    Thought I would share

    An email that I received over the weekend.




    Some of us witnessed the arrogance of Barbara Boxer (CA) as she admonished a brigadier general because he addressed her as "ma'am" and not "Senator" before a Senate hearing. This letter is from a National Guard aviator and Captain for Alaska Airlines. I wonder what he would have said if he were really angry. Long fly Alaska !!!!!



    Jim Hill's Letter to Barbara Boxer



    You were so right on when you scolded the general on TV for using the term, "ma'am," instead of "Senator". After all, in the military, "ma'am" is a term of respect when addressing a female of superior rank or position. The general was totally wrong.. You are not a person of superior rank or position. You are a member of one of the world's most corrupt organizations, the U.S. Senate, equalled only by the U.S. House of Representatives.


    Congress is a cesspool of liars, thieves, inside traders, traitors, drunks (one who killed a staffer, yet is still revered), criminals, and other low level swine who, as individuals (not all, but many), will do anything to enhance their lives, fortunes and power, all at the expense of the People of the United States and its Constitution, in order to be continually re-elected. Many democrats even want American troops killed by releasing photographs. How many of you could honestly say, "We pledge our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor"? None? One? Two?


    Your reaction to the general shows several things. First is your abysmal ignorance of all things military. Your treatment of the general shows you to be an elitist of the worst kind. When the general entered the military (as most of us who served) he wrote the government a blank check, offering his life to protect your derriere, now safely and comfortably ensconced in a 20 thousand dollar leather chair, paid for by the general's taxes. You repaid him for this by humiliating him in front of millions.

    Second is your puerile character, lack of sophistication, and arrogance which borders on the hubristic. This display of brattish behavior shows you to be a virago, termagant, harridan, nag, scold or shrew, unfit for your position, regardless of the support of the unwashed, uneducated masses who have made California into the laughing stock of the nation.

    What I am writing, Senator, are the same thoughts countless millions of Americans have toward Congress, but who lack the energy, ability or time to convey them. Under the democrats, some don't even have the 44 cents to buy the stamp. Regardless of their thoughts, most realize that politicians are pretty much the same, and will vote for the one who will bring home the most bacon, even if they do consider how corrupt that person is. Lord Acton (1834 - 1902 ) so aptly charged, "Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely." Unbeknownst to you and your colleagues, "Mr. Power" has had his way with all of you, and we are all the worse for it.

    Finally Senator, I, too, have a title. It is "Right Wing Extremist Potential Terrorist Threat." It is not of my choosing, but was given to me by your Secretary of Homeland Security, Janet Napolitano. And you were offended by "ma'am"?

    Have a fine day. Cheers!

    Jim Hill

    Ted, Is this verified as true? Not the letter from Mr Hill, but Ms. Boxers reply to the General. If so it should be sent to every veterans organization and seniors organization in her represented area. That is inexcusable, to berate anybody in a public forum for use of a title that is used to convey respect not only in the Military but in general usage. I truly believe these democrats believe they are better and know better than the people they serve. It is time to show them the door.

    To be honest I haven't looked into it at all.

    I can tell you that it came from a guy that doesn't ever send out this kind of stuff... but who knows.

    I will look into it a little later this morning.

    Heres what I got....

    Now that I saw it.... berate may be a little strong of a word

    berate definition
    be·rate (bē rāt′, bi-)

    transitive verb berated -·rat′ed, berating -·rat′·ing

    to scold or rebuke severely

    You're right I watched the video she didnt scold him, but how completely self centered to interupt someone when their responding to a question, just so you can show the world how self important you are. Id really like to know what hard work she did to "get where she is". What a snobby *****.

    When are our Elected officials going to get the point that they are elected to do the will of the people, and as such are our servants?

    Tryin' to be the man, my dog think's I am. marine diesel service owner

    I'M all About Respect,

    Maybe a short coming. But I just about lost it, when I looked at that clip!!!! I really don't know where I'm going with this (kinda worrie's me) but it's time to put some good old fashioned FEAR into the heart's of our Servant's. One at a time will start getting there attention, I think I know which one's to start with. Lousy, useless, entitled, overpaid, arrogant, corrupt, ungrateful, disrespectable, waste's of flesh. And to think they are wasting precious Oxygen at this moment. When is ENOUGH, gonna be ENOUGH????
    My question is why didn't somebody set her stinkin' behind straight on the SPOT??? Frank

    Boxer is like Pelosi....do whatever it takes to get ahead even if it is at cost to her constituents and the taxpayer.....yup...guess she has kneepads and has swallowed to achieve her position....just like Pelosi.....

    on a bright note.....the Commonwealth of Virginia is sending an early message.....the Dems are lagging/trailing in early polls in their attempts to keep their elected political seats.....maybe 49 other states will follow their lead.....

    thats it Mr Pres and the rest of the taxing gang.....dont let the door hit you in the ass on your way out......
