Boxer’s staffers…

Barbara Boxer is not one of the brightest brains in the Senate.  Her general incompetence apparently affects her staff, since it  takes two of them, with combined salaries of $149,7262222  a year, to hold up one sign which couldn’t weigh more than a couple of pounds.  Was the easel on strike,  or did they just feel disinclined to even pretend they have anything actually useful to do?
