Black Chamber of Commerce CEO Blasts Sen. Boxer for "Condescending" Racial Remarks - Video 7/16/09

Here is explosive video of the CEO of the Black Chamber of Commerce in a fiery exchange with California Sen. Barbara Boxer. Black Chamber of Commerce, President and CEO Harry Alford accused Senator Boxer (D-CA) of playing race politics during an EPW Committee hearing on green jobs. He accused her of using "condescending" racial remarks because she tried to counter his testimony by using quotes from several "black" organizations and individuals such as the NAACP. Alford was upset because he wanted his testimony to stand on the merits of the evidence and not be countered by Boxer thinking his testimony could be dismissed by just quoting other "black" organizations with a different view.

Good for Alford! For once, someone actually called a Democrat on what they love to do. Boxer was using racial politics here as so many Democrats have done for years. This time - it backfired big time . . . (Watch Video)

That was the stiffest comeuppance I’ve ever seen! I especially liked when he called her “ma’am” 3 or more times and she just had to sit there and take it (among other smackdowns he dished out). She fell victim to the diversity pecking order; she gets to dis the military, but gets dissed by a black man with impunity (see my tagline). Love it!

A very disturbing revelation...particularly given all the kind words that she’s had for the *White* Chamber of Commerce.

"Let's Move On," she's thinking... "We have the votes to ram this through, let's get this 'peon' off the stage so we can nationalize...."
