I'll admit it. For a long time, I've confused Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA) with Sen. Barbara Mikulski (D-MD). Now that Sen. Boxer has had a metric ton of media coverage, I can honestly say there is absolutely no resemblance. Boxer: attractive, sleek salt-and-pepper hair, expensive glasses. Mikulski: cabbage patch doll.
Anyhoo, I think Sen. Boxer is living up to her name, and throwing a few smart jabs at the administration. First there was her effort (visciously maligned by the Repubs) to support a challenge to the Ohio vote. And now, she dares to question the SLOTUS (that's Second Lady of the U.S.), aka Dr. Rice.
So follow the various links. Considering that 58% of the U.S. population disapproves of Bush's performance in Iraq (40% approve), a courageous voice challenging the administration is welcome. More, please.
