The Latest Movies from Congress
Harriet didn't show up for her appearance before the House Judiciary Committee yesterday which lead to an edifying discussion between those who did. Josh Marshall of Talking Points Memo thinks Harriet committed a felony, but, as we know, committing a felony in this administration is no longer a crime.
At least the sumptuous Sara Taylor showed up. Doesn't Sara Taylor remind you of Monica Goodling? The only information she disclosed, and that only by inference, was that she had been prepped to the max. One wonders how Sara made it so far up in the administration without the usual Christian credentials (she graduated from Drake with a degree in finance). Perhaps it's the tresses. Robert Stein writes: "Meanwhile, watching Ms. Taylor today evokes speculation about how different Paris Hilton’s life might be today if she had applied for a White House internship." Mr. Stein includes Dana Perino in the Bushie Blonde Brigade, and let's not forget Ann Coulter, though she has yet to be offered an official staff position.
As long as we're watching congressional testimony, here's the former surgeon general Richard Carmona appearing before the Oversight Committee.
