This is amusing...

Raw story via Mark Kleiman passes on this little tidbit. Now, it's hard to know what is the exact truth here. But does anything these people do surprise you anymore. I would dearly love to examine the Grand Jury testimony in the Plame case just to confirm this story.

This is my favorite quote:

"For two years, the assistant who answered Rove's phone was a woman who had previously worked for lobbyist Jack Abramoff, a close friend of Norquist's and a top DeLay fundraiser," Salon reported. "One Republican lobbyist, who asked not to be named because DeLay and Rove have the power to ruin his livelihood, said the way Rove's office worked was this: 'Susan took a message for Rove, and then called Grover to ask if she should put the caller through to Rove. If Grover didn't approve, your call didn't go through.'"
