I crossed the line, but I didn't mean to. Except when I did.

"I believe I crossed the lines, but I didn’t mean to," Monica Goodling told the House Judiciary Committee.

Remember that? That was Monica's half-assed nonsense, designed to weasel out of actually admitting out loud what she did -- i.e., that she broke the law.

Crossed the line, but didn't mean to.

Well, that's not what this e-mail (h/t: Think Progress) says to me:

"[S]end directly up to me, outside of system."

Send what? Send the secret directive, revealed only last month by Murray Waas of the National Journal, directly delegating unprecedented and virtually unchecked hiring and firing authority over non-civil service DoJ employees. That's what.

Crossed the line, but didn't mean to.

Didn't mean to specifically ask that the directive be sent up to you outside of the system?

Or didn't mean to... get caught doing it?

Our own Dave the Rave puts it this way:
