Mrs. BOXER. Mr. President, I was listening to the Senator from South Carolina (DeMINT). I thought he was going to make some comments about the vote that just took place on one of the most important issues facing the Senate. Instead, he launched into an attack on Senator HARRY REID.
Shakespeare once said something to this effect: When someone acts that way, he is protesting too much. So Senator Reid must have hit a chord with the Senator from South Carolina, and there are reasons for it.
But I really think the quote applies more to Boxer than DeMINT, after all "The lady doth protest too much, methinks."
I could tell she absolutely had a memory lapse and got all tangled up in that attempted quote. LOL
The first time I heard Barbara Boxer speak on the news, I thought, "This woman is a real idiot."
