ETA: Here is what Boxer actually said:
Quote:

BOXER: Madame Secretary, please, I know you feel terrible about it, that's not the point. I was making the case as to who pays the price for your decisions. Now the issue is: Who pays the price? Who pays the price? I'm not going to pay a personal price; my kids are too old, and my grandchild is too young. You're not going to pay a particular price, as I understand it, with an immediate family. So who pays the price? The American military and their families.

It sounds to me like the point she was making was that these decisions are affecting military families quite a bit more than they are affecting either Rice
or Boxer personally, especially since Boxer included herself in the statement. I'm not seeing the need for outrage.
However, as good ol' lovable Rush put it; "Boxer tried to lynch Rice". Nope, nothing offensive about that at all.
