Let's Tell Mikey, He'll Print Anything

What an interesting claim. It was Digby who points us to the Dallas Observer in 1999:

Early on, Rove showed he had the brainpower to go places. His sister remembers that the family used to rely on Rove's photographic memory for evening entertainment. "The game was, 'See if you can stump Karl,'" she says. His older brother Eric would read a passage from a book Karl had read the week before. The challenge was to guess which word his brother had intentionally left out.

I think Rove may be possessed of what my father would refer to as a "convenient forgetter."
