I've Earned It

I still remember the exchange between Col. Jessup and the Court in "A Few Good Men" about having earned the title to be addressed a certain way.

 

It seems Barbara Boxer has let it go to her head. Here's a funny little parody:

 

 

After Tuesday, let's give her the title of former Senator. I'm quite sure she has earned that distinction.

I LOVE that movie!!! Have seen it many times. And what a hilarious parody! I love political humor when it isn't nasty, like Tina Fey doing Sarah Palin on SNL, very cute. We all take ourselves way too seriously.

Steve, this is great stuff.  When people refer to me as Mr. May I'm always looking around to see if my Dad is there.   I don't feel the necessity of categorizing myself any more than I am already.

Steve,

I've seen this parody before and its hilarious. The guy who directed the original "Airplane" made it.

It would be really nice to address her as Former Senator...  And she should like it better than 'The late... '

Nick,

Two bad Senators and a Governor also. What a trifecta! :)

I was so glad when I saw this video that I didn't have any drink near me as it would have been all over my computer had there been one near by. This video was so well done and so perfect that it should be shown every hour on the hour until 8pm tonight in California.

Funny!  Let's send her and a few more home without their titles.

Todd,

Would love to see Carly win. Boxer's term has gone on long enough. :)

Sorry...my state let you all down. I'm so embarassed! We are full of idiots surpassed only by Nevada.

Karen,

It wasn't even close which was the odd part. Maybe it's time you look for another address. California may not survive financially, and now it won't be bailed out by Pelosi and Obama. :)
