Some would say that Barbara Boxer’s comment Condi Rice was heartless or at least a little impolite. But Barbara Boxer insists she was speaking truth to power:
Boxer released a statement Friday to FOXNews.com through her spokeswoman, Natalie Ravitz, saying:It must feel good to realize that only you, a mother and grandmother, could understand familial sacrifice. Never apologize, Senator.
"I spoke the truth at the committee hearing, which is that neither Secretary Rice nor I have family members that will pay the price for this escalation. My point was to focus attention on our military families who continue to sacrifice because this Administration has not developed a political solution to the situation in Iraq."

I think Boxer is just a 'Chickenmom' who is afraid to allow any of her descendants to help protect the liberties she wants them to enjoy. Since she has no one who will 'pay a price' for military action, may I presume that she'll recuse herself from future debate and votes on military issues?
