Congress wants to hear from Bush's Monica




Like Clinton before him, George W. Bush may find that his Monica just won't go away.

The Dems want to hear from Monica Goodling, and they will if they want to -- her pre-emptive refusal notwithstanding. Stories are in today's WashPost and NYTimes.

The pre-emptive refusal is just so ballsy!

TBM is old enough to recall the height of the McCarthy and HUAC terrors. No one ever refused to come before the Congress then, so who does she think she is.

Goodling needs to haul her ass in and sit down, under oath, on the record, and let the American people see just what sort of questions she feels answering which might incriminate her.

And if she is offered immunity, it could get real interesting.

Meanwhile, this little hotshot has fast-tracked her way from Pat Robertson's Regents University Law School to a White House apparatchick pretty fast, huh! As Rich Miles (of Logical Negativism) wrote me, this calls for a little looking into.

No one who looks that much like Tanya Harding can be up to any good. Ever.

Look behind her for a porcine thug with a tire-iron.

How perfect! This is a post about a Monica and a president and there are three bj's in my confirmation code! Too funny!
