What a pompous, elitist b***h!!! She's taliking down to a Brigadier General here, a man who knows a thing or two about hard work. She say she's "worked so hard to get the title (Senator)". What??? When??? She's a socialist who won an election in California! What's so tough about that? The lowest Private in the Army deserves more respect than this elitist blowhard!!! :redmad:

Barbara Boxer: Please Call Me 'Senator'
Posted: 06/17/09
At a sometimes contentious Capitol Hill hearing Tuesday, Senate Environment and Public Works Committee chairwoman, Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA), had a request for Army Corps of Engineers division leader, Brigadier General Michael Walsh.
During a terse exchange, as Boxer pressed Walsh on why the levees in New Orleans are still not repaired nearly four years after Hurricane Katrina, she said to Walsh:
"Could you say 'senator' instead of 'ma'am? It's just a thing. I worked so hard to get that title. I'd appreciate it."
The general's response? "Yes, Senator."
The blogosphere exploded with reaction following the senator's comments, with some arguing the senator deserves to be addressed by the title she's earned through three Senate elections, and others saying it's the general who deserves a little more respect.
