The man who would be in the shadow of the King

A Cheney aide whose name rarely surfaces in either the Iraq pre-war intelligence fiasco or Scooters exposure has been heavily involved in both. David Addington, the general counsel (and ex-CIA) to the Vice President. Addington seems adept at working in the shadows a Washington Post profile (11/10/05)is of interest…

Where there has been controversy over the past four years, there has often been Addington. He was a principal author of the White House memo justifying torture of terrorism suspects. He was a prime advocate of arguments supporting the holding of terrorism suspects without access to courts.

Addington also led the fight with Congress and environmentalists over access to information about corporations that advised the White House on energy policy. He was instrumental in the series of fights with the Sept. 11 commission and its requests for information...


Now if they are looking to replace Scooter ... and they are ... we have no pic of DA .. seems a VERY shrinking violet... sound on torture .
