Who Exactly Thought Monica Goodling Was A Good Idea?

The gripe that has been bugging me for over 24 hours now is how in the hell did Monica Goodling get her job? Have you seen her background? McClatchy Newspapers reports:

"Goodling, 33, is a 1995 graduate Messiah College in Grantham, Pa., an institution that describes itself as "committed to embracing an evangelical spirit." She received her law degree at Regent University in Virginia Beach, Va. Regent, founded by Christian broadcaster Pat Robertson, says its mission is "to produce Christian leaders who will make a difference, who will change the world."

She did not even graduate law school until mid to late 1999; what qualifications does she have? Is she a member of a state bar anywhere? If so, I can find no evidence of it. Does she have ANY prosecutorial experience; again, if so I can find no record. From what I have seen, this girl does not have the bonafides to be hired as a line level municipal prosecutor of petty offenses and small misdemeanors. How did she become Senior Counselor to the Attorney General of the United States and Liason to the White House/Executive Office? This is truly amazing. Heckuva Job Brownie was fucking overqualified compared to Ms. Goodling. How did this wet behind the ears theocrat get planted in a senior DOJ position? How many other Monica Goodlings have been wrongfully planted in critical positions? The Bushies have long loathed the separating wall between church and state; is this how they are breaking it down?
