Cheney Names Hannah, Addington To Replace Libby Email Print

WASHINGTON (AP) - Vice President Dick Cheney, moving swiftly to replace an indicted aide, named attorney David Addington as his chief of staff and John Hannah as his national security adviser.

Both positions had been filled by I. Lewis Libby, who resigned Friday when he was indicted on perjury and other charges in a 22-month investigation of the unmasking of an undercover CIA officer.

Addington has been Cheney's counsel and Hannah has been his deputy national security adviser.
