    His initial statements were really spot on, now he”s joined the cease-fire crowd.

    And the primary challenge is real.

    Thank you for your attention to this matter.

      What did he say initially?

      "The intelligent man who is proud of his intelligence is like the condemned man who is proud of his large cell." Simone Weil

        The headline:

        "Representative Jamaal Bowman was one of the left’s brightest stars"

        Hopefully by "brightest" the NYT was referring to luminosity rather than intelligence.

        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

          He shines out like a shaft of gold when all around is dark.

          I was only joking

            In a bigger sense, it makes you wonder how New Yorkers feel about displacing long-time representatives with new-ish characters such as Bowman and AOC.

              @Doctor-Phibes a shaft of something, anyway.

              The dildo of consequences if you will. Dry.

                I coincidentally listened to him in a "debate" with Coleman Hughes and Ruy Texiera shortly before he became famous. I scare quote "debate" because if Bowman is capable of a good faith exchange of ideas, he didn't show it there. He was disgusting with his lowest common denominator race baiting talking points.

                Education is extremely important.
