Senator Boxer Endorses Socialist Bernie Sanders

The Burlington Press reports:

Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., told a Monday rally in Burlington that Democrats must win control of the House and Senate to restore the system of checks and balances between Congress and the White House.

"That's what the founders wanted," she told a noontime crowd of 300 supporters of independent Senate candidate Bernie Sanders at City Hall. "It was King George then, and now we've got another one who doesn't care about Congress."

Boxer, serving her third term in the Senate, said the country has been harmed by a Republican-controlled Congress that has become "subservient, a rubber stamp," for President Bush's policies.

"Bernie, I cannot wait to hear your sweet tones on the floor of the United States Senate," Boxer said as Sanders grinned.

No word yet when Senator Boxer will admit she's a socialist.At least Comrade Sanders is up to the task.
