If they lied about this, what else are they lying about?

[haikugal]

1. We know they lie about everything, anything, if it seems to catapult the bullshit.

She's trolling, hardly what I'd call the actions of someone in fear.

[boomer55]

2. what a member of the elite oligarch lied?????? color me shocked

[bigtree]

3. that video is labeled #crazy

...you're lucky this isn't locked. You couldn't get anyone here to cheer on the identical thread you just posted so you're doubling down with this shit-stirring bull.

Stop attacking our Democrats, and you can go kick sand telling us that you know how Sen. Boxer felt from that video. This is a despicable effort which does not deserve a platform here at DU.

[hellofromreddit]

6. Protesting a bit much, aren't you?

Boxer was behaving like a bully who just got away with a cheap shot.

[frylock]

18. Why don't you address the brazen fucking lying?

[Hortensis]

23. A few days ago BSers were chortling over propaganda

that Boxer was terrified. I am thoroughly disgusted. This thread is a sewer.

[Dem2]

25. I agree

The childishness is getting out of hand

[ThePhilosopher04]

4. Of course she lied. It's all part of the plan.

[riversedge]

5. Drop it. You look foolish. if a person said they are scared the feeling is real. I have seen

3 posts from you so far--maybe more that I missed about the same topic. You never learn do you!

[J_J_]

7. Just trying to keep up with you all

How many posts do I see from Hillary camp with the same story, same message, almost like it was sent out in an email directive.

19. Fuck that shit.

[reformist2]

37. You look foolish. Boxer was taunting the crowd in that pic. She can't have it both ways.

[icecreamfan]

8. Yes, she lied. Doesn't look scared at all there.

[KoKo]

41. Is this where she say she "Grew Up in Brooklyn" and Knows How to Street Fight?

when she challenged Bernie to bring it on?

I clearly heard "I Grew up in Brooklyn" and her follow up about knowing how to fight...to challenge Bernie (I guess to a street brawl) but don't have the exact quote for the rest of it but what I heard was what I just posted.

So sad about BB....and those Roses that DU sent her for being with John Conyers in the Basement Hearings (which they were pushed down to) to discuss "Voter Disenfranchisement" after Kerry lost in 2014 due to Ohio Screw Up.

She was sent Roses because she was a HERO to those of us on the Left...at that time.

[notadmblnd]

9. Was she flipping off people?

If so, wow!

[tomm2thumbs]

29. it looked like she was blowing kisses sarcastically?

I may be wrong, but that is what I see - actually interacting with the crowd like at a paid wrestling match -- something one would NOT do if they were scared

[HooptieWagon]

32. In a way.

Blowing kisses in a sarcastic 'in your face' manner. Like her speech, she was giving an F-U to the crowd.

[reformist2]

39. At the end, yes she was. You don't do that and ask for sympathy for being "ohso scared" the next day

[Kittycat]

10. I respected her until that day.

Truly a shameful what she did. From her words to her actions, she lost all respect from me. So much more she could have done to address the situation, to be a leader when needed. Instead, she provoked the crowd, and fanned the flames. What a terrible way to put a light out on ones legacy. Just not the way I wanted to remember her. Shameful.

What's the saying? "When people show you who they are, believe them."

[AZ Progressive]

22. People are very good at making themselves look good, but if the circumstances are right...

You will be able to find out who they really are, or the side of themselves that they normally hide from the public.

[Hortensis]

28. "When people show you who they are, believe them."

As you say. IMO, you might want to take a look at your own behavior and that of the people you are lying with.

[Kittycat]

50. Right after you #unity gavel bang run.

[tex-wyo-dem]

40. You just echoed my thoughts exactly :(

[haikugal]

12. Thanks for the "fuck you" Babs...I used to have some regard for her, bou was I wrong!

[Nanjeanne]

13. "Shame on you" - WOW - that's some scary stuff.

[Akicita]

14. Looks like she was blowing kisses at the Bernie supporters and then flipped someone off at the end.

Talk about pouring gasoline on the fire if so. She's acting like a bully who is taunting the smaller kids after she stole their ball. More evidence that power corrupts.

[boston bean]

15. She seemed pretty uncomfortable with the treatment she was receiving.

They ought to be ashamed treating her that way. And they didn't deserve the kisses she blew out to them.

[Hortensis]

17. This whole thread is shameful.

[haikugal]

21. What happened in NV by the party is what's shameful but that doesn't fit your narrative...shame!

[Hortensis]

31. No one is entitled to just believe lies instead of

checking them out. It is every bit as dishonest as manufacturing them.

[HooptieWagon]

33. The video sure shows she was lying.

[haikugal]

35. I've checked it out and if you're saying you have too then all I can say is you're understanding is

diminished to the point of nonexistant. Repeating the Hillary/Brock/DWS line of slime doesn't make you look informed or anything approaching rational but hey, we should all unite behind Hills....not on your life. People have seen the ugly behind the carefully constructed curtain of the Third Way and we want NOTHING to do with it. It's bad for the country, bad for the people and bad for the planet.

[Luminous Animal]

24. FYI, the word of the day is "sickening"

[Hortensis]

36. No, the word of the day is "ignore."

I have a strong stomach, but I've had enough and didn't last until the primary was called. I'm on the hunt, and this sewer of a thread was useful for uncovering another five. All the people it's just too unpleasant to have in my life, the malice-mongers, anti-Democrats, liars, and people just too determinedly ignorant to be able to converse with--poof!

It's addictive. DU is already a wonderful new place full of generally decent knowledgeable people discussing politics.

[senz]

44. Oh goody, put me on ignore too, Hortensis.

Your horrifying description of the corrupt New York Democratic elite was all I could stomach.

[tonedevil]

46. Did you think they deserved...

the flip of the bird she gave at the end

[boston bean]

48. Not sure she did that. I couldnt tell. Looked like a wave.

[frylock]

16. Everything.

[annavictorious]

26. Thank you for bernsplaining

Boxer's real feelings because everyone knows that Sanders supporters are omniscient.

I bet David Brock PAID Boxer to be afraid.

[floriduck]

27. It's all in the establishment plan to go to all lengths to bring Bernie and his supporters down.

And these people want us to come to their candidates rescue. Like hell I will.

[Actor]

30. Just seeing a very tough woman responding to people who are treating her horribly

She can be tough and scared at the same time.

[Hortensis]

38. Actually, lying corrupts absolutely. We all have

trouble remembering our lies, after all. What does it do to people who make a lifestyle of it?

[AzDar]

42. Ayup. Lie, Cheat And Steal...

[senz]

43. She was having a ball.

She will regret it.

[nadinbrzezinski]

45. Well she is retiring so that is fine

she will be rewarded, trust me

[davidlynch]

47. She's looks fine--she kind of mishandled the event though...

It was a mistake to open her speech as if it were going to support Bernie, then suddenly switch to saying "Yea for Hillary, she won!"

This is either simple human error or intentionally poking the audience with a stick. I'm still perplexed. It is as if she was a first-rate actor trying to perform a lousy script that she didn't write. You've seen this kind of thing before, it leaves the audience scratching their heads.

[Peace Patriot]

49. Thank you for posting this vid. I think it's impossible to tell if Boxer is scared.

It's too dark. Her kisses thrown to the crowd could be nervousness. She appears to be surrounded with police or protective escorts. I can't really tell. And I can't see her face at all clearly.

So, in judging her behavior, I have to go back to what she did, which was to endorse a very unfair proceeding and to endorse Clinton to an audience of Sanders supporters who were incensed at the unfairness of the chair.

Given what followed in the Corrupt Media--and given its timing, portraying Sanders supporters as violent throughout the Corrupt Media as voters were voting in Kentucky and Oregon--my conclusion is that Boxer participated in a deliberate provocation, a "swift-boating" of Sanders to influence those primaries in particular and the other remaining primaries, particularly California, in Clinton's favor.

There are many things Boxer could have done to NOT be provocative, and to be a good leader as well. She could have gone to the state party officials and insisted on a fair proceeding. There were only a couple of delegates at issue anyway. It was not worth this fracas, to the Clinton campaign, if what the Clinton campaign wanted was fairness and outreach to Sanders Democrats. This was unnecessary unfairness. Why would they do that, except in the hope of making people very angry, and being able to sell a tall tale of Sanders' "violent" supporters to the Corrupt Media (which itself has been bent on evicting Sanders from U.S. political life from the day he announced his campaign).

Another thing she could have done was to NOT speak in these circumstances. Why was her speech for Clinton necessary, with so many people furious at the proceedings?

Why didn't she take their anger seriously and address it honestly? Why didn't she lend her podium to Sanders' delegate representatives, who had been silenced by the chair? Or, alternatively, why didn't she asked for peace negotiations, and lead them?

Naw, she was in on it. And it is to her great discredit. She now joins John Lewis and Dolores Huerta as fallen heroes. It is appalling how effective the Clinton machine has been at drawing people I once admired into its corrupt milieu.

51. Thanks for the video diagnosis ...

... Dr. Frist!
