OMFG - Cheney clone Addington is taking over the legal division of the Heritage Foundation
http://www.politico.com/blogs/under-the-radar/2013/01/cheney-aide-addington-rises-at-heritage-153310.html<snip>
David Addington, whose name became synonymous with an expansive view of executive power during President George W. Bush's administration, is taking over the legal division of the conservative Heritage Foundation.
The foundation announced Thursday that Addington, 55, a former counsel and chief of staff to Vice President Dick Cheney, will head up Heritage's Center for Legal and Judicial Studies starting Feb. 1.
The current head of the center, former Reagan administration attorney general Edwin Meese II, 81, is "semi-retiring," Heritage announced. The group named the legal center after Meese last year.
The right-leaning think tank grabbed headlines last month when Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) declared that he was resigning his seat to become president of Heritage in April.
