I personally doubt that Boxer is a racist at heart. I suspect if Boxer junior came home with wa half black love child attached, Boxer would be AOK with the whole deal and love her grand child. Just hypothetically, I don't even know if there is a Boxer Junior.

That doesn't change the fact that the tactic she used with Alford was an underhanded and racist ploy, which is condemnable. She's been getting away with arrogant condescension for years but she's always been on the politically correct side of her fembully style. It probably wouldn't have happened a few years ago because there weren't men like Alford around to call her on it. It was a miscalculation on her part.

And it is made more glaringly significant by reactions such as we see here when it is pointed out. The times they are a changing, again.
