Barbara Boxer is proof that you can take the girl out of Brooklyn but you can't take the Brooklyn out of the girl. She is the stereotype pushy loud girl from my favorite NY Borough. The only difference is Brooklyn girls are a lot smarter
Just recently there was the famous "don't call me Ma'am episode" and her run-in with the head of the Black Chamber of Commerce is an all time classic. Those two events are not unique, Boxer has a reputation for nasty, brashness.
For example there was that time she criticized Condoleezza Rice for not having children:
"I'm not going to pay a personal price. My kids are too old and my grandchild is too young. You're not going to pay a personal price, as I understand it, with an immediate family. So who pays the price? The American military and their families... not me, not you." When Rice interjected, Boxer responded by saying, "Madam Secretary, please. I know you feel terrible about it. That's not the point. I was making the case as to who pays the price for your decisions. And the fact that this administration would move forward with this escalation with no clue as to the further price that we're going to pay militarily... I find really appalling.
Boxer's penchant for beginning to worry Senate Democrats. After the recess Cap and trad is going to rest in her hands and it will take delicate negotiations and diplomacy. This has never been part of Barbara Boxer's skill set:

Is this a trick question?
Boxer is a 100 foot car.
When we go to antique auto shows ,we stand 100 feet from a car and say , Man! That car is beautiful, but when we get closer, we see the paint runs, and the body putty ,and the door nicks.
Oh to finally be rid of that detestable shrew! What a glorious day for California that will be!
NO contest. Replace your Boxer with ours post haste.
“But Boxer says she wont suffer a backlash politically if she cant get the bill through the Senate, saying that the most important thing for her supporters is that she continues to fight for the environment, health care reform, economic recovery and abortion rights.
If I stop fighting for them, I would never get reelected, because these are the issues that have always been my signature issues, Boxer said.”

I love it! Boxer is dismissing those allies begging her to tone it down. She proclaims that her supporters are hard-core lefties who want her to sock it to em’ so for her own personal benefit, she’s going to keep right on doing what she’s doing regardless of the cost to her party.
You go girl.
As a Californian who has voted against her three times when she ran for the Senate, I can truthfully say that she is the most obnoxious dumb-ass person to inhabit the Golden State. They broke the mold after they made her as the human race could not stomach another one like her.
Your boxer would make a better Senator, too. It’s time for Kaleefornia to send their Boxer to the pound.
Looks like Barbie doesn't care too much for FREERIDERS.
You got that right. She might make a few procedural errors here and there as she learned on the job, but she would do a better job that Babs Box of Rocks.

Boxer is why the word “Stereotype” exists.
The personalities (or lack thereof) of the members of congress do not interest me. What depresses me is that crucial legislation is not the result of the truth of the theory but of skillful manipulations of the members at deal making. It is a disgrace that we will be reduced to poverty by the passage of a tax on carbon dioxide (which causes no harm) because one member can make a deal with another so that each party can maintain his power.
She called Rice “madame”! What a stinking hypocrite!
