The "Barbara Boxer is a dumb *****" thread

[David Floyd]

When do we have "Barbara Boxer Gets Repeatedly ****ed in the Ass by a disease-ridden criminal"-gate?

[Drake Tungsten]

We can certainly hope Huckabee let another guy like that out of prison.

[David Floyd]

If so, he gets my vote in 2012

[Kidlicious]

Drake, if you're gonna call people dumb you better bring more than that, considering all the dumb things you've said.

[Drake Tungsten]

The fact that you think I'm dumb makes me more confident in my intelligence than ever before.

Boxer: Cover Viagra? Then cover abortion

If healthcare reform covers Viagra, it should cover abortion services, Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) said yesterday.

Boxer suggested there was a double standard underlying proposals to restrict abortion coverage. Under those amendments, women would have to buy separate policies, known as "riders," if they wanted insurance for abortions.

"The men who have brought us this don't single out a procedure that's used by a man, or a drug that is used by a man, that involves his reproductive health care and say they have to get a special rider," Boxer said on the Senate floor.

"There's nothing in this amendment that says if a man some days wants to buy Viagra, for example, that his pharmaceutical coverage cannot cover it, that he has to buy a rider. I wouldn't support that," she said.

She's always struck me as a weak senator. Not really even worth making fun of. Wonder why Californians reelect her all the time.

Because SF, LA, SD, SJ vote for her. They have to pop. Calif. has 3 area from top to bottom. The Coast, The Center of the state, and East Calif. 1/3rd of Calif has more pop. than the other 2/3.

Barbara Boxer: Healthcare reform opponents at town halls are too well-dressed to be for real. Also, conservatives should respect me because Reagan was also from California.

Reagan was from Ind., he just live in Calif. for 40+years.
B. Boxer is not from Calif. either. She is from the East Coast.

Reagan was born in a small town in central Illinois, not Indiana.

Leaked e-mails allegedly undermining climate change science should be treated as a criminal matter, Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) said Wednesday afternoon.

Boxer, the top Democrat on the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, said that the recently released e-mails, showing scientists allegedly overstating the case for climate change, should be treated as a crime.

"You call it 'Climategate'; I call it 'E-mail-theft-gate,'" she said during a committee meeting.

Ahahahaha what?

Apparently, the 1st amendment doesn't matter if it's about people who are disagreeing with you

Mickey Kaus to challenge Boxer!

Pioneering political blogger Mickey Kaus took out papers to run for U.S. Senate in California, he told LA Weekly. The Venice resident said he'll run this year against Barbara Boxer for her seat. He said he took out papers at the Los Angeles County Registrar of Voters.

The Democrat has been centrist and even conservative on some of the issues on which Boxer has taken a more left-leaning stand, including immigration: He does not favor amnesty and favors a more restrictive national policy.

The journalist's Wiki entry says he's also "skeptical of affirmative action, labor unions (particularly automotive workers' unions and teachers' unions), and gerrymandering of congressional districts."

It's not clear where he'll get the money to run against such a well-oiled machine as Boxer's. But one blogger called Boxer's poll numbers "less than intimidating."

And in his Kausfiles blog, Kaus has quite the widely-read bully pulpit, with an estimated readership of as many as 30,000 people daily.

Reagan and Boxer are not from Calif. She is from Balt., Maryland and Reagan is from Ill.
I'm from Calif. Modesto, Calif.

[Drake Tungsten]

No offense, but if you don't think a former governor or current Senator of California count as Californians, you're a ******.

[Japher]

re-****?

[Berzerker]

no offense

[Drake Tungsten]

I thought about using "with respect", but that seemed too over the top.
