One wonders why the Grand Jury, according to Cooper, spent so much time on the subject of whether he'd discussed welfare reform.
This sounds like a panel that is out of control of the prosecutor because Fitzgerald would NEVER linger on these minor differences of remembrance, especially when there are contemporaneous notes of it in Rove's email.

One may wonder until one notes your key phrase: "according to Cooper". His credibility is zilch. I'm sure the topic came up. I'm sure it was not the centerpiece of the questions he faced except to satisfy themselves they were being confronted with a bold-faced liar as they knew they had documentation such you cite that demonstrates Rove's superior memory and truth-telling.
Remember, these reporters were compelled by judges to testify and so far it's been unanimous their testimony is necessary and is not a fishing expedition.
From the news reports, it sounds like the folks on grand jury focused on two things in the Cooper testimony:
1) Was welfare discussed?
2) What is double secret probation?
This is scarey.
