"I want to say one thing about the budget that didn’t get passed, the omnibus bill. You know, we talk a lot about – we just passed this huge tax cut in part because business said, you know, we have to plan, we have to know what kind of tax cuts we have.

I saw the clip. I wondered what she was thinking of, and then it dawned on me: I think she was apologizing for the fact that the people at the Pentagon called it a >gasp< Christmas party. So she was ratting them out in a snarky, smug way.

"The Bible, the Torah, and the Koran don’t mention Christmas trees. Yet some secular zealots try to ban Christmas trees on government property, based on the doctrine of “separation of church and state” — a doctrine found nowhere in the Constitution..." Thomas Sowell
Update: She is apparently now using a "just kidding; don't you have a sense of humor?" defense of her remarks.
I already boycott NPR as well as Fox News and MSNBC.
