What is the difference between Cory Booker and Emily Litella, the late Gilda Radner's classic "Saturday Night Live" character who would go off on epic rants only to say, when told her premise was incorrect, "Never mind"? Cory Booker will not say, "Never mind."
Booker, the new poster child for demagoguery, called it his Spartacus moment, pretending to risk his political career by releasing, in violation of Senate rules, an email by Judge Brett Kavanaugh on racial profiling that had already been cleared for release, a post 9/11 email that expressed the hope that a race-neutral set of rules for vetting terrorists could be found. Racist it was not, except in the mind of Booker, who was less like Spartacus and more like that little Martian in the movie Space Jam ready to fall on his rubber sword.
As Fox news contributor and Democratic pollster Doug Schoen opines about Booker's latest tirade
The senator was not elected to pretend to engage in civil disobedience that really isn't civil disobedience – in an effort to appeal to the Democrats' growing progressive wing – without taking any real risks at all.
And Booker was not elected to play the role of one of the many protesters who, during Kavanaugh's hearing and previously, have taken well-publicized protest actions to "resist" the Trump administration in every way possible, including violating the law….
Even though the rule-breaking by Booker turned out not to be rule-breaking in the end, it set a bad precedent. Senators need to follow the rules of the chamber. That's because in order for the Senate to operate smoothly in service of the American people it has to operate by rules – and members have to be able to trust each other to abide by those rules.

The Democrats are more than willing to invoke racism even when it doesn’t exist.
Booker: “I am Sharptacus”
“It’s the closest I may ever come to a race-baiting poverty-pimping moment.”
“Cory Booker Is Sharpton, Not Spartacus”
Spurticus.
I am crybabycus.
“The senator was not elected to pretend to engage in civil disobedience ...”
He was elected PURELY because he is a democrat in New Jersey. Period. The voters are simply to stupid, corrupt and unsophisticated to consider anything else.
Booker is just worried that the new girl, Occasional Cotex, is going to get all the press.
All groups have an intelligence distribution, but it appears that those of all groups who live on the left side of the curve appear to favor politics.
Booker is demonstrably a dumbass. So is Dorkbama the Muslim eunuch quota boy. And so on and so on.
“Fartacus”.
I imagine Booker’s constituency: “Who da fxxk is Sparticus...and what’s he done for me?”
“Occasional Cotex”
Is she friends with Krystin Enema?
I think so, and Bugs Bunny’s Dentist.
Yeah, no kidding! Occcasional Cotex has some relatives that are beavers of the tree gnawing variety! Carrots are a breeze for her. Does she often say "what's up Doc?"
Booker’s reach for a sand and sandals metaphor is revealing of the images swirling around in his head.
The demeanor displayed by Democrats is truly embarrassing.
They didn’t even allow Grassly to get through welcoming comments on the very first day before they started objecting and talking over him.
It was very frustrating trying to listen when the paid disrupters were constantly ranting and raving.
But to senator Durbin, the disrupters are the noise I’d democracy. Would he have the same opinion if anyone had behaved that way at the hearings for the wise Latina ??
I have to disagree.
Rev. (i use the term loosely) Sharpton is a skilled political operator. He is dishonest, a liar, and a charlatan, but he is also knows his own limitations, and has tempered his ambitions accordingly. He is also a master of gaining and holding his target audience to serve his own interests and causes he supports.
Senator Booker is none of these. His attempt to embarrass the Republicans and Judge Kavanaugh was amateurish and incompetent. Democrat operatives are looking at him and see someone Mr. Trump will brush off like lint. He is not a serious challenger for the Presidency and looks smaller for trying.
Cory Booker Is Sharpton, Not Sparticus
...and neither one gets any R-E-S-P-I-C-T.
Corey Booker/Commie Harris are intellectualoids.Pseudo education, hyper- arrogant usefull idiot aparatchics...
Their lack of self-control is only exceeded by their lust for power and wealth.
