Black Chamber of Commerce CEO Blasts Barbara Boxer for "Condescending" Racial Remarks-Video-MUST See

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!

I guess the gentleman didn't get the memo about how he was supposed to play the role of "house negro".
Should have called this person...

And why isnt the GOP out supporting this gentleman and his economic plea? The only way the GOP will ever get the black vote is to convince them that they are being played as pawns and fools by the Rats. I can't tell you.
I don't support the GOP, I support conservatives be them GOP or Independent.

That is correct. Remember the First Commandment of Animal Farm: All animals are equal. But some animals are more equal than others.

I cant stand boxer, but way shouldnt she use the race card when she is talking to some guy whose organization is totally race based?
Because he deserved the dignity of a response to the issues?

Boxer to Alford: “Toe the line black man.” Her message was more like; "You're uppity boy. You should know your place like a good Negro."
She's a racist kurve.

Just as big of concern........that is a GOP Congressman sitting to Boxer left....
he is as meek as a sheep, does or says nothing in support of Alford.
That is the problem with the GOP we have in Congress....they are either complicit or willing to be led down any path the DNC wants to take them.

Simply hilarious! I drove several thousand miles this week listening to talk radio and every time I heard that bit it got funnier than the time before.!
Boxer doesn't know what to do or how to act when she meets a black guy who can actually walk and talk and think for himself! She is so used to keeping her slaves on the plantation she does not know how to handle the rest.
