Scootie Gets A Job

Proof that a few pesky indictments can't keep a good neocon down, Scooter Libby has found a new home. Mr. Libby has joined the Hudson Institute, a conservative think tank focusing on foreign policy and national security, as a senior advisor. He will "focus on issues relating to the War on Terror and the future of Asia".

They have issued a press release. I enjoy the purposeful vagueness of the opening:

Lewis Libby, former chief of staff to Vice President Richard B. Cheney and assistant to the vice president for National Security Affairs, has joined Hudson Institute as a senior advisor. Libby will focus on issues relating to the War on Terror and the future of Asia. He also will offer research guidance and will advise the institute in strategic planning.

[emphasis added]

Gee guys, any reason he's a former Chief of Staff? I hope for you that Fitzgerald will be generous with Scooter's time.
