It is perfectly acceptable to call a male Senator “Sir” is it not?
What an egomaniac!

See I disagree that’s a reasonable request I would think. “Sir” and “Ma’am” are generic terms, we refer to Senators, Congressman, and Presidents by title.

She worked hard to earn another title—bitch.
To: pissant
Did she call him “General” or ‘boy’?
To: pissant
Mrs. Boxer, as one of your constituents, there are several things I’d like to call you and “senator” is not one of them.

There is no regulation, rule or law that requires this or any other deference with regard to our so-called “public servants”.

Not if you are military. You call the President ‘sir’. If it’s good enough for Potus, its good enough for old, wannabee sex kitten.

She worked hard to earn another titlebitch.Actually, it was very easy for her.
To: pissant
To which he should have replied, “Certainly, Senator. And would you please address me as ‘General’? I’ve worked hard for that title, too.”
To: All
Trust me Boxer, among intelligent people, who pay attention to current events, “ma’am” is a much more complimentary salutation then the odious “Senator”.

OK, I’ll say it. SENATOR Boxer is a f***ing idiot!
She is also a supercilious, small-minded, self-centered harridan.
Boy, now there’s a word you don’t often see.
