A look @ Sen. Boxer: "Call Me Senator"

Barbara Boxer demands that Brigadier General Michael Walsh call her "Senator" after he made the terrible mistake of calling her "ma'am."

Here is the original clip of Sen. Barbara Boxer telling Brigadier General Michael Walsh to call her "Senator" after he politely called her "ma'am" (which is the custom of all those in the US Military):




And now that you have the background, here is the hilarious campaign ad made in response to the above clip:




And here is another hilarious video inspired by the above:

Is this what I call it?? Is IGNORANT the right word??

Definition of IGNORANT

1 a : destitute of knowledge or EDUCATION ; also : LACKING knowledge or comprehension of    the thing specified

   b : resulting from or showing lack of knowledge or intelligence

2  : UNAWARE, UNINFORMED

That is the definition pulled from m-w.com, and it makes me wonder if that is the word I should use. The context of the word is when I am referring to those that protest, curse at, spit at, insult, anything else negative, the soldiers that fight for the freedom of America.

To elaborate, I am talking about the people that are American citizens, yet protest that all the military is doing is killing babies, and committing acts of murder. They seem to think that targets are just picked by throwing a dart at a board. They seem to think that the military has no regard for collateral damages. When it comes to that regard, I guess ignorant is an accurate word. But they continue to think this, with out being open to new information.

They don't seem to want to think any other way. They don't want to learn about a careful process that is used to select targets, or to decide if the target is worth all possible collateral damage. If Bin Laden was found in the middle of a full school of children, you best believe that the military would not air strike him. The Pros & Cons would not be worth it.

So is ignorant the right word? I don't know for sure. But until I found one better, it is the one that I will keep using.
