Here is "too good" video of Glenn Beck today enjoying, while eating pudding, the delicious slapdown of Democrat Sen. Barbara Boxer that occured yesterday at the hands of Harry Alford, the outstanding CEO of the Black Chamber of Commerce. The video replays highlights of the slapdown with an inset of Glenn Beck enjoying it beyond measure! . . . . (Watch Video)

Barbara Boxer found herself on the recieving end of a righteous ass-kicking on the floor of the Senate when she tried to get bossy with Harry Alford, Chairman of the National Black Chamber of Commerce. After she determined that he wasn't on board with the administration's job-killing energy policies, she tried to (painfully and pedantically) help him understand that his role as a black man is to support the administration - even waving around position papers from black organizations that know their place- Alford rightly and righteously tore her up for her thinly-veiled bigotry and racist tones

This is just unbelievable. And Harry Alford? My hats off to you, sir. This is an exchange not to be missed... made especially delicious by a respectful man, lashing out at a woman with the chutzpah to be offended at being addressed as "maam" instead of "Senator" by Brigadier General Michael Walsh, with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, not long ago. Brief WSJ story here, but the biggest H/T goes to Mark Levin's broadcast of the audio on his show today.[video at site] (Excerpt) Read more at floppingaces.net ...

Here is an exclusive interview done by Breitbart TV's "The B-Cast" with Black Chamber of Commerce CEO Harry Alford this afternoon about his confrontation with Democrat Sen. Barbara Boxer concerning what he described as her "condescending" racial remarks to him as he testified on the Cap and Trade Bill. In this interview, Alford said it was "like being in Mississippi in 1945," and described her treatment of him as, "it was vile Jim Crow." Alford was particularly insulted that Boxer was countering his well-researched, documented testimony with a series of quotes and resolutions from "African-American" sources, as if he should...

Mimi Beardsley Alford may get a seven-figure sum for her story, Philip Sherwell reports from New York. A FORMER White House intern who had a 17-month affair with president John Kennedy is to tell her story for the first time. Mimi Beardsley Alford, now 66, a retired New York church administrator, will receive an advance believed to be worth nearly $US1 million ($A1.3 million) from publisher Random House for her memoir. Mrs Alford, who is breaking her silence after more than 45 years, maintained the secret about her relationship with the womanising president until a new Kennedy biography was published...

Mimi Beardsley Alford, a retired New York church administrator who had an affair with John F. Kennedy while she was an intern in the White House, is breaking a silence of more than 40 years to tell her story in a memoir to be published by Random House. Ms. Alford’s secret was initially divulged six years ago when a biography of Kennedy was published with portions from a 1964 oral history that described the president’s 18-month sexual affair with a young intern named Mimi Beardsley. The Daily News tracked her down and discovered that she was Marion Fahnestock, who was...

The Army will announce tomorrow that Sgt James Alford has been recalled to active duty. This happened because it's the right thing to do, and the men that made it happen are Army Chief of Staff Schoomaker and SF Command Commanding General Philip Kensinger. Sgt Alford is terminally ill with a rare version of Creuzfeldt-Jakob disease, often called "the human version of Mad Cow disease." (It's a little more complicated than that; the type of CJD Alford has is not related to eating prion-contaminated meat, but appears to be caused by a mutation in his one-in-a-million case). Unfortunately, the disease...
