Yes, she should say she's sorry.

For inflicting her retardation on our state......for not having the brains to pour piss out of a boot.....for acting like she's intelligent when in fact she's barely qualified to be a sales clerk in the brassiere department at Sears.

There's not time enough for her to apologize for all that she's done.

The best way she could say she is sorry is to resign. To “dress down” a member of our military in public is despicable. Especially when the person she is dumping on “earned” his star doing his best to give her the freedom to be a Senator.

Disgusting human being is SENATOR Boxer.

Conservative Republicans must learn to turn our Elephant tusks into fangs and go on the offensive.

The hard thing is to not be baited into rage, because then you are seen as the aggressor. It's not fair or easy, but steady focus on the facts of their abuse, and calm, unceasing descriptions of their own hypocrisy must be made against a torrent of filth and garbage that pour from liberals, while they wait for the one speck of irritation to show in their abused targets.

The more people practice this, the less acceptance of the garbage will be tolerated, until it is finally "seen" for the massive aggression it really is, and stopped as it should be right off the bat. It is not in any way an equal situation, and they count on that with everything they've got, because their actual positions are indefensible and they know it.

Is anyone else sick of this phony, “save your ass” apology crap, as it means nothing. Let her comment stand on it’s own.

I think the best attitude to the whole thing is Senator Boxer has just stated that she is NO LADY. That seems reasonable to me.

There are dozens of ways to address Boxer, Senator and Mama are not on that list. In fact, I can’t post my list.

No. I hate fake apologies.

I would like to see her voted out.

“....to “dress down” a member of our military in public is despicable. Especially when the person she is dumping on “earned” his star doing his best to give her the freedom to be a Senator...”

Well said.
You do not slam a General in public the way she did.

The really obnoxious part of the statement was telling a General how “hard I worked for that title.” Can you imagine saying that to a military man, who has seen and heard of battles that lasted for days, in foxholes, beaches, and ships, watching their brethen die for freedom so that bitch can have the title “Senator” and the cushy job that comes along with it.” She is disgusting.

Absolutely NOT!

It is a basic part of military culture to say “sir” and “ma’am” to every civilian, especially while a serviceman is wearing his uniform and speaking for his service. A maggot like Boxer, who has never served a day in the military, would never understand this. You would think a US Senator would at least have a clue. But no, not Boxer. Boxer is a simpleton, a freaking idiot.

Boxer’s behavior is exactly the kind of boorish behavior you should expect from the most stupid human being to ever set foot in the Capitol Building.

NO WAY should this p.o.s address a general, or a private for that matter, in any way - - not to say “I’m sorry,” or anything else. Boxer needs to stay as far away from the defenders of America as possible.

The only time an apology is worth anything is when the person does it immediately — and with sincere heart -—without having to be made to give one.

An apology now is as meaningless as those who confess to being really sorry for hurting others — after been found in a sex or business scandal and outed by others.

She’s an idiot. I lived in her district when she got her start and she was basically a lefty soccer mom who somehow had enough of a cushion (tolerant husband, I would assume) to get ahead.

She’s always been a raving flake and I was surprised that she made it as far as she did, even in California - except that you have to realize she was living in an area where towns forbade the wearing of deodorant because the scent might provoke the “chemically sensitive,” and people wrapped their telephones in tinfoil so the rays couldn’t get to them.

I think all the officers in the army that take offenses at the request should send her a letter and tell her to go to hell, be sure to include your rank and post address. Petty is as petty does!!

We already know she’s a hack, but unless she’s gotten a bill through Congress changing military terminology, she’s still a ma’am ~

What is it with these “apology” requests/demands? What the hell is an apology worth, coming from vermin like Barbara Boxer, David Letterman, all of them? Such a candy-ass approach to answering such a destructive opposition. Apologies. Gimme a fricken break. They need to feel significant ramifications. And by ‘feel’ it, I mean ‘feel’ it.

It would have been hilarious if a Republican Senator, after that exchange, said: "General I want you to quit calling me "Sir" and call me "most arrogant one". Then burst out laughing.
