UPDATED JULY 16, 2009: Thank Odin and all the holy gods for the invention of YouTube; otherwise, jewels such as this would be lost. Here is Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA) reading notes off a teleprompter and telling us about a book obviously written by another, who is noted in small print on the cover, and Babs, the "co-author" in large letters. She is trying to explain the plot to us, but winds up talking about herself mostly. She probably has not read the book. Thanks again to the world's dumbest senator for some real entertainment. Thank you, ma'am!

ORIGINAL COMMENT: Most stupid U.S. Senator now sitting and in the finals for the most stupid Senator of all time in the USA. Watch her on C-Span if you don't believe me. She is unbelievable.

Californians should wear a sack over their heads for sending her to Washington. If you are going to elect a senator, elect someone with brains regardless of political beliefs.

Barbara Boxer reminds me of a dumb kid (yet ill-intentioned) whom the smarter kids often goad into doing horrendous acts of stupidity like cutting a tree limb down while she's on the hanging end of it; or the one dumb kid who, because motor oil looks like maple syrup, puts in on her pancakes. Boxer is, simply, an astonishingly stupid person who happens to find herself in a very esteemed office, and of which she has no idea how to act in a gracious manner- nor does she have a clue about real life (referring to herself as a hard worker in comparison to those who have done far more to get to their station of life, unlike herself). She's arrogant, cocky, abrasive, pretentious, and yet sorely lacking in tactfulness nor any semblance of intelligence to back her self-importance.

Compare her to other female U.S. Senators (like her colleague Dianne Feinstein, a far more intelligent and effective lawmaker), and its no contest. Hands down the dumbest U.S. Senator alive, regardless of gender or party affiliation. Boxer is embarrassment to everyone except the far left in California, whom let her audacity and ignorance slide every Senate election cycle.

She just kicked my Senator's a$s BIG TIME! I LOVE this woman!

Thank God she'll be chairman of the Senate resourses commitee rather Imhoff of OK.
