| Images | Fun with Photoshop: George W. Bush & Harriet Miers | Former White House Counsel Harriet Miers is said to be one of Bush's closest personal friends, and appears given to effusive praise for the President. According to former Bush speechwriter David Frum, Miers has called Bush the most brilliant man she had ever met and says he was the "best Governor ever." She also stated that "serving President Bush and Mrs. Bush is an impossible-to-describe privilege" and noted that Bush's personal qualities "make a brighter future for our nation and people all around the world possible." [President George W. Bush nominated her on October 3, 2005 for Associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court to replace Justice Sandra Day O'Connor. The nomination was met with opposition from conservative groups and others unhappy with her credentials, and on October 27, President Bush withdrew her nomination, saying Miers had asked him to do so. On January 4, 2007, she submitted her resignation from the position of White House Counsel, effective January 31.] | Tuner | 274 | |
