Bush: "I have No Litmus Test"

Bush's first news conference since May is going on right now. A reporter just put it to him directly (paraphrased):

Q: Since you've known Miers for over ten years, it seems reasonable that you would have talked about her views on abortion, or gleaned from your conversations with her her views on abortion. Have you discussed abortion with the nominee?

Bush: I have no litmus test....

Q: But have you gleaned her opinion on abortion?

Bush: Not to my recollection, I've never sat down with her...

He was too busy talking to her about her views on the Texas Lottery Commission.
