No surprise. This is the same Barbara Boxer who treats the uniformed military with total contempt.
You can find video of her chewing out a general who was appearing before her Senate committee, and who addressed her as "M'am".
That is what military protocol dictates when speaking to a female civilian politician -- just as the same protocol dictates that the general address Boxer's male colleagues as "Sir", which he did.
She coldly told him to call her "Senator" instead. What a beeyotch.
Don't you know that she is above giving anyone a straight answer? Why do you even bother asking one of the elites an honest question. First of all, they know better than you. Secondly, to her you are a nitwit.
I hate these neo-communist leftists. If they don't send the 40,000+ troops General McChrystal requested then we're slowly but surely going to lose in Afghanistan over several years. It will be Vietnam all over again. The leftists have convinced themselves that winning in Afghanistan is impossible and pointless. Just like they did in Iraq. They actually want to surrender to the 10,000~ poorly equipped and trained taliban we're fighting. Even though only 5% of Afghans support the talibam.
85% of Afghan citizens support Coalition forces. They want us there to help them to develope and to protect them from the islamofacist taliban who are FOREIGN invaders (mostly from Pakistan). McChrystal and Petraeus are brilliant military commanders who know how to win a counter-insurgency in Afghanistan. Just like they clearly proved in Iraq. All they need is the resources to carry out their strategy. We had this debate before on Iraq and the left was proven wrong and we were proven right.
Her constituents work for her, not the other way around. She is powerful, and she is to be obeyed.
The Marines, sailors and soldiers dying in Afghanistan don't mean diddly squat to her. The sooner America loses the war, and the more crushing the defeat, the better for her and the others who are intent on destroying the United States of America.
She is what used to be called a "domestic enemy".
this fucking broad obviously is a true filthy rich liberal lefty commie, living her life being shuttled and pampered & not having to deal in every day people stuff, just like scumbag Teddy who is rotting in hell right now. When they say "we" it's the ROYAL WE, as in, everybody but ME.
and so the same goes for the big O and his Marxist cronies. Oh, if anyone has a comment let me just say EAT ME
I disagree, if she's not going to send more troops, as the Generals are recommending, she should be vocally calling for them to be brought home. She wont commit to pulling all the troops out, she's running from the issue and its wrong.
her days are numbered.. welcome to Taxifornia.
