This Woman Was Responsible For Hiring US Attorneys?????

Was the head of FEMA position not available?

Is there any standard of competence in the Bush Administration train wreck?

Is the sole qualification for employment in the Justice Department graduation from a fundamentalist Christian college and a strict GOP voting record?

Is Monica "Moon Unit" Goodling really Frank Zappa's long lost daughter?

Good grief....every day it gets more embarassing for this poor country.

Rep. Bobby SCOTT: Did you break the law? Was it against the law to take those political considerations into account? You’ve got civil service laws. You’ve got obstruction of justice. Were there any laws that you could have broken by taking political considerations into account, quote, on some occasions?

Monica GOODLING: The best I can say is that I know I took political considerations into account on some occasions.

SCOTT: Was that legal?

GOODLING: Sir, I’m not able to answer that question. I know I crossed the line.

SCOTT: What line — legal?

GOODLING: I crossed the line of the civil service rules.

SCOTT: Rules? Laws. You crossed the law on civil service laws. You crossed the line on civil service laws, is that right?

GOODLING: I believe I crossed the lines. But I didn’t mean to. I mean, I…

SCOTT: OK.

Hey, she said she didn't mean it!

Move along Representative. Nothing to see here.
