisy is on display in some remarkable ways

It’s bad enough that the Democrats are trying to bamboozle their own base with the so-called Green New Deal. As I discuss in a previous column, this project is simply a get-out-the-vote effort using extreme language to manipulate their own base in a cynical campaign effort for 2020.

Now, almost every day, the hypocrisy of the left’s new arrogant heroes is on display in some of the most remarkable ways.

We know Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York claims the world is going to end in 12 short years if we don’t dramatically change the way we live.

“We’re like, ‘The world is going to end in 12 years if we don’t address climate change.’ And, like, this is the war; this is our World War II,” she said during an interview in January in New York City.

Her plan of attack means eliminating, among other things, all fossil fuels, airplanes, cars and cow flatulence. In the meantime, the New York Post found that the left’s Gen. George S. Patton in charge of climate change is more their Leona Helmsley in charge of rules only applying to the little people.
