In addition, another reason to be ashamed of being a Californian. The mere fact that this woman is re-elected at every end of term tells you everything that you need to know about the state.
The context of her little diatribe?
Well, the Senate has been holding hearings before Boxer’s Senate Committee on Environm
ent and Public Works, at questioning was Brig. General Michael Walsh of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. He was speaking to the Commitee on behalf of the Louisianna coastal restoration process in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. Supposedly there have been delays on such.
Anyway, as you see, Boxer objected to the General’s use of the word ma’am in reference to her. Click here for military protocol and proper use of the word. Obviously Boxer doesn’t know her history, military protocol and respect to military officers that no-doubt earned their stars the hard way. Certainly fleecing millions of American taxpayers, tearing down the institutions that make us great, doesn’t earn her any respect and ”working so hard to get her title,” shows nothing more than the sheer mockery of our republic that politics has become.

What a great pic! How did they get her to stay on the leash?
I've often wondered how Californians keep electing her and Dianne "You can't have a gun but I can" Feinstein. These women make Gloria Steinem look like a housewife!
I hope Californians will one day wake up and give Boxer and Feinstein the boot. Just another argument in favor of term limits.
My jaw dropped to the floor when she told him off. Who the hell does she think she is? "I worked so hard to get that title"?! Yeah, I'm sure bribery and deception are not a walk in the park.
That gentleman is a Brigade General of the United States military and she should treat him as such, even if he is being questioned.
That comment is indicative of what a sick person she is.
This was so petty and unbelievable! Who doesn't know that it's the proper standard address in the military? The police do it too.
Well there you have it… she's not used to respect! And now you know why.
blackandgold – These women do make Steinam look great, what a shame and disaster they are
ObamaNation – Exactly, these politicians are the precise thing that our founders fled Europe to escape from
RKL – Indeed
I am also embarrassed to be a Californian, when she opens her yappy little trap. Have all my faxes and email been WASTED?????
This is the results when Illegals, Invalids, the Dead, Out of Staters, and the Dead are allowed to vote as they are in Calfornia. Think what will happen if ACORN gets their grimmy mitts on the Census. I don't know about you, but "No habla Inglis" is a statement that comes to mind if they come knocking on my door.
I often wish I could run against her. Just state my believe and goals while my wife does the Spanish version (after all, Illegals vote here) telling how the racist Democrats are keeping them slaves to our states and to Mexican politics. Give me an honest oversight (a big if in this corrupt and dysfunctional state) and I win by at least 20 points over Frankenstien or Bouncer. Well, I can keep dreaming since it costs over $9 million just to run and have an honest chance.
oops, said the dead twice, I meant for the last one to say pets.
Boxer is one of the reasons I left my home state of California, years ago. "I worked hard," said boxer. This arrogant "progressive" hasn't a clue what hard work is. Did Barbara Levy Boxer ever wait tables? Tend bar? Run a forklift at Costco? Sell cosmetics to old liberal bags at Bloomingdales? Did Barbara Boxer ever drive a cab? manage a business? Manage an office? Work in acounting? Own a business, trying to make payroll? No! She is just another "progressive" elite who has never worked in her life.
I haven't listened to the Monica Crowley in a few months, but last I heard, she was on a campaign to vote Boxer out of office. Good luck Monica, seeing that Boxer lives in the beast of the belly, uber liberal Oakland, next door to Berkeley and across the bay from San Francisco.
And furthermore, as a former third Class Petty Officer who proudly served his country, I resent Boxer being so damn condescending to a Brigadier General!
Boxer's rant brings to mind a scene from one of the Austin Powers films (can't remember which one) in which Dr. Evil tells a shrink in the context of a group therapy session something on the order of: "Stop calling me Mr. Evil; It's Dr. Evil. I didn't go through 4 years of evil medical school, to be called "Mr."
Anyway, what Ms. Boxer's rant betrays to me is that she is emotionally insecure. A confident person would simply chuckle silently to themselves when another tries to demean.
Obviously, Brig. Gen Walsh intended no offense… probably only Boxer interpreted it as such.
I have a few choice words I'd like to call Boxer, but that's beside the point. She is a rich, arrogant liberal who can't get past her visceral disdain for the military. Had a Code Pink protester referred to her as M'am, would she have even batted a surgically-lifted eye?
First, Boxer is so insulting to the General. Then I think, did Boxer do any hard work to become a Senator? Probably not. It seems to me that as a senator she doesn't do very much good work either. Boxer needs to join Pelosi, the wicked witch of the East and fly off on her broomstick also, and let California regain its dignity and self respect.
Opus – Boxer is a sham and an utter disgrace, I agree!
Madmath – If you run, I will run a telethon here to raise money, we would do whatever it would take!
William – Indeed, these so called progressive nanny-state eltists have no idea what hard work is…..
Libertarian A – Awesome analogy to Austin Powers, I will see if i can find that and post it here..
Cube – I did too, ask my wife the words that I used when I first watched this….
Teresa – Yes!!
Beyond, she probably did no more to gain her position than agree to do whatever she was told, while showing in lesser positions she would do so. The group that brought her to power is the same group that brought Hilary and Obama, and the other useful idiots to power. To see that machine openly and actively at work, look to Illinois, and Chicago even more closely. She has earned nothing. She has merely agreed to and been a proper useful idiot.
Doom – precisely, and imagine that the useful idiots such as her are as stupid as to not even realize that they are such.
I hope she'll take some vodka, a shotgun and a moment alone in the kitchen.
There's also the possibility that she just resigns, but I doubt she has the decency to do that.
Ramblings – If so, I would feel sorry for the shotgun and the vodka, she will never resign, bitter – clingerer leftists would rather die than lose power of us….
I don't need to click anywhere since I lived it. These senators and reps should have to spend four years in the Armed Forces so they can see that their 'title' isn't that important nor is their sham of a service to this country. Term limits, now!!
Blue – I appreciate your service and understand that it is frustrating that I even have to explain military protocol, that 'ma'am' is perfectly in line with such. You just enlightened me to an idea, I am going to petition for a constitutional amendment that would require that anyone that serves in Congress or the executive branch must earn a title in the military. Think of how that would clean up the mess in Washington…..
She is such an elitist, prideful, stuck-up, scornful, hateful, feminazi that nobody takes her seriously. She gives the dog a bad name. Somebody needs to sit down at that table and hand her a slice of humble pie by telling her exactly what the people think about her and the rest of congress.
Kris – well said, I would add some very nasty expletives to that but that's not my style here, you are right too the picture of the poochie Boxer is done a disservice in comparison to this wretched person…..
Very good point. And I want everyone to know that wasn't me getting short with LCR.
I really think that boxer crossed a line just because of her hatred of the military.
