10. You're right!!! But the TV schedule shows today

Strange. Very strange. They must have a former FixNews techie working on the website. LOL!

I'd heard last week that it was today (Rove had seven days' notice). Hmmm...We'll see! :popcorn:

Ooops! Here it comes! :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

4. It will be interesting to hear what they say about Rove not honoring his subpoena. The Miers/Bolton

ignoring of the subpoena was in the House, let's see what the Senate is going to do.
