"Senator" Boxer lets her true colors be seen when she requested, during a report from a four star general, that she be addressed as "Senator" instead of "Ma'am". She truely believes that she is special.....that something about her gives her the right to put down a General, a man who has dedicated his life to the defense of our nation.
Congressmen were originally meant to serve their constituents for a limited time and then go back to they trades, and let someone else serve. The key work here is "serve". Our Congressmen are our servants. They are not to serve their own personal needs, but the needs of the communities or states they represent. They were not to make a "career" or benefit personally from this service. Something shifted in the attitude of our congressmen to make them believe that they are special, chosen and deserve our unquestionable loyalty. At that point America has "Royalty"...aristocrats that make decisions for us because they are "special". That is not what our founding fathers wanted....In fact, they fought England for independence from this form of government. The only way to stop this is to stop putting these people back in office.
