Senator Barbara Boxer, D-Calif.,demanded Brigadier General Michael Walsh to call her "Senator" instead of "ma'am". Senator James Inhofe, R-Ok, on the other hand, was addressed as "sir" by General Peter Pace on January 16, 2007. Unlike Ms. Boxer, Mr. Inhofe did not lecture the General over the issue of calling him "sir".

You can call me Ray or you can call me Jay....
Madam Boxer is a pompous ass
I call her “biotch”....
With any luck at all, nobody will have to call her Senator after her next run for the Senate. We can only hope!
My God, did you see that video? In addition to the obnoxiousness of what she did - did you see her chomping on that gum like some kind of snotty junior high kid in a government hearing? Did she ever hear of professionalism?
Saw the video. She is void of professionalism. She wants to repeal the don’t ask policy. It’s a way for her to undermine the military by getting the BG to call her senator. She never worked an honest day in her life. Her voice is annoying and everything else about her.
You are so right about the jr. high gum chewing. Lucky for us she wasn’t popping it.
If I ever met her, I would address her accurately as congresswoman.
LMAO...take some deep breaths.
In...out...in...out...
In this country the military reports to the executive branch. Some of you need to read the Constitution.
“answers to” doesn’t imply “reports”? Try again.
The General was correct. The POS Boxer was wrong.

Here is the deal. Anyone can qualify to be a senator.......However it takes tons of money and backstabbing to get there. To be a general requires insane levels of intelligence, many years of experience and a lot of respect from Superiors to make it through the selection process.
If that is not true tell the generals, don't show up for any more called hearings, and watch the manure hit the ventilation system.
ROFLOL, BS.
“Hey, Babsie!” is the perfect title.
LOL. Don't you mean Senator Bitch?
Boxer’s lucky he didn’t address her as “sir”.....
Ma’am is usually directed to a lady, hence, Barbara Boxer should be called something else.
“Lucky for us she wasn’t popping it.”
We don’t know she wasn’t. And by the look of it, I’d assume she was.
Well, she is a Boxer, and I believe a female Boxer would be called a Bitch.
BS yourself. Anyone can be a senator if you meet min age and citizen requirements. You can’t just BE a general.
Well troll, I am a 1994 graduate of the United States Naval Academy with a BS in history and an Active Duty Navy Commander.
Actually I don’t, please fill us in with all of your military knowledge about the officer corps. I could stand to gain insight and perhaps help my career along given I am such an idiot.
Ah, what “complete failure in the ranks” are you referring to? I’d love to know.
But the history degree is questionable. LOL
Barbara Boxer doesn’t mind being called Cutie by Barack. Check out the youtube that I put together.
You can call me anything, just don’t call me late for dinner....
Very good video.
Can’t stand her, never have, never will.
