An article about a half-wit in a brain-dead newspaper.

Tell that "dumb" bi*** that we are a DEPENDENT people, dependent on our government to protect us from outside forces who seek to destroy us. Perhaps she has forgotten Saddam's glee and praise for the hijackers. Perhaps she has forgotten about his joy when the shuttle crashed.

She is there representing the people of her state, not acting as an individual. Apparently, she votes her personal view and that is not her job description.

Boxer and anti-war presidential candidate Howard Dean, a former governor of Vermont who also addressed delegates, tapped into a strong current of anti-warBush sentiment among Democrats.

If I hear "unilateral" or "rush to war" one more time, I am going to throw up.

Way to go, Barbara! You're opposed to removing a dangerous, murderous dictator from office, but you're just fine with sticking a pair of scissors into the head of a nine-month fetus and sucking his brain out. How does it feel to be on the wrong side of history?

``It shows I'm an independent person'' who's not going ``to rush to send our sons and daughters into combat,'' Boxer said

Sen. Boxer, our troops get it. They volunteer. They know Saddam's a monster and a threat to OUR national security. You could learn a thing or two about honor, courage and what this country stands for from those "poor troops" you so casually exploit and clearly don't understand...or represent.

Barbara Boxer.....The ONLY Senator that can PROVE her family was SCREWED by the Clinton/Rodham mob...

Her daughter was impregnated by one of the fine Rodham boys...

Of course, he has since moved on.....Leaving Grandma Boxer with her "proof" that her family gave at the office and "done her duty"....

I'm truly embarrassed to have this silly old cow as my Senator...

Semper Fi

That would make her wrong twice - no?

If he does , he will defeat her!

This State is primed for a big backlash, We just need
some good candidates. Thirty-five billion in the red
and Davis is still paying off his special interest groups!
