Why does the “B” word come to mind when I hear this clip? … and I don’t mean B for Boxer.

This comment section is for the readers of Ft. Hard Knox, a place for political conservatives to share information about online activism. We are not "fair and balanced," and we aren't refereeing a "free speech zone." Intelligent, funny, and on-topic comments are welcome. Trolls, spam, and liberal propaganda are not. We may occassionally approve a comment with an obvious lefty-slant so that we can amuse ourselves by making fun of it, but most will be deleted. (Why? Because we're busy, we have lives, and when we want to talk to you we'll go visit you on Digg or the Daily KOS.)
This is a private blog, and we reserve the right to make up our own rules as we go along. The few comments which manage to squeak by our censors reflect the opinion of the commentator, and not necessarily the staff of Ft. Hard Knox.
Hint: One sure-fire way to get your comment sent directly to the "spam" folder is to call us "racists" for disagreeing with a policy of the current POTUS or speaking out against terrorism.

Silly woman apparently doesn’t realize that it’s an honor to speak to a Brigadier General.
I’m sure “ma’am” was one of the nicer names Brigadier General Walsh could have thought of to call her in that moment. He was extremely gracious about the exchange.
Boxer has no idea what it means to “work so hard to earn” a title.
The term ma’am is an integral part of any Southern gentleman’s vocabulary. When broached about why I say ma’am I have a standard response. “I call all females from age 6 up ma’am out of respect … for my mother who taught me manners”. I address all females as ma’am because I am a gentleman not because they are ladies.
Boxer you have got to be the most arrogant, unprogessional, ignorant wannabe princess in the the Senate. When you go to battle and get shot at and come home with injuries then come talk to us – until then – keep your freak’n’ mouth shout MAM – MAM – MAM because you do nothing in the Senate but cry and lie and go on free trips and get free gits. Stop wasting the goverment money – or don’t you know your state is going to hell in a handbag thanks to people like you…spend spend spend…… you people in CA need to stop voting for this chick – she has lost her mind.
