Let's track all the ways Boxer is treated as a crazylady in the MSM
Here's a start...

http://www.nydailynews.com/front/story/272798p-233349c.html

How about emailing the New York Daily News to object to calm, dignified Barbara Boxer being depicted as an emotional woman who's having a tearful post-menopausal meltdown, as if her courageously drawing attention to fraud and lies is basically just a hot flash?

To my mind, she's the only one in the Senate who has any balls....

2. Its not the MSM, it is the Stenography Corp
remember, Air America IS part of the mainstream, you need to frame these peole for what they are.

They did a very succesful job with the so called liberal media... well time to call the whores what they are: STENOGRAPHERS

4. Drudge had a particulary unflattering photo of her with Condi today
:eyes: Because with women, remember, it's not what you say but how you look.

6. Exactly! It's nothing to take at all seriously. It's just infotainment.
See, because like, President Bush is all hot and stuff, and Barbara's way jealous Condi's got him, you know? :eyes:

7. If Dems behaved like Repubs, they'd pull a Linda Tripp...

...to get to the bottom of that "My husb, I mean, the president," dinner party slip of the tongue.

10. I was steaming by the time I finished reading this article
I saw that too. It was absolutely disgraceful the way they demeaned Barbara Boxer like that, from her stance on the election fraud to the Condi appointment. I'm writing a response to the guy I was so pissed, but I don't think it will do any good.

BTW, I'm new, I've been lurking since after the election, and have now joined.

11. Welcome to DU!
Did you notice that he was afraid to go after Conyers, or any African-American house members who objected to the fraud?

12. I'm curious, what was the tipping point...
That made you stop lurking and start posting?
