Speculating about Barbara Boxer
The American Thinker Blog ^ | December 02, 2009 | Mark J. Fitzgibbons

One of the surest signs of whether a government official may have something to hide in Climategate, the ACORN scandal or any other controversy is that their first reaction to the scandal is to target the source exposing the scandal.

California Senator Barbara Boxer said at a committee hearing, "You call it 'Climategate'; I call it 'E-mail-theft-gate.'"

I had exactly the same thought. "The lady doth protest too much, methinks."

ACORN tried to blame its own illegal activities on those who documented them, and the Senator is trying to shift the focus away from the real crime - the abrogation of US Sovereignty for a hoax.

I know the purist only want undiluted conservatives in our government but this woman is a menace. I’d support Olympia Snowe in an election against her.

It continues to amaze me how the majority of people of California keep sending that brain dead raving lunatic to the Senate every six years.

If she has invested heavily in so-called “green” companies which will benefit from C&T, then Babs has a serious conflict of interest and she should be investigated!

She’s acting like somebody just broke he little bubble.

This was reported in the UK:

Senator Barbara Boxer (D-Calif) thinks those responsible for Climategate should face criminal charges. “Wow, that’s a bit harsh,” I thought when I read it.

On closer inspection, however, Boxer was calling for prosecution of the hackers, not the resourceful prof and his pals. As she told the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee yesterday: “You call it Climategate; I call it E-mail-theft-gate.”

E-mail-theft-gate. Sorry, Babs, but I don’t think it will catch on. Except, perhaps, at the BBC.

Senator Barbara Boxer's new name for Climategate

Astonishing. - It may become “Boxergate”.
