I think Boxer was just revealing her true personality. Why should she apologize? NPelosi never did, and look what happened to her - nothing.

Typical Senatorial stupidity across the board. The Senate and all of its members literally stink. It's evidently a Constitutional requirement.

Arrogant twit. Senator is not a rank and she does not, contrary to democrat party beliefs, rule anyone. She holds a public trust as a public servant and does not rule or hold a position over anyone, even a general. These new Nazis believe that they rule rather than serve.

Personally I think the Brigadier General and all of us should highlight the word “Senator” because is so far beneath the term “ma’am.” She DOES deserve to be called a Senator,,she HAS earned it and all the grotesque and bloated attributes of it. It’s a title equivalent to corrupt “Sleazebag” or “Little Miss Big Ego.” She should wear it on a badge! She is one of a very few who thinks it is something to be proud of. It’s pretty close to the rank of pedophile except, instead of sexually molesting children, her and her cronies have SCREWED the children of future generations by their own self-serving actions. She is truly clueless as to how she denigrates herself by the behavior she exhibits.

She can’t say anything because the first person she should apologize to is to herself, the big fat idiot she is.

Only if she were of lower rank as officer would she be called by her specific title.

I just called and told her that I was absolutely outraged that she would talk to any member of the military in her tone; that both officers and enlisted use the terms “sir” and “ma’am” even when they don’t respect the individual but respect the position. I then went on to say that she is a disgrace to California and the US Senate and that I was embarrassed that I EVER lived in California. Bitch!

Good points. I don’t even igure if it gets the same level of entitlement that the term Doctor would.

She showed contempt for the entire military when she upbraided a brig. general in a public forum as though he were her 7 year old son.

She brought shame to no one but herself.

I saw the video. It wasn’t just what she said, but also the condescending, ‘I-can’t-be-bothered-with-you’ way she said it.

I just heard it a few more times on Glenn Beck radio today, and saw another aspect. In 3 or 4 sentences directed at the general, she never called him general or sir. She was no more respectful toward him than almost calling him “hey you, bub.”

Here's the email I sent to this brainless, useless, political hack:

"Your behavior toward that Army General is outrageous. Both Army officers and enlisted soldiers actually do something useful and valuable for our country, and risk their lives doing it.

And you pitch a hissy fit because the General addressed you as m'am instead of Senator?

You owe the General an apology, as well as your constituents.

We actually need the General and his troops. We don't need politicians." /s?

Yes, let's call them "senator" and "congress person" after being sure to let them know we consider it a synonym for POWER HUNGRY WHORE.
