I can't wait for their demon spawn!

first

I just choked up my dinner. I'm thinking their first child will be born in khaki slacks and blue blazer.

I'm thinking I already saw this in Rosemary's Baby.

Gotta love the classy anonymous commenters at AboveTheLaw. No open bar for you troglodytes.

Mazel tov!

Congrats. Anyone who's not a latte-sipping Obama-niac has my blessing.

I disagree vehemently with their politics, but I like their taste in photographs -- these are classic and very nice.

Why is it that ATL is the well-behaved sibling to Dealbreaker? Bess Levin would have made this story much, much funnier.

did they have premarital sex?

Is he a political hack also?

An inspiration to TTT student's everywhere. You too can humiliate yourself in front of the Senate Judiciary Com. some day alongside fine Harvard lawyers.

jesus ...white people

they're about to be powerless after the dems re-take this town!!! (DC that is)

I [heart] Pat Robertson

I smell a LEWW winner...

"Lowered Expectations" in living color...

CONTRAST, MOTHERF*CKER, CAN YOU CONTROL IT?

Wait a sec', what makes her fabulous? She was appointed (for purely religious/political reasons) to a taxpayer funded job for which she was completely unqualified, behaved disgracefully in that position, then lied to Congress.

I don't understand what part of this is good.

Any chance of getting a look at them nude?

Invest in a tanning bed....the paleness is blinding

Wait. Unmarried, no kids, and they've already let themselves go?

Now that's love. Felicitations!

Can Alberto Gonzales serve as the minister - assuming he can recall the lines?

If these two are qualified enough to marry in America, why can't gay couples? Wonder if they'll get Gonzo to officiate the ceremony before he's disbarred.

EWWWW

Well maybe they're sterile.
Oh by the by.... a degree from Messiah and advanced degree from Regency= bucket of spit.

Hey, Regency is a perfectly fine .

I found one of my degrees under the passenger's seat of Buick's finest.

hmmm,

a jesus freak and a repressed homosexual.

how RNC.

I for one wish the happy couple the best of days. May they enjoy every pre-indictment moment they have together.

And if things get rough, may our corrupt President grant one of them a pre-conviction pardon.

a consultant and a hack. K street is calling you guys.

and really, a tanning bed would be a good idea.

Why do we even have to know this? I mean, who cares?

He sure walks like a Big WOEman.

Did someone photoshop them to have the same skin tone or something? They look so pale.

I think someone also smothed out her skin. Looks really weird.

Just remember--PROcreation, not REcreation!

You've screwed the world, guys, and set the cause of justice back a hundred years. I'm sure God will bless your union.

I believe, BTW, that they're on the lovely riverfront promenade in Alexandria. I believe the building behind them is an art-gallery complex called the 'torpedo factory'.

Fitting.

I am not GAY. Never have I been GAY.
And I love Jebus too.

The other Monica. From blonde to beard. Obviously, he's never had sexual relations with that woman...

Instead of "I do" they can say "I don't recall" to the preacher.

What a pair of vapid pukes.

An inspiring union. I wish them the best, and will turn the other cheek to the hateful, vile remarks that predictably pervade ATL comments.

Bless your little heart, Fed Soc. That was a very nice comment. Maybe it would be better for everyone if instead of this mess, you just entered into a civil union with Krempasky.

I give it four years before he gets sick of her whiny voice and leaves her for Sara Taylor.

12:28: You could just have said "I am a partisan hack." Fewer words, less waste.

12:59: My guess is that they will have a *religious* figure preside over the wedding. You may not be aware of this, but this is still the way most people do things outside of far-Left circles.

bowtie daddy don't you blow your top,
everything's under control!

Fed Soc,

In the context of mere insulting language, turning the other cheek implies shutting the fuck up. So with that in mind, mother*fucker*... shut the fuck *up*.

Hey Fed Soc,
Why did you put Religious figure in quotes?
Oh, I get it, you were talking about Pat Robertson.

Is the wedding before or after her disbarment?

Hey I used to do blow with that dude!

What sort of consulting work does she do? How to undermine your country and feel righteous. Want to see that power point....

Lovely. Two prime examples of what happens when one only aspires to mediocrity -- and falls far short of the goal.

Why isn't he in the military?

Disgusting.

Monica deserves thanks for bringing the TTT debate to the halls of Congress.

But hey, at least she gave more competent, truthful and accurate testimony than her boss.

Hey, that's the cuckold couple I met at swingers night!

-GSD

Dude just got to second base in that picture.

Hey Lat -

Let's set up a fund to buy the lovely couple a gift off their registry on behalf of the loyal ATL readership. Maybe a full set of Solo cups, in rainbow colors?

@boring, I agree. DB is so much better than ATL w/Bess...ATL isn't all that interesting in comparison.

Horribly Awkward First Sexual Encounter 'Worth The Wait' For Christian Newlyweds

CHARLESTON, SC—John and Linda McCue, joined in holy matrimony Sunday before friends, family and their Lord at Holy Christ Almighty Lutheran Church, said the incredibly awkward wedding-night consummation of their love was "well worth the wait."

http://www.theonion.com/content/node/39100

@10:27 pm - LOL, funniest quote of the thread.

Nice cans on Monica, btw.

Who's this? Why should I care?

WHITE PEOPLE.

He'd be better off with Ben Affleck

studies do show that those Christian women who "wait" usually do so by taking it in small target. By getting it in the brown eye, she preserves her virginity-- so i bet these 2 are just fine, all you big jerks out there.

This might be a nice wedding to crash [into with a stolen fuel truck].

Wow - a lot of angry liberal fucks on this thread.

I"m an obama supporter from Chicago. I'm happy for the new couple. I wish them a long lasting and happy marriage, filled with a lot of kids!

For the dozen or so readers who care about how M-ling got famous, some background:

http://www.harpers.org/archive/2007/05/hbc-90000054

"Two years ago, Robin C. Ashton, a seasoned criminal prosecutor at the Department of Justice, learned from her boss that a promised promotion was no longer hers.

“You have a Monica problem,” Ms. Ashton was told, according to several Justice Department officials. Referring to Monica M. Goodling, a 31-year-old, relatively inexperienced lawyer who had only recently arrived in the office, the boss added, “She believes you’re a Democrat and doesn’t feel you can be trusted.” Ms. Ashton’s ouster—she left the Executive Office for United States Attorneys for another Justice Department post two weeks later—was a critical early step in a plan that would later culminate in the ouster of nine United States attorneys last year.

"Ms. Goodling would soon be quizzing applicants for civil service jobs at Justice Department headquarters with questions that several United States attorneys said were inappropriate, like who was their favorite president and Supreme Court justice. One department official said an applicant was even asked, “Have you ever cheated on your wife?”

No word on when the happy couple plan to have their first child, but it's expected that despite Krempasky's best efforts it will never be as popular as Markos Moulitsas'.

Messiah College? Rae you F3CKING KIDDING ME? I'll take an "elitist" from Harvard or Yale (or 5000 other schools) to run my gov't before I'll take someone from Messiah College. What, was Mall of America's law school full?

May their marriage always be protected from the gay marriages that threaten them.

While I wish the couple all the luck in the world, I must say this explains a great deal about Krempasky. His "objectivity" about the Bush administration always seemed non-existent. Now we know why.

I just threw up in my mouth.

What's the over/under on how long before she realizes he's gay?

@9:29, you also just used one of the most banal internet cliches. See, e.g., 10:15 p.m.

Ken and Barbie of the Apocalypse.

Ken and Barbie of the Apocalypse.

9:37: really? I thought I made that one up all by myself. Was it as "banal" as the story? Or your life? You love to hear yourself speak, don't you? You're one of those.

Egad, they are outside the Torpedo Factory. I got married there. I may have to burn all my wedding photos.

Lots of keyboard courage here. I'm buying extra registry presents for every one of these rude and classless comments. And congratulations again to Mike and Monica.

Lot of people out there trying to cut down the people who are cutting down Mike and Monica. I'm buying registry presents for each of those cutting down those who are cutting down.

Nice tits. Hers aren't bad either.

I wonder how long until he's caught in a bathroom sex scandal.

Those of you assuming Monica's a virgin are way off base. She's power sucked the scrotum of every male boss she's ever had. Her groom to be is in for a pleasant surprise.

A crook/liar who committed perjury and who helped destroy the US DOJ, and a closet case who is a cheerleader for the Bush/Cheney regime - are getting married. Who the fuck cares. Goodling should be in prison, first of all, and her fiance is a pasty-faced right wing yuppie - who likes Chardonnay and eats filet mignon as he watches the body count in Iraq skyrocket on his widescreen TV. They both are repulsive. PEACE

What, she's not marrying someone who wore our country's uniform? She must hate America.

C'mon everybody, let's help Gary Karr load up the gift table with love offerings for the fundy douchbags!!

I'll start: His tiny pecker is just barely lodged in her assless chaps in that bottom pic.

Who cares? Power couple? I don't think so.

How about the over/under on the number of people of color invited to their wedding?

I too will be buying many presents for this wonderful couple. I admire a christian lawyer who can put her hand on a Bible, swear an oath to tell the truth and then lie her ass off.

I really feel like this is a couple I could have a beer with.

Kyle @ 10:00 -- i dont think either one ever uttered "people of color"

I kind of figured that after her dismal showing before congress she'd be dropping out of the workforce to get her M.R.S. Hey Miss Goodling! Don't come back now, y'hear?

Messiah College huh?

I like her - she seems smart.

Seriously, Monica - do something with your hair and burn those peg leg pants! I think you need to nominate yourself for what not to wear. Your hair just hangs there - you need some style

Her?

ALL THE BEST.

Is Monica really a virgin or did she just forget the last time she had sex?

Consultant?? BWAAAhahahhaha!!!

Well, since I am certain they will not use contraception, I figure that they will be able to pump out at least 6, maybe 8 little white babies during the Obama administration.

Now that is really, really, creepy. I would imagine there is a whole lot of chaffing going on under that poly-wool blend. Here is my suggestion: tanning bed, crest white strips and lay off the process food. My last observation is based on his thick babalooo mid-section of the mister; that implies issue with sex which I doubt this couple is having very little of. When you are disbarred Monica, go multi-level. Amway is saving a spot for you.

Messiah College? Regent University? This is the educational foundation of one-half of this "power couple?"

Anyone who still believes that America is a meritocracy needs to wake the f*** up.

Oh yeah, congratulations to the happy and pale couple, or whatever.

Awww, how cute.

Children, let this be a lesson to you. Even if you are an intolerable asshole, there is still a possibility of getting married in this world!

But I have to admit that I don't quite see why other commenters are calling these two fat. They're not exactly lean, to be sure, but they look pretty normal-sized to me.

Okay, that's the last nice thing I'll say about them. I promise.

Now that is really, really, creepy. I would imagine there is a whole lot of chaffing going on under that poly-wool blend. Here is my suggestion: tanning bed, crest white strips and lay off the process food. Worry not about the morally challenged Monica. She will have a short but very successful career in multi-level marketing,

What is she, funny or something?

even a classic pony-tail would be better.

who cares about these dumpy boring nerds

Wow, their kids should be a real contribution to the gene pool. Maybe, just maybe, as intelligent as the failed administration/ideology they've helped foist on this unfortunate country.

Michael Krempasky, I want to have unprotected sex with you in the men's room at the corner of 8th Street and Massachusetts Ave.

Love, Larry

P.S. Wedding invitation arrived in the mail today.
I'm so excited I just had to go out and pick up a male prostitute.

Hey, I believe Monia Goodling deserves to have her babies in prison for lying to Congress, but enough with the Messiah insults. I am a full-throated liberal and Messiah grad who has a successful career on Wall Street. Messiah isn't Harvard, I suppose, but it's no worse than the vast majority of liberal arts undergraduate schools. It is nothing like Regency, which is a propaganda mill.

And hey, everybody there isn't a wingnut. It was against the rules, but I slept in the girls' dorm there from time to time.

Monica gurgles shemale jizz

I bet he is the sort of asshole who initials his shirt-sleeve.

bleck!

i take it there are no tanning salons down there in Old Town

Heterosexuals? In Washington?? Yea, right. Tell me another tall tale, whydontcha!!

My brother is a police officer in Alexandria. I e-mailed him their photo and begged him to do "something".

First baby will be
more darkly complected than
the father. Divorce.

Lat, how about a story on some of the careers this TTT automoton ruined or aborted because they weren't "loyal bushies."

Monica is some awful nightmare of a joke, sort of like a chemical spill train wreck in Chicago. You know people are eating it but you just can't look away.

It's a frightening shame that someone can work for the justice department of the United States with a degree from Elmer Gantry College.
I wish the happy couple all the best
But for the sake of future generations, PLEASE use condoms or just engage in good old Republican sodomy.

I just read MOST of the comments and they are PRICELESS!!! When one considers all the harm that this Monica has done, a little comic relief is more than welcomed. The Bush Admin never ceases to me amaze me with how low and far they have gone to subvert the very things - like an impartial judicial system - for which America stands.

ha ha ha Messiah College? Nuff said.
