President Bush has found another job for his friend and failed Supreme Court nominee Harriet Miers, appointing her to defend another embattled friend, Lewis "Scooter" Libby, after his indictment for perjury. "Harriet Miers is the ideal candidate to represent Scooter in court," the President announced. "She's a wonderful Christian, a loyal friend and I know her heart. What more could you want, apart from maybe legal skills?" But Mr Libby has rejected the nomination, saying Ms Miers lacks adequate qualifications not just for the Supreme Court, but also for his criminal trial. "Lord knows, I need a really good lawyer," he explained.
