White House Spokesman Blasts Sen. Boxer’s Exchange With Secretary Rice
WASHINGTON ‚Äö√Ñ√Æ The White House fired back Friday at Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer’s verbal slap at Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, calling the California Democrat’s caustic comments about Rice’s family life “outrageous.”….Boxer lit into Rice on Thursday with bitter diatribe during a heated line of questioning before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee looking into Iraq policies. At one point, Boxer turned to the broad question of who pays the ultimate price for war. Rice has never married and has no children….”Who pays the price? I’m not going to pay a personal price. My kids are too old and my grandchild is too young,” Boxer said. “You’re not going to pay a particular price, as I understand it, with an immediate family. So who pays the price? The American military and their families.”
OK, so perhaps Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA) could have found a better way to express her dismay with Our Glorious and Benevolent Leader’s © criminal mismanagement of his glorious Patriotic War in Iraq © . Her point was well made, even if she might not have expressed her fury as effectively as some Conservative media apologists (Fox News Channel and the New York Post) might have liked. Who’s going to be paying the price for the mismanagement, the criminal incompetence, and the arrogant bungling that have characterized this Administration’s miserable failure in Iraq? It’s not going to be Rice, or the children of Our Glorious and Benevolent Leader © or the children of ANYONE in this Administration. To them, it’s an academic exercise, because they will feel directly exactly NONE of the pain of so many Americans who have had to bury their sons and daughters.
The single biggest problem with the war in Iraq, besides the criminal incompetence and ineptitude with which it’s been prosecuted, is that the people making the decisions will never know the pain of having to bury a child who’s died for lies and propaganda. They’ll never known what it’s like to lose a child in a war whose planning and prosecution, never mind the marketing and the propaganda, cannot be justified nor adequately explained.
So Condi Rice felt insulted and the White House is having conniptions over Boxer’s outburst? Big @!#$(&% deal. If the worst thing Rice has to deal with is having her womanhood questioned, she’s a very fortunate person. At least she hasn’t had to bury a child killed in this immoral and illegal war- a war that by all rights she should be held criminally liable for.
NOW CAN WE IMPEACH THE LYING, MURDERING BASTARD IN THE WHITE HOUSE?? AND HIS BAND OF NEOCON THUGS???
