Boxer Accuses GOP of Acting Like Domestic Abusers

Sen. Barbara Boxer likened GOP lawmakers to people who abuse their spouses on Monday when discussing the current government shutdown and the looming debt limit deadline.

The California Democrat, who like most in her party, blames the lack of government funding and current impasse over raising the debt ceiling on Republicans who have insisted on passing measures aimed at dismantling the Affordable Care Act, known as Obamacare.

First she compared the current budget crisis to walking down the street on a nice day and then deciding to bash yourself in the head with a rock.

Then she said:

“It’s a self-inflicted wound. I never questioned, never questioned the fact that Republicans, Democrats, and Independents love this country. Love this country. I never questioned it. But I have to say, when you start acting like you’re committing domestic abuse, you’ve got a problem. ‘I love you dear, but you know, I’m shutting down your entire government. I love you dear, but I’m going to default and you’re going to be weak.’ Something is dreadfully wrong.

I love you dear, but I am going to have to take away your checkbook.

I let you have this joint checking account because we have had an agreed budgeting process to protect our family and household that was well established for four generations of our family. However, you have failed to budget, participate in budgeting, cooperate in budgeting and have ignored the process for six years.

Destructively, you have used a crisis after the first year of your refusal where the spending was set high in hopes of salvaging a quick recovery and you have wanted to just “continue” that crisis budget year to year while failing to balance you checkbook each year as well.

As you have no fiscal sense, lie to continue in your outlandish spending and thereby seek to destroy the family, I am taking the checkbook as agreed at the time of our marriage was my right, until you show a small amount of proper behavior. Attempts by you to call this abuse are childish at best.

Ignorant cow.

That’s our Boxer, aptly named, she has a mind like closed box stuffed with excrement. I want to know how California ended up with such a plethora of ignorant women demonrats in government. I mean I know we we are overrun by demonrats, but did we really have to get a majority of the truly ignorant?

Ms Boxer. Do not discuss issues. Just smear those whom you hate, right?

California used to be conservative. but they let a lot of illegals in and the 80’s amnesty turned California democrat.

this will happen to the whole USA if they pass the current Amnesty

they tricked Reagan into passing amnesty then

Something is dreadfully wrong.

Something is dreadfully wrong with the mind of anyone who likens government budget politics to spousal abuse. Tell me where the similarities are, please.
