No, even that's too complicated for her. In days gone by, she would have made a mediocre millinery salesperson: "Darling, that bonnet looks ravishing on you."
Funny you should mention this. Michael Savage has stated that in normal times, she'd have, at best, risen to selling bras in the Bronx.
At dinner one evening at a seafood resturant in Bodega Bay, Ca., my wife and I were seated next to a table of women ranging in age from 7 to 60+. One was Barbara Boxer (which I pointed out to my wife). Most notably absent were any men. It was probably a birthday party and undoubtedly 'ladies' night out.
Boxer's 'style' seems to me very reminicent of my sisters', while my dad was doing duty as a divorcee. My younger brother and I endured quite similar female inconsistencies and disjointed logic during this time while in Mom's custody.
How I wish Condi had hammered Boxer on the Geneva issue by illustrating the difference between soldiers (who qualify) and terrorists who don't. Boxer's mention of McCain as an authority on POW's should have been met with the fact that McCain was in uniform---and these Abu Grhaib detainees were not. If for no other reason, perhaps these 'enemy combatants' might want to find a uniform in order to qualify for the conventions. That way, our guys would have no trouble discerning who to send bullets towards.
I've come to accept that, too many of my state's constituents are a few fries short of a Happy Meal, including some in my immediate family, and that hope for this state is useless. Stick a fork in it, California is done. Unless we can isolate the urban, coastal areas from the rest of the state, that is.
