Rice appeared before the Senate in defense of President Bush's tactical change in Iraq, and quickly encountered Boxer.
"Who pays the price? I'm not going to pay a personal price," Boxer said. "My kids are too old, and my grandchild is too young."
Then, to Rice: "You're not going to pay a particular price, as I understand it, with an immediate family."
I'm very surprised though that the article mentions the fact that if this had come from a Republican to a Democrat, or from a man to a woman, there would have been hell to pay. Glad to see that some people in the media are willing to point out a little bit of hypocracy. :) This was a low, personal shot at Ms. Rice and I think she would be correct in asking for an apology. Democrats have asked for apologies for a whole lot less.
