McNulty responds to Goodling.
“During her testimony today, Monica Goodling pointed the finger squarely at Deputy Attorney General Paul McNulty, saying that he had not been ‘fully candid’ in his testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee about his knowledge of White House involvement in the U.S. attorney firings (McNulty had earlier pointed the finger at Sampson and Goodling for not informing him of the White House’s role).” McNulty released a statement this afternoon, saying Goodling is wrong:
I testified truthfully at the Feb. 6, 2007, hearing based on what I knew at that time. Ms. Goodling’s characterization of my testimony is wrong and not supported by the extensive record of documents and testimony already provided to Congress.

And there are the ones that Greg Palast has! I am sure that there is DAMNING evidence for everyone involved in there, and we are just going through the motions in order to flush out the perjurers!
This is FUN!
May 23rd, 2007 at 7:07 pmtranslation = Ms. Goodling is wrong. But in case she’s right I had this cool sounding statement I prepared to release and here it is…
May 23rd, 2007 at 7:13 pmMs. Goodling must have been so frustrated when she heard Kyle Sampson’s testimony of “I don’t recall”. I can just hear what she said to herself. “Shit I really blew it by pleading the fifth and making a fool out of myself. I should have done what Kyle and Alberto did, say “I don’t recall” and “I don’t remember”. And then she did just that.
She committed a crime and she needs to be arrested, booked and then prosecuted for the crime. And if she didn’t know what she was doing was a crime, she has no business being an attorney.
May 23rd, 2007 at 7:24 pmIn her testimony today before the House Judiciary Committee, former DOJ White House liaison Monica Goodling joined Alberto Gonzales, Kyle Sampson and Paul McNulty in disclaiming any role in the creation of the infamous list of U.S. attorneys to be fired. It should comes as no surprise that the graduate of Regent University law school would have us believe the list so central to the prosecutors purge appeared magically, untouched by the hands of man. Call it Immaculate Conception.
For the details, see:
“Monica Goodling’s Immaculate Conception.”
For the latest news, document dumps, email archives, hearing transcripts and other essential materials in the firings of U.S. attorneys, see:
May 23rd, 2007 at 7:31 pm“The U.S. Attorney Scandal Documents.”
Monica Goodling admits that she considered political affiliation in hiring career employees at the Justice Department but then says she didn’t mean to break the law. This is contradictory. If she considered political affiliation in hiring then she made a conscious decision to break the law.

Well-played, CB, well-played indeed.
May 23rd, 2007 at 7:40 pmIf she’s lying her immunity grant should be voided!
May 23rd, 2007 at 9:33 pmThe congress is not going to get any truth untill they follow the CIA’s lead and get their own secret prisons and use proven, approved and acceptable interrogation methods.
May 23rd, 2007 at 10:57 pmWhat would Gonzo admit to on “the board”…….
Piranhas’ pool feed frenzy!
