She's baaaaaackkkkkk

Just when Messiah College alumnus-from-hell and ex-West Shore Country Club lifeguard Monica Goodling ("Monica who?") was slipping off the public radar screen, along comes NPR to drag the pride of central Pennsylvania back into the national spotlight.

NPR reported today that the Justice Department Inspector General is investigating whether Goodling, then a senior counsel in the Justice Department, forced out attorney Leslie Hagen after hearing rumors she was a lesbian. Hagen had outstanding job evaluations and is said to be a loyal Republican, but that apparently wasn't enough for Goodling. So on a day when she didn't have any disloyal U.S. Attorneys to fire, out went Hagen, or so the story goes.

Which will surely distress an acquaintance of mine on the Messiah faculty who expressed hope not long ago that the world had seen the last of Ms. Goodling.
