Boxer Blows the Charade
We've suspected for a long time now that liberals felt that a different set of rules applied to them as opposed to the rest of us, but we never had proof. Now we do.
Radioblogger caught liberal California Senator Barbara Boxer in the truth as she spoke of the Democratic attempt to change the Senate's advise and consent role in judicial nominations:
...California's very own Barbara Boxer, took to the podium next, and did something remarkable. She forgot to keep up the lie. She told the truth about the strategy of the Democrats. She let what their view of the Constitution truly is. If Rose Woods, Richard Nixon's legendary secretary, worked at either MoveOn or C-span, the following part of the tape would be missing...Click to Listen (MP3) or read the transcript.
...The truth of the matter is it is the Democrats who indeed are changing the Constitutional requirement, because Democrats like Barbara Boxer don't think the current political makeup is fair.

I wonder if that weathered, pocket-sized edition of the Constitution did backflips in Robert Byrd's shirt pocket when she said that.Boxer let slip the simple truth that Senate Democrats don't like playing by the rules this country was founded upon, if the Constitution don't directly and immediately benefit them.
Is anyone really surprised?
