Faster than a sniper's bullet, Boxer's appallingly stupid shot at the general vanished into the distant past.
One Marine's View has something to say about that, as well he should. As it happens, I noticed the same fact Maj. Pain did--in all her high dudgeon, "Senator" Boxer never once addresses Brig. Gen. Michael Walsh as "General." She never even bothered using "Sir."
Did the general work as hard to achieve his worthy title as the senator did to get hers? There's a question that deserves answering. I'll wager that the general had to exert a bit more effort than hoisting cocktail glasses and blowing hot air from a podium to earn his rank.
Gen. Walsh's bio is linked, here. Just the facts--ma'am.
