Senator Inhofe got a lesson today. He's going to need more than one.

1. And she did it so cool and calmly......
Like sit down and STFU, MoFo. All the while smiling with a genteel demeanor.

Smackdown!!

2. priceless
I hope he never does "that" ever again. Him, along with a few of his Repub counterparts (like that asshole from Idaho) were so rude to the former Veep that I just wanted to reach through my TV and bitchslap their old, wrinkly white asses.

7. I'll bet no woman has talked to him like that
since he was potty trained.

High time one did. What a witless, pompous old gasbag!

16. No due necessary - Inhofe didn't think it was funny - he was uncomfortable & was so busted
I just kept wishing she would take that gavel and hit him on the head....

4. The CNN hairdo said it was "heated"
I thought Senator Boxer was very composed during the whole thing. She had every right to jump down Inhofe's throat, but she handled the situation in a very professional manner. Senator Boxer WAS GREAT!!!

22. "Hairdo?"
HAHA! I'm going to steal that one.

It's easier than typing "blow dried bobblehead."

12. The same reason Sen. Feingold isn't running
"The powers that be" know that if the left is given the option of a viable liberal candidate, that candidate would sail through the primary process. Then, horror of horrors, the Democrats would have to run a true liberal in the general election. What they prefer, is to have one or more token liberals to carry the Liberal Rallying Banner, knowing full well that they don't stand a chance. They garner the support of the idealogical left keeping them from becoming disaffected. Then, after they loose, the tokens will blithely hand support over to the 'acceptable' candidate.

Want to know who the powers that be are? Find out who talked Feingold out of running and you'll find their front man.

10. It truly was a beautiful moment when Sen. Boxer held up the gavel.
It truly was. Then we had to listen to the POS from OK.

It is going to be okay. I have to believe in hope.

13. That wasn't heated at all
Kinda funny actually. Even Inhofe laughed (maybe he had to).

15. Imhofe isn't interested in the truth or public service just what benefits his oil company buddies...
Sen Boxer showed class and offered a civics lesson all in one stroke. Good on her, as Molly Ivins wouldda said.

21. Can I jus say
I LOVE THIS WOMAN!!!!!

Boxer is like 5'2" or something and probably 100 pounds soaking wet but she can kick ass when she has to. And Inhofe - goddess, do I recognize that whole male shout down, macho neanderthal thing. All women do. 'Course my response wouldn't have been nearly as classy. I've no doubt a gavelectomy would have been involved.
