Brigadier General Michael Walsh condescendingly reprimanded for referring to Senator Barbara Boxer as Ma'am. I'd like to hear an opposing viewpoint that explains how this was a proper way to behave yourself in an official capacity at a public hearing in front of a room full of people (and cameras).

And the parody (a must-watch--this is hilarious): http://www.marklevinshow.com/goout.a...uthor/dzucker/
