From Director David Zucker "Call Me Senator." A super funny but sad look at Barbara Boxer and her distaste for our Military.
David Zucker: I remember immediately feeling embarrassed that a member of Congress would treat an officer of the U.S. military like that. And doubly embarrassed that back in the early 90's I had contributed to Barbara Boxer's campaign. I was so outraged at the pure arrogance of that moment, that I sat down to write the spot, highlighting the pure absurdity of our California Senator dressing down a General for calling her "Ma'am." No Naked Gun or Scary Movie ever had an opportunity as good as that one for pure ridicule. Never mind that the military are instructed to call their superiors including members of congress 'Sir' or 'Ma'am', including specifically, Members of Congress!
