The way Dems have treated Rice has been despicable, from day one.
Remember the 911 hearings?
These people are relentless and flat-out rude.
Boxer leads the pack in that regard.
And Clarence Thomas, along with a multitude of others they are totally intolerant of. All the while screeching "TOLERANCE!!!" (and "DIVERSITY!!!")
Mrs. Wasp thinks that Boxer has never been to war. Who is she to ask any questions of anyone about war? Or Nancy Pilosee! Or Barney Frank for that matter! He's childless and I doubt ANY of 'em have ever been in combat of any kind involving flying lead poisoning!!!
