Boxer was one of 13 Democrats voting to bounce Sen. Joe Lieberman from his chairmanship of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee -- 42 Democrats, including Sen. Dianne Feinstein voted to retain Sen. Lieberman as chairman.

As if we needed more evidence that Sen. Boxer is extreme and vindictive.

From the Contra Costa Times blog:

But even though Obama himself reportedly supported Lieberman, it seems U.S. Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., was among those voting against him today. "The resolution did not reflect Senator Boxer's belief that Senator Lieberman should remain in the caucus but not retain his full Committee Chairmanship, and she voted accordingly," Natalie Ravitz, Boxer's communications director, told me today.
