Second Letter to Senator Boxer

This is the second letter sent to Senator Boxer, one hopes that there can be a morally correct response to this one.


Dear Senator Boxer,
Thank you for the response dated June 22, 2009, I can say in all humility I was not even expecting a response, but I feel very much short changed in your response and have to ask firstly if Senator Boxer actually typed this or was it a member of staff and even if Senator Boxer actually saw the initial email.
Secondly where was there any kind of apology for these actions? Granted there may have been discussions with Brigadier General Walsh afterwards, but that does not propitiate the contempt and distain you showed to Military personnel as a whole during that hearing. Granted we differ philosophically on most issues, but surely one thing we can agree upon is that the military put themselves on the line daily to protect this fine country that includes you and I, but yet you appear to have no gratitude or respect for such endeavors, which I personally find most abhorrent. You were “elected” to do what? Oh yes, serve, but yet your serving appears to be only of dissent and distain to those who are serving this country.
The question I now pose to you is why will you not apologize publicly to all of those military personnel and veterans that you offended during that hearing? Does pride step into this or do you feel you have not offended? Think of the additional ratings and TV time you may get……
Ethically and Morally I feel you are obliged to apologize and your none doing so merely goes to prove that morals and ethics are not high on your principles.
Once again this letter will be published on my blog at ptmcweb.blogspot.com
