Sen. Boxer Instructs Brigadier General Not to Call Her ‘Ma’am’
Breitbart TV ^ | 06.18.09 | Andrew Breitbart

Posted on 06/18/2009 10:37:03 AM PDT by bootless

Sen. Barbara Boxer of California instructs Brigadier General Michael Walsh not to call her "ma'am," the sign of respect shown by members of the military towards non-military ... she wants to be called "Senator," because gosh darn it, she worked hard for that position.

No further comment necessary, but I'm looking forward to them anyway.

Words fail.

The comments on the Breitbart site are pretty illuminating.

I think he should have continued to call her Ma’am. It’s not inappropriate, and she can go suck an egg.

Her mail box is nearly always full, but when I write next it will be to Madam Boxer. Madam Box?
She’s never worked a day in her life.

As much as she may want to be, she is not a male. The proper term would be Senatrix.

She is from Baghdad by the Bay.

it is times like this when i wish the senate had a space set aside for ordinary americans to watch the procedings and exercise their right to freedom of speech. this “peanut gallery” would be allowed to comment on all of the business at hand, ask questions of the senators and anyone testifying, and blow loud raspberries at any and all stupidity. can you imagine the response from said peanut gallery on that one..... singing “ i can call you betty and betty when you call me you caaalll mee al, call me al”
