This is amazing to me. Barbara Boxer talks down to Harry Alford, the President of the Black Chamber of Commerce, as if he is 6 years old, and uses reports from the NAACP and 100 Black Men, both social groups, to try and persuade Mr. Alford’s opinion. But it’s OK, because Sen. Boxer is married to a veteran.
This is just the most incredible thing I’ve seen. Sen. Boxer doesn’t even care that she has been blatantly offensive to this man. She never even apologizes after basically telling Mr. Alford that he wasn’t being black enough and should fall in line with other black groups, even if they have nothing to do with business. Sen. Boxer doesn’t even believe he’s from California, nor that he owns land. This is so blatant and brutal, she should be embarrassed.
If she wasn’t trying to base this off of race, all Sen. Boxer had to do was explain the misunderstanding. She doesn’t. Instead, she just trys to move on and says that the study is going into the record for review since she doesn’t have time to explain it.
How can she not even apologize? Mr. Alford is clearly upset, and Sen Boxer just keeps going, ignoring the mans feelings. Her actions here are disgusting. Aren’t Liberals supposed to govern with their emotions? Aren’t they supposed to care how people, especially minorities, feel? As far as I know, Sen. Boxer has yet to apologize for her actions.
Here’s an interview with Mr. Alford from Breitbart (can’t load the video here). He’s clearly still upset, and mentions how Sen. Boxer just left afterwards. He goes right after her, and pulls no punches.
