Libby's Replacement

Via Garance Franke-Ruta at Tapped, news that Libby's replacement as chief of staff to the Vice President will be Cheney's general counsel, David Addington. And who is Addington? Among other things Garance points to, Addington is the lawyer who advised Cheney and Libby to not cooperate with the Senate Select Intelligence committee in turning over documents related to bogus intelligence they tried to get into Powell's speech to the UN. Murray Waas tells the story.

Sunday Update: More on Addington from the National Journal's Murray Waas and Paul Singer.
