Bush moved into the White House back in 2001, Karl Rovewho had about as much sway as an aide could havewas late for a meeting in the Oval Office. The president instructed an aide to lock the door. Rove was never late again. • THANK PEOPLE FOR COMING AT EXACTLY THE START TIME. (It's your call whether you try locking the door.)
