This was a railroad job. Moral: Never piss off the corrupt, entrenched bureaucrats.

Can't we dissolve the World Bank? Wolfowitz was forced about because he angered the corrupt people there. Why should our money go to this corrupt organization?

We have to start somewhere.

>>This was a railroad job. Moral: Never piss off the corrupt, entrenched bureaucrats.<<

There is another lesson. When your job is to root out corrupt entrenched bureaucrats, be extra careful to toe the line yourself because they will use any error in judgment against you.

This is political. But Wolfowitz still screwed up.
That said, he lasted longer than the President could have reasonably hoped for.

So what? He’ll wind up with another “provided for” position with a hedge fund, a bank, a private equity firm because all these b....... in government from every administration are all in it together.

The vote today is a clarion call. This isn’t going away. Wolfie was one of the architects of this Iraq debacle and he’s as insulated from the real world as every single politician and government official around the country in every party left and right.

If only the lefty diehards would awaken from their brainwashing, maybe we really could do something, but they are too busy reading Kos and DU to see what needs to be done.
