Boxer: "I'll call Rice a liar again."
US Senator Barbara Boxer (Stark Raving & Drooling Lunatic Moonbat-CA) said today that she would repeat charges that Secretary of State-designee Condoleezza Rice deliberately lied about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
"I will lay out again on the Senate floor [why] I do not believe [she] has been candid with the American people," Sen. Boxer told CNN's "Late Edition with Wolf Blitzer."Boxer's ravings were shown as lies and half-truths by posters across the blogosphere (including me) last week."[She's] gone on shows like yours and made statements that I don't think were true, or they were half-true, didn't tell the whole story, didn't level with the American people."
Reacting to criticism from White House chief of staff Andy Card, who called her attacks on Rice last week "petty politics," the Marin County Democrat taunted, "Even though Andy Card would like me to go away, I'm not going to go away."
"[Rice] said things that were flat-out not true," Sen. Boxer continued. "When she said only one agency thought the aluminum tubes could not be used for nuclear weapons, that wasn't true."
Boxer has some sort of personal grudge; in the eyes of some, she figures she's less vulnerable than most liberals, since she was just reelected to a six-year term by her constituents in California.

"I was just waiting for Condi to answer Boxer's questions, with the real answer, followed by 'Got it? Bitch?'"Posted by: Tuning Spork at January 23, 2005 10:45 PM
Barbara Boxer is a idiot! She wouldn't know the truth if it hit her in the face.
Posted by: Getting My Mind Right at January 24, 2005 12:31 AMI watched the first round of confirmation hearings, and Boxer just struck me as frickin' stupid. She was nowhere near Condi Rice's level. It was sort of like a 5 year old ranting at their parents.
I was, however, very impressed with Obama's questioning.
Keep up the great work mate!

Democrats have already said she will be confirmed.
