Barbara Boxer is doing a GREAT service to this country!
I really admire that woman.

Boxer to Rice:

"Let's not rewrite history...is too soon for that"

* After Rice LIED ONCE AGAIN about what she said was the reason to invade Iraq, the ONE AND ONLY REASON: WMDs.

If we continue supporting Boxer, she'll become A FORCE WITHIN THE DEMOCRATS.

3. I had that very same thought last night
when I read the things she planned to say to Rice. Boxer may be laying the groundwork for a presidential run.

6. She's great -- send e-mail to CNN & MSNBC to support her
If you haven't done this already, would you please send a few lines telling CNN and MSNBC how you feel about Boxer. Here's a post with the link.

7. I think that she already is a force in the party
I wonder if she is thinking about running in 08?

Anyhow, I believe that whoever runs, we'd better do something about exposing this election fraud and preventing further occurrences if ANY Democrat is going to have a chance.

8. Yes, but...
Is a force that needs to get MORE EXPOSURE.

That's our job.

9. It's almost stupefying to witness a Democratic Senator --
-- standing up for the American democracy.

And not just today against Condi but last week also against election fraud.

Go Senator Boxer.

10. more than that, she is also teaching Democrats . . .
how to be Democrats . . . hell-o-o-o-o, people! . . . THIS is what an opposition party is supposed to do . . . particularly when the opposition is the worst administration in the history of the nation, with great potential for both bankrupting the government AND plunging the planet into a cataclysmic world war AND an economic depression . . . you GO, Barbara! . . .

14. I will vote for Boxer in 08 OR vote Green at this stage.
Edited on Tue Jan-18-05 10:14 PM by EndElectoral
She was a dynamo today, and wouldn't back down. Most gutsy liberal in all of the Senate currently.

Also liked Sarbannes today. Made Rice look like an idiot, and Dodd showed her as incredibly evasive.

Hard to beleive she will be the Secretary of State. Even Repub. Lincoln Chafee was appalled, and even Lugar kept trying to help her.

If she is confirmed, anyone can be.

19. She's fantastic!
Her fellow Democratic senators need to take a page from her playbook. How bad does the stink have to get for them to find some backbone?

23. Holding condi's FEET TO THE FIRE...
...on authorizing torture!!!! Barbara is the virtuoso of political discourse.

Dr. Filibuster Rice just couldn't get Senator Boxer OFF the subject of that memo she wrote disabling a bipartisan UNISON vote against any U.S. authority to violate the Geneva Conventions.

She just couldn't get Senator Boxer OFF the subject of what constitutes the torture of human beings, in her opinion.

She just couldn't STOP herself from reminding us that certain special people don't qualify to be treated like human beings.

She just couldn't just couldn't get Senator Boxer to stop REMINDING us that the Geneva Conventions are about OUR moral authority to insist on the humane treatment of our own troops, if and when they become war prisoners.

Darn that pesky Senator Boxer!
