  • Senator Barbara Boxer: serving in the military is like being a member of Congress

    Democrat Senator Barbara Boxer has her D.C. office at 112 Hart Senate Office Building. When she wants to go to the Senate Floor, she can walk under the Capitol to get to the Senate Chamber. Or she can walk the street to get to the Chamber. Hundreds of cops are monitoring the area--plenty of protection.

    No rockets falling, no IED's to trip, no snipers on roofs--just a pleasant walk--for all the Senators, except for her.

    She see's being in D.C. or meeting constituents as "WAR"..

    "At a campaign event over the weekend in Inglewood, California, Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer seemingly equated being a politician to serving in the military - and an Iraq War veteran supporting Boxers November opponent is calling on her to apologize.


    We know that if you have veterans in one place where they can befriend each other and talk to each other. You know when you’ve gone through similar things you need to share it. I don’t care whether you are a policeman or a fireman or a veteran or by chance a member of Congress, the California senator said. [Democratic Rep.] Maxine [Waters] and I could look at each other and roll our eyes. We know what we are up against. And it is hard for people who are not there to understand the pressure and the great things that go along with it and the tough things that go along with it.”

    This is a scared person--she needs help either more police protection or better medication.

    Either way, her emotional problems are ours now. It is time for her to retire and find the help she needs. But, first she needs to apologize to all military veterans.
