Maybe he said “some woman” because she is one. Maybe he would have said “some man” if the senator was a man. Just wonderin’.
I hate to have to break it to you like this, glee, but up until the moment I read this post I thought you were a middle-aged guy.
Cheers!
...oh, and Happy New Year. :-)
Was it Sweinstein or was it Boxer who once told a General Officer to address her as "Senator" and not as "Ma'am"?
Everyday we a pressed toward open defiance of those in government and soon we will have only two choices and many will not choose to knell.
I doubt if it boils down to it, as he wrote such a letter, he cares to swap retirement benefits for liberty.
Another one: How does disarming me, make ME safer?
In your rant did she skip over the greeting?
Why shouldn’t it? It’s an English word.
“I am bringing 44 years experience living with a man who could sound as respectful as this man most of the time, but after what he said I began to see subtle signs just like what I see in this letter.....”
I think he would have written the same letter minus the ma’am to anyone male or female.....It just happens she is the one pushing this legislation in a hardcore fashion, and her hypocrisy in owning her own gun is enought to make you puke.....I give equal opportunity to everyone when it comes to hypocrisy and trampling on the 2nd amendment and I think this soldier feels the same way.....
No one can know who will be first. The rest of us should be prepared to march toward the sound of guns to make sure those first on the front who gave their lives for our liberty are not sacrificed in vain.
Not curious. “Wold” is itself a perfectly good, though old, word meaning high-ground forest. Probably came from the Saxon “Wald”, for forest.
it was boxer,
then he said Yes, Ma’am to answer her request.
after that he said Senator.
It’s the media that tells Liberals that they’re in the majority.
This paper examines the growth of government during this century as a result of giving women the right to vote. Using cross-sectional time-series data for 1870 to 1940, we examine state government expenditures and revenue as well as voting by U.S. House and Senate state delegations and the passage of a wide range of different state laws. Suffrage coincided with immediate increases in state government expenditures and revenue and more liberal voting patterns for federal representatives, and these effects continued growing over time as more women took advantage of the franchise. Contrary to many recent suggestions, the gender gap is not something that has arisen since the 1970s, and it helps explain why American government started growing when it did.
We want to see more letters like that publicized—many more! Infantry-related soldiers, Marines, SEALS and others: write! Disseminate!
Surely no one believes leftists care about letters like this or what the American public thinks of their politics. The left concentrate only on what they believe they can get away with. How it looks and who disagrees are irrelevant to them.
Fienstien: “I’m a F’ing US Senator, don’t address me as Mam!”
It doesn’t matter if the leftists ignore this letter or others like it, the letters help win support to our side and provide courage to resisters who know millions of other Americans have their back.
>> I am sure some form of reprisal will go to this former Marines direction.
The reprisal is already underway.
