Interview with Black Chamber CEO on Confrontation with Boxer: "It was vile Jim Crow" - Video 7/16/09

Here is an exclusive interview done by Breitbart TV's "The B-Cast" with Black Chamber of Commerce CEO Harry Alford this afternoon about his confrontation with Democrat Sen. Barbara Boxer concerning what he described as her "condescending" racial remarks to him as he testified on the Cap and Trade Bill.

In this interview, Alford said it was "like being in Mississippi in 1945," and described her treatment of him as, "it was vile Jim Crow." Alford was particularly insulted that Boxer was countering his well-researched, documented testimony with a series of quotes and resolutions from "African-American" sources, as if he should be dismissed just because he did not line up with what she seemed to think should be the party line all African-Americans should tow.

Interestingly, Alford said he heard today by email from Gen. Michael Walsh, whom Boxer was insulting toward several weeks ago when he politely referred to her as "Ma'am" during testimony before her committee, to which she instructed him to call her "Senator." This despite the fact the General was following military protocol by referring to her as "Ma'am." You can see that on video below . . . . . (See videos)
