    Ocasio-Cortez Claims It's Better to Be 'Morally Right' Than Factually Correct

    -Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) admitted that she believes it is more important to be morally right than to be factually correct.

    Ocasio-Cortez has bobbled many policy questions, most of which relate to her plan to pay for expensive socialist policies, though she has tripped up on a few answers relating to other topics including history and the Middle East.

    During an interview on “60 Minutes” with Anderson Cooper, Ocasio-Cortez responded to a question about one of the several policy statements she has incorrectly lobbed onto her Twitter feed. Cooper asked her about her tweet regarding Pentagon spending.

    As IJR previously reported, the Washington Post gave Ocasio-Cortez “Four Pinocchios” for her misleading statement.

    When Copper pressed her on this and other false statements she has made, Ocasio-Cortez said that it was more important to be “morally right” than precisely accurate in her speech...

    The only problem with that is she isn't morally right either.

    Exactly...and she's basically saying that she will misrepresent/lie to further agendas that she feels are moral in her opinion.

    The arrogance of this. Her haughtiness renders her blind. She is in the ditch.

    There's a lot of contention about infactual statements in US politics these days, including what one side claims are "simply the facts". Trump himself might be the most contended nationwide politician of modern times when it comes to this issue ?

    She is the same moonbat who thinks that the wealthy should be taxed at 70% or maybe even 90% when their earnings reach a certain level. I am not wealthy (in an earthly fashion), but someone wanting to take 70 cents on the dollar from anyone should be tarred and feathered and ran out of the country. This whole "let's steal from the rich and give it to the lazy" mentality that these socialists have really gets me riled up.

    and here's another interesting part..

    She is one of those who say there are no absolutes, and yet, here she is declaring she holds a moral absolute.
