Regent "University"'s most famous graduate, Our Monica:
The Justice Department's former White House liaison denied Wednesday that she played a major role in the firings of U.S. attorneys last year and blamed Deputy Attorney General Paul McNulty for misleading Congress about the dismissals.
McNulty's explanation, on Feb. 6, "was incomplete or inaccurate in a number of respects," Monica Goodling told a packed House Judiciary Committee inquiry into the firings.
She added: "I believe the deputy was not fully candid."
Incredible!
I only hope that immunizing Our Monica doesn't turn out to be as bad a deal as immuninizing Ollie North.
NOTE Litle Miss Goody-Two Shoes has a voice that really grates. And she just won't stop talking!
UPDATE I missed this one:
Rep. Bobby Scott (news, bio, voting record), D-Va., hammered Goodling on her decisions to hire prosecutors who favored Republicans.
"Do you believe they were illegal or legal?" Scott asked.
"I don't believe I intended to commit a crime," Goodling, a lawyer, answered.
"Did you break the law? Is it against the law to take those considerations into account?" Scott said.
"I believe I crossed the line, but I didn't mean to," she responded.
So, is this one of these "intent" laws, where if you didn't think you were violating it, you didn't?

Instead of having the Repubs on the panel...
... wax ecstatic about Monica the Fifth as they run out the clock, couldn't they just blow on a dog whistle or something?
Alternatively, they could use the time to introduce a bill to put Ms. Goodling on Mount Rushmore, great American heroine that she is.
And what are the odds that Bush would release some Bin-Laden/Zarqawi-connection report on the same day as this testimony? I mean, really, what are the chances that another big story like that would come out the same day as this hearing!? That crazy news cycle!

Poor, poor Monica...
...shedding tears over the harvest she has reaped. Will God be granting Goodling immunity? If there is a God like they say and this list is any indication - probably not. "There are six things the Lord hates, seven that are detestable to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, a false witness who pours out lies and a man who stirs up dissension among brothers." -Proverbs 6:16-19 Operation Enduring Nightmare continues...
Question: Is Regent the only one? What about Liberty U? Any graduates from there?

A dogwhistle isn't all they should blow on
