While Bush doesn't face legal jeopardy from the statements of I. Lewis ``Scooter'' Libby, as outlined in court documents filed in the Central Intelligence Agency leak investigation, Democrats and other critics quickly seized on the testimony as evidence that Bush hasn't told the public the full truth.
Schumer, a New York Democrat, said he sent letters today to Bush and Cheney demanding ``a quick and clear explanation'' of Libby's testimony.

Addington became Cheney's chief of staff when Libby resigned after his indictment.
