| 43. Maybe Ms. Goodling just couldn't balance the demands of her job in |
|
Washington with her overriding impulse to join a bowling league back home.
Too many people calling her up, taking chunks out of her schedule.
So she had to just sit down one day and ask herself which set of people is owed her allegiance?
The sacking of the 8 US Attorneys? Oh, of course not. This has NOTHING to do with any of that.
It's all about the bowling. The sounds of the balls smashing into the pins, a cheesburger, fries and Coke, the laughter of her fundie pals back home.
Nostalgia rides a tall horse.
