Cenk...Barbara Boxer and her fear.

[haikugal]

[tomm2thumbs]

1. she doth protest too much

bought and paid for in my humble opinion, especially after seeing her 'kiss off' to the crowd like some some wrestling-contestant leaving the ring

[haikugal]

2. It is known...

[riversedge]

3. oh silly you. Blowing kisses is egg'ing them on. ha ha ha

[tomm2thumbs]

5. I adjusted

egg'ing them on was poorly chosen sentiment, I adjusted my post as you are correct in calling it out

[passiveporcupine]

23. They were sarcastic "kisses"

And I heard her say "shame on you" twice in that video, while throwing those kisses. Yes, she was egging them on. And she shook her finger at them (that was where Cenk thought she was flipping them off).

She was still trolling them...no fear...she had security all around her so she felt safe in doing so.

I think she might have been drunk or something.

[haikugal]

7. Perhaps but it's also hardly what I'd call a fear response....honestly!

[billhicks76]

26. Boxer Is Related To Clinton Through Marriage

Go figure.

[zentrum]

4. Not buying what Boxer

.....is selling.

6. Barbara Boxer had solid liberal credibility.

I think she was their just to calm Sanders supporters. Why else would she be there instead of California or D.C.?

It's interesting to see how many Democratic Pols are more interested in propping up the Clinton "campaign". I have to go be what they're doing not what they've done.

[malokvale77]

9. "I think she was their just to calm Sanders supporters."

Knowing they were about to be skewered?

Wow, I feel so much better now.

[KPN]

21. She was there because Hillary need a CA win!

Who better to intentionally hit Berner hot buttons and then be the subject of their wrath than Boxer from that standpoint.

This whole event was planned. Bernie supporters are passionate; they knew they could push hot buttons and then claim violence.

[Bodych]

8. Call it what it is: LIES

Barbara Boxer: LIAR
Debbie Wasserman Schultz: LIAR
Claire McCaskill: LIAR
Roberta Lange: LIAR
Nevada Democratic Party: LIARS

All of the above publicly lied (Lange) or used "violence" in their hateful rhetoric or official complaints, to describe Sanders supporters. All are liars. The Nevada Democratic Party said that supporters "incited" violence.

And Hillary Clinton, who didn't dodge sniper fire in Bosnia, appears to sanction this rhetoric. I have not heard her apologize for her surrogates' smear-job of Bernie Sanders and his supporters.

This is what Americans are up against. This is why Americans will not turn out in great numbers in November if Clinton makes it that far. You can call voters lazy or stupid all you want, but they're fed up with this old-school style of toxic politics and toxic people.

[malokvale77]

10. ^^^ this ^^^

I could add so much more, but you stated it well enough that I won't invite the pearl clutchers.

[zeemike]

11. Yep. LIES

And if Clinton and her supporters want to do the right thing they will condemn those lies.

But I suppose that winning is too important to them and they think they can win by pretending those lies are the truth.
Moral breakdown on the left, just like the right.

[Raster]

30. Clinton and her supporters do the right thing and condemn the lies???

As the Madam checks with her Lie-Master-in-Chief, Brock, to get the shit slant for the day.

[wallyworld2]

13. not just a liar

But she was egging them on and rubbing their faces in fact that they were not going to be allowed to participate and that they could do nothing about it.

She was safe and she knew, she was not being threatened at all

It is outrageouse that she behaved in such a way and continued with this fraud that only belittles Sanders supporters during interviews afterward.

This is such a low.

She's going Barney Frank and Howard Dean.

I cannot believe the level once supposedly Progressive Democratic leaders have stooped to.

And they want us to believe they will represent the people they belittle and sell out.

[haikugal]

18. The mask is off. This is who they are. Mean girl Boxer no different than Palin.

[wallyworld2]

22. During

her run against Carly Fiorina, she was seen as the mature and dignified one.

It turns out maybe not so much.

Now that she is about to retire and hit the big money lobbying circuit.

She can afford to act like the wealthy Carly

[Plucketeer]

31. Not to challenge the tone of this thread

but "no different than Palin,"? At least Senator Boxer can use language coherently - even if when she does so she says the wrong things.

I do believe we're seeing the costume come off of the Establishment. The pitiful pretending is no longer swathed on to try an' cover the truth. Like a turd in the bowl - now that it's out, there's no masking the stink. And trying to blame it on others is futile. It's time for one GIANT flush.

[haikugal]

33. Harsh, perhaps but Barbara didn't sound coherent to me in Nevada. Sorry. Also the comment was about

being a mean girl like Palin and I make no apology for that because that's the way I see it.

Otherwise we agree on everything you said.

[Tumbulu]

32. Are you insane? You all lost my vote over this misogyny.

Shame on you and all the other Bernie supporters who could ever say such a thing.. Barbara Boxer has been far more liberal than Sander's all the years that she has been in the Senate. She has every right to support Hillary. I just switched from Bernie to Hillary over this absolutely blatant unrepentant misogyny, and I know a whole lot of other people who have reacted the very same way.

[haikugal]

34. Shame on me for noticing corruption and speaking out about it? Please. No Barbara has not been more

liberal than Bernie, care to back that up? She has every right to support who ever she chooses, correct, but the process needs to be honored not perverted. I doubt you ever really supported Bernie if you can switch to Hillary so easily all while deluding yourself to believe making a remark about Barbara's behavior or Hillary's obvious corruption is misogyny...that's pathetic.

[Tumbulu]

36. No it is not, and you can google for yourself. She is my Senator,

and she has more than pulled her liberal weight. And she never wrote rape porn novels for fun, either. And she has supported real gun control, which Bernie never has.

And you think that people not registered as Democrats should be allowed into a Democratic Convention as delegates? What rules are you referring to?

Here is a good article on the misogyny that I sure see around these discussions:

[closeupready]

35. What pathetic nonsense. You were NEVER going to vote Bernie.

DU is a message board, nothing more.

If you switched votes over alleged misogyny on a message board ...

[haikugal]

37. Seriously...and I don't think misogyny is what she thinks it is.

[MisterP]

16. Reid, Huerta ...

[jalan48]

12. Boozed up Boxer? nt

[haikugal]

17. Botox Boxer...almost unrecognizable.

[frylock]

14. She can f.o.

[thereismore]

15. Boxer is related to Clinton by marriage. nt

[Jack Rabbit]

19. The Nevada Convention proves the point Bernie has been running on for a year

the establishment -- the leaders of corporations, the leadership of both major political parties, major mainstream media outlets, Hillary Clinton herself, Donald Trump himself, and their donors and campaign organizations -- are corrupt, totally corrupt, conniving liars, irresponsible, unprofessional, undemocratic and totally unworthy of any position of leadership or responsibility in a democratic state. They should be removed from power immediately and replaced by a transparent, open, inclusive and democratic system of popular government.

Down with the Robber Barons! Power to The People!

[haikugal]

20. Well done!! He's with us!

[Enthusiast]

29. A massive gigantic plus one for your post!

You accurately identify the entire establishment, both sides of the establishment, as totally corrupt.

It's corruption from sea to shining sea.

[Roy Rolling]

24. The whole "BernieBros" narrative is a sham

To soften the image of an often-unlikeable Hillary Clinton, the campaign decided to make Bernie Sanders supporters appear violent. (yes, they actually used that word)

Voilà. Hillary the victim. Worthy of sympathy.

[haikugal]

25. How Palinesque.....isn't that what all narcissists do, blame everyone else?

Good point!

[pansypoo53219]

27. call me abernie bro CAUSE I AM AFRAID HILLARY IS GONNA LOSE to a COMPLETE loser.

[Enthusiast]

28. Kicked and recommended to the Max!

I couldn't be more disappointed in Boxer. I am shocked by her duplicity. However no level of duplicity by the media surprises me now. They are blatantly biased across the board.

Thank you, haikugal!
