Boxer Bitchslaps Inhofe
During Gore’s testimony yesterday, James Inhofe (R-Republic of Asshattery) was barely letting him get a word in edgewise, then:
“Committee chairwoman Barbara Boxer (D-CA) finally intervened. ‘Would you agree to let the Vice President answer your questions?’ Inhofe said Gore could respond when he was done talking, but Boxer wouldn’t have it: ‘No, that isn’t the rule. You’re not making the rules. You used to when you did this. Elections have consequences. So I make the rules.’”
