What do you think about Sen. Barbara Boxer being addressed as "ma'am"
rather than as "Senator" by a U.S. brigadier general during a Senate
hearing? Was this really a breach of protocol?

"Let us not go looking for insults -- or assume stupidity, which it
would be for anyone to insult a senator at a senatorial hearing.

Miss Manners assures you that "ma'am" is, like its masculine
equivalent, "sir," a highly respectful form suitable for addressing
any female, including a president, a monarch and your own mother."
Tom, my thought s are that Boxer prefers "Senator" over "ma'am"
because to her, "Senator" sounds more "butch"

Big ****ing deal... Now we have a Czar of Green Jobs snerk calling
republicans Assholes


Hey...asshole...yah...you...the one carrying the birther/deather sign...


Hey Harry did you pay your rent on time or are you still picking up
aluminum cans on the side of the road.

I'll bet you are proud as hell of Obama and his bevy of czars? It is
said that you tell quite a bit about who a leader surrounds himself with
and Obama has given us surrounded himself with a bunch of whacked out
crazies.


No one working with Obama is as whacked out and dangerous to this
country and its future than Dick Cheney, Alberto Gonsalves, and Donald
Rumsfeld were during the reign of the dumbest, most incompetent
president in U.S. history, George "What me worry" Bush.
