What is it about first one "Monica" and now another that ultimately gets our President in trouble?

Good grief! Another "Monica" so soon? Like Monica Lewinsky (shown on the Time Magazine cover below) during the last decade. Monica Goodling (shown above with Karl Rove, Senior Advisor to President Bush) has a serious problem. Monica L. was ultimately required to deliver a stained dress to the Congressional committees looking into Mr. Clinton's sworn falsehoods; Monica G. will ultimately have to deliver her testimony to Congressional committees looking into sworn falsehoods that lead through the Attorney General to the President through (God, not him again!) Karl Rove--yeh, the guy at her right above.

Sadly, the stellar 1995 graduate of graduate of an evangelical Christian school, Messiah College, and a 1999 graduate of Pat Robertson's Regent University School of Law has gotten herself into a real kettle of fish by listening to her bosses ... who have told her "just say 'no comment' for everything" (according to her somewhat distraught mother.

Deep in my heart of hearts, I feel sorry for Ms. Goodling who must be going through some serious trauma as she is forced to either accept the "truth" as fed her by the right-wing Republicans who made her the senior counsel to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales and Justice Department liaison to the White House or accept the truth as she knows it from a really Higher Power (whom she probably previously thought was synonymous with the AG and WH).

She resigned suddenly the night before last--on Good Friday--without explanation.

My prediction is that, like Monica Lewinsky a decade ago, she will be given immunity from prosecution that will strip her of her ability to use her Fifth Amendment rights to refuse to testify.

I also believe that, even with that protection, she will tell the truth ... in obedience to a much Higher Power to whom she owes absolute fidelity.

And then, the fit will hit the shan (so to speak).
