I thought I'd never see the day. Now Bush really IS a lame duck.

Has Rove finally come to the realization that no amount of… doing what he does… will bring favorable public opinion back to this administration?

Interesting though. Now that he has resigned, he cannot use the legal excuse of being an "immediate adviser" to the president to continue to ignore the order to come testify before the Senate judiciary committee.

Will he show up and say "I don't recall" a few hundred times, or will he come up with some other excuse to not show at all?

How can one guy not recall most things that happen in his career in one place like his most recent employment? Seems that he would lie through his teeth.

I think lying is his speciality.
