What is the obsession with everyone’s gender and sex life? Senators should have more important things to do than insult each other with petty, childish things like gender titles. I am so disappointed in our lawmakers. A good high school civics class would do a better job.
Above all, I expect from our Senators courtesy and respect toward each other.
And while I’m at it, I also expect a dress code. My grandmother taught me that we show our respect for a place by the way we dress and behave there. That’s why we dress in our best to go to church and weddings and special events. Where is the respect for the Senate Chamber, the highest legislative seat of our country? One senator shows up in cut offs and sweat shirts while another insults fellow members with juvenile introductions. It’s like an elementary school yard at recess and not like an honored chamber of statesmen. Our government is in need of statesmen, gentlemen, wise lawmakers and leaders who earn respect by being respectful and respectable.
