CA-SEN Update: Why it Sucks to Be Barbara Boxer – Part 3, Chamber of Commerce Lights her on fire

And since Barbara Boxer has voted against restoring the water to the Central Valley… there is nothing to put her out with.

This is another one of those Green storms.

No Dams have been built in California in years. As a result – there is inadequate water storage – which forces farmers to have to get water from the delta.

A federal judge (appointed by Clinton of course) shut off the water to the south valley on account of the delta smelt. He ruled that the delta smelt should get the water first before the farmers because it is a “threatened” species.

Meantime – the USA is importing food and has almost nothing to send overseas to starving countries.

That’s Green for you and Barbara Boxer is as Green as a Gord.

Meantime the US Chamber of Commerce dumped a wad in to Television ads lighting Boxer up over her extremism.

Check out the LA Times story.

P.S. It sucks to be Barbara Boxer. 28 years in office and she is in the fight of her life. But don’t feel sorry for her – she has voted so many times to raise her own pay and benefits that she’ll be fine in retirement.

CA-SEN Update: A Panicked Boxer Clings to her Barney and Maxine Dolls

Let me get this straight – you’re feeling a sense of panic and foreboding so you get Barney Fwank and his partner “Jim” (Fwank’s words, not mine) to come out to California on a vacation to raise money for you?

(Scroll down to read the snippet about Congressman Barney Frank coming to California with his partner)

Let’s hope that Congressman Fwank’s only skeleton is the Homosexual prostitute he had on the Federal payroll…

Boxer’s other good friend – Maxine Waters just went the way of Charlie Rangel. Except that Maxine Waters is counting on the Democrat majority to whitewash her ethics charges. (She requested a trail before Congress on her rap sheet)

And Boxer believes that Carly Fiorina’s comments about her hairdo should outweigh any other transgressions. In fact, we are all supposed to forget that Boxer was calling Fiorina out while Fiorina was still in the hospital recovering from Brest Cancer Reconstructive Surgery!

But when you’re a Democrat, it is operation “Permanent Victim”.

Voters are going to sigh and roll their eyes as they vote to fire Boxer. Note to Congressman Fwank and Calbuzz – quit whining while you’re getting your ass kicked. It only makes it easier to blog about you. (BTW – Boxer’s hairdo is a museum peice – either hook her up with John Edwards crew for a $500 update or maybe the guy that did Clinton’s hair while holding up air traffic at LaGuardia?)

I can’t believe I am offering Barbara Boxer advice…

But there is absolutely no therapy for the connection between proven scum Maxine Watters and Barbara Boxer:

For most of us, “Boxer” is a name synonymous with liberalism and perhaps a certain daftness, as opposed to corruption. Yet it turns out that Boxer, who has benefited from significant support from Waters in previous elections like, say, that of 2004, has been quite happy to pony up the cash to Waters’ daughter in order to snatch a spot on the LA Vote sample ballot. Per Art Levine, writing for the American Prospect in 2005:

In last November’s election, Waters’ congressional campaign committee handled the slate-mailer operation under tighter fund-raising restrictions. Yet most candidates and initiative campaigns still paid more than $ 85,000 to get on it, according to Federal Election Commission (FEC) records. Senator Barbara Boxer’s campaign was the most generous, paying $25,000 to the Waters committee.

(Read the whole story for context here)

Can you feel the desperation? The Democrats are only going to come even further unscrewed as their grip on the reins of power fades.

For Barbara Boxer, being surrounded by freaks and scum is far worse than a lousy haircut. Especially when you have to call a cancer patient out of the hospital the day after her surgery to try and score points.

P.S. It is an embarrassing double standard. John Doolittle was exhonerated 6 1/2 years later and he was assumed to be guilty until the investigation was dropped. In contrast, Maxine Waters and Charlie Rangel had the media and fellow Democrats running interference until the stench was so great not even they could stand it anymore.

CA-SEN Update – Unemployment Numbers foreshadow Boxer’s Unemployment?

Tell me something.

Boxer left 20% of her own party behind in the Primary vs two opponents that had zero money.

First off – quoting a previous post about Barbara Boxer’s Primary Numbers:

   Election Day Support Unemployment Rate
   Kern 66.7% 16.5%
   Tulare 65.8% 16.9%
   Kings 63.4% 16.8%
   Fresno 73.0% 16.9%
   Madera 65.1% 16.3%
   Mariposa 74.0% 12.2%
   Merced 67.5% 19.9%
  Stanislaus 67.3% 18.3%
STATEWIDE AVERAGE: 80.4% 12.6%

Something about a slimy sardine in the Delta taking precedence over jobs?

even back in 1997, the Media kenw who Boxer was (while endorsing her of course):

San Francisco Chronicle: “Partisan, liberal, and with a reputation for grandstanding, Boxer has long been regarded as the most vulnerable of incumbents.” (Marc Sandalow, “Boxer Now Seen As A Heavyweight,” San Francisco Chronicle, 3/2/97)

And Boxer made some campaign stops recently – so let’s OD on some more stats:

21.7% Underemployment rate in California.

Some 71,600 People Are Unemployed In The Fresno Area. (“Fresno County Profile,” Employment Development Department, Accessed 7/6/10)

Unemployment In The Stockton Area Has Increased To 16.2 Percent, From 15.3 Percent In February 2009. (“Historical Data for Unemployment Rate and Labor Force (Not Seasonally Adjusted) in San Joaquin County,” Employment Development Department, Accessed 7/6/10)

11,300 More People In The Sacramento Area Are Unemployed Today Than When The Stimulus Passed. (“Historical Data for Unemployment Rate and Labor Force (Not Seasonally Adjusted) in Sacramento County,” Employment Development Department, Accessed 7/6/10)

Barbara Boxer said the Stimulus would deliver 400,000 new jobs. Whoops.

P.S. What was that General thinking when he called her Ma’am, anyway?

CA-SEN Update: The 12.7% Problem for Barbara Boxer

That’s 12.7% unemployment – which we all know is low, since the official Obama/Boxer number conveniently omits those who have given up their job search and those who are underemployed.

Even using their own artificially low numbers – since the passage of the “Stimulus”, unemployment has gone from 10.2% to 12.4%.

We spent ourselves in to oblivion – 3 trillion dollars worth and counting – to get worse.

And like a cult member, Barbara Boxer clings to her Golbal Warming and Economic Stimulus.

2.27 Million Californians unemployed – that are actually looking for work

21.7% Underemployment Rate

11 of the 13 worst Metro Areas for unemployment in the Country.

All this and Boxer’s remarkable leadership sees California get 79 cents on the federal tax dollar back.

Construction Projects Like The Presidio Parkway Provide The Backdrops For Political Press Conferences But Haven’t Necessarily Helped The Unemployment Picture. “Highway projects have been the public face of the president’s recovery efforts, providing the backdrop for news conferences with workers who owe their paychecks to the stimulus. But those anecdotes have not added up to a national trend and have not markedly improved the country’s broad employment picture.” (Matt Apuzzo and Brett J. Blackledge, “AP: Road Projects Don’t Help Unemployment,” The Associated Press via The Daily Breeze, 1/11/10)

AP Analysis: “A Surge In Spending On Roads And Bridges Has Had No Effect On Local Unemployment…” “Ten months into President Barack Obama’s first economic stimulus plan, a surge in spending on roads and bridges has had no effect on local unemployment and only barely helped the beleaguered construction industry, an Associated Press analysis has found.” (Matt Apuzzo and Brett J. Blackledge, “AP: Road Projects Don’t Help Unemployment,” The Associated Press via The Daily Breeze, 1/11/10)

Maybe Barbara Boxer will visit El Centro (if she can find it on a map – she is so rarely out of the areas where her donors are) and offer some stimulus-aided comfort to a city with a staggering 27.3% unemployment rate.

Or will she visit the southern Central Valley with areas even worse off than El Centro?

Or – perhaps she is afraid people in the Southern Central Valley will throw rubber worms at her in protest?

If Boxer decides to hold court in Sacramento – she will be within sight of Yuba City – home of the 3rd largest rate of increase in unemployment in the nation… a city that now sits at 19.3%. (having been through there recently, all kinds of businesses are closed)

And, Boxer said we’d got 400,000 jobs out of this? (That was even after her buddies in the eco-movement sued to shut the water off to the Southern Central Valley)

P.S. Don’t call Barbara Boxer Ma’am, either.

CA-SEN Update: Setting the Record Straight on HP From Former HP Senior VP Bill Mutell

Former Hewlett Packard Senior Vice President Bill Mutell Sets the Record Straight on Fiorina’s Accomplishments

SACRAMENTO, CA – Former Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing and Global Lead for Government, Health and Education markets for Compaq and Hewlett Packard Bill Mutell today issued the following statement regarding Senator Barbara Boxer’s recent unfounded attacks on Carly Fiorina’s record at Hewlett Packard:

“Carly Fiorina’s tenure at Hewlett-Packard and her leadership of the company through the worst technology recession in a generation was undoubtedly a success. When Carly took the helm at HP, it was well known in the technology industry that, without new leadership that shook up its stagnating culture, the company would have lost its competitive edge and might even have become obsolete.

“I watched as Carly made the tough – and frequently unpopular choices – necessary to transform HP into a market leader. Despite opposition from all sides, she never wavered in her commitment to pursuing what was in the best interest of the company’s long-term health and success. In the end, HP came through the dot-com bust a stronger, more profitable and more innovative company.

“Barbara Boxer, on the other hand, knows nothing about what it takes to run a company in the 21st century. While she continues pushing for bigger government and more than a trillion dollars in higher taxes, companies are struggling under the weight of burdensome regulations and are unable to grow, expand and hire new workers. Under Boxer’s watch, our state and our nation’s economy is headed down the wrong path – and that’s why we need Carly Fiorina to replace her in the U.S. Senate.”
