It's about time that someone called them on it and did it to their face.
Sen. Barbara Boxer was taking testimony from Harry Alford, President and CEO of the National Black Chamber of Commerce. He was there to discuss energy policy. She makes the point to him that her energy agenda has been endorsed by the NAACP, among other black leaders, with the clear implication that he needs to get in line with the rest of black America.
His response is a thing of beauty: [Video after the jump]

This despicable woman just kept on speaking as tho the man was not there.
No matter his objection she was going to get her comments out there.
It was more than demeaning.
Saw it earlier. It was a thing of beauty.
Oh my, that was good!
Step down now you racist POS!!
Racist Barb!
Racist Barb!

Boxer tried to mau-mau the wrong guy, and he let her have it. She was so condescending I am surprised he didn’t get up and walk out of there. But he held his ground and put her in her place in a way she so richly deserved. He had every right to be offended. What she was saying is that only black people who agree with her have a right to an opinion, and to express their opinions and have them heard — completely dissing him, his intelligence and his organization. What a show. I would vote for him for something in a heartbeat. Bravo Mr. Alford for pointing out to that obnoxious woman that she is not Queen of the Universe, as she apparently believes.
Bahbah Boxer was very condescending to him in the exchange; Harry handed her head to her.
Great job.
I would like to buy Harry a beer!
We need the Harry's of the world on our side in 2012.
Here is an interivew with Mr. Alford about Boxer’s behavior.
Boxer said, basically “get back on the plantation.”
About time somebody stood up to that nasty woman.
My message:
I have no idea what your politics are Harry but I just wanted you to know that as a fellow American and Army vet you made my day by standing up to that nasty, condescending Barbara Boxer today.
Oohrah Harry!
Get real! She doesn’t believe that she’s Queen of the Universe. They all believe that Nancy Pelosi is Queen of the Universe and, for now, Speaker of the Planet.
