Hot Air noted that the General referred to other Senators by Sir, instead of Senator, and it was only Boxer who got all angered by that title.

There was no disrespect there, except for Boxer’s nonsense.

It’s pettiness, but that’s what so many of our leaders are these days. Petty.

Old feminists never did like “Ma’am.” I’m not sure of the “reasoning,” but it seems like pointing out their femaleness is demeaning, whereas “Senator” is gender-neutral.
