    As Clint Eastwood famously said, "man's got to know his limitations." AOC could easily have made a more measured commentary - and it would have been fine. "Even though I wasn't in the Capital itself..."

    This rings a lot like Hillary's famous run across the tarmac dodging bullets. Great story for friends after a few drinks at the bar - but not something you share publicly.

      She's an embarrassment.

      I assume the Dems will primary her next election.

              Yes she is. Plus she's an incompetent menace. Biden must purge her and the other Jacobins from the DNC. If they don't they will try to primary her since Sanders days are over.

              I hesitate to call her a 'menace' -- unless you count the risk of being annoyed to death.

              Oh, but wait. I'm speaking from my old viewpoint, when I believed that most voters had common sense and at least a smidgeon of independent thinking. I figured she would be removed forthwith in the next election because, I mean, look at her. I would never have predicted her second win.

              Shows you what I know.

              So yeah, these days Democrats and Republicans both are apt to elect a rabid rhinoceros if it had its party affiliation painted on its hide. Plus she's just so cute n' everything.

                I was thinking of menace in terms of an expression my friend the horse trainer used to say:

                "There's nothing more dangerous than an idiot armed with a little bit of knowledge."

                                      The city weed inspector position is currently usually handled by the mayor or head of public works, and they watch for reports of thistles and other noxious weeds. Hey, somebody has to do this.

                                      Looking for marijuana plants is the job of high schoolers who volunteer without even notifying the city.

                                          I wonder if they'd give me a fast-response vehicle with flashing lights and a big siren on it. That would be freaking awesome. I could wear a hazmat suit and everything.

                                          I was only joking
