About young women and boob shots

Now that I have your attention, think about this from Time via Kevin Drum:

Sampson then went to McNulty’s office to read him the e-mails directly. Monica Goodling then came into Margolis’ office and proceeded to break down and cry for 30-40 minutes, sobbing that she had only wanted to serve the President, the Administration and the Department. Days later, Sampson and Goodling resigned.

Garance may be worried about boob shots for young women between 18 and 21, but Monica is more than 30, and don’t you think she regrets working in the heart of evil?

I do.

We don’t need to protect young women (and men) from sex. We need to protect them from Republicans.

I think Monica (Goodling) regrets exactly one thing

Getting caught. She was crying for 45 minutes about the loss of her career. Period.

Please, can we get Monica Lewinsky back? At least she comported herself with some dignity.

No authoritarians were tortured in the writing of this post.

I agree, LB

My point is that she sold herself to the heart of darkness for a few hours of being drunk on power. She is an example of way too many young people for whom this is all a game - a game many of them come to regret.

And the ones who don’t regret it? They turn into Cheney clones.

Not a pretty picture, no matter which way you look at it.
