World Bank President Paul D. Wolfowitz publicly apologized yesterday for the "mistake" of personally orchestrating a high-paying job and guaranteed promotions for a bank employee with whom he is romantically involved, as new details of his role in the arrangement emerged and staff members angrily demanded his resignation.

And here was I thinking that Wolfowitz was one of the "brains" behind the neo con revolution.. turns out his brains are in his pants :2razz:
He should resign, no way any nation can trust him to lead the organisation when he has done something like this.

Like Clinton did when he got caught in a romantic involvement and was using his position to gain her favor?
Did Monica get promoted to Chief of Staff or did she remain a lowly intern?
No he used then UN Ambassador Bill Richardson to search for a high paying job for her. He finally turned to Vernon Jordan to do him the favor.
Did Wolfowitz promote his love to Chief of Staff? No, he told the board of the World Bank they had a relationship, as he should have, and they suggested she leave, so he helped her get a job in the US Government where he had contacts.

So what was the plum job that she landed?
As I recall she ended up with an ad firm somewhere making 6 figures. Why does that matter?

Bank insiders confirmed reports from the bank's staff association that Wolfowitz directed personnel officials to give Shaha Riza, his longtime companion, an automatic "outstanding" rating and the highest possible pay raises during an indefinite posting at the State Department, as well as a promotion upon her return to the bank.

I dont care if had an affair.
I do care if he used his influence to get his "love" special treatment and that is exactly what he did.
I must give you credit for your inventiveness, but a lie is still a lie, as it applies to how Wolfowitz used his position to influence her career.
Some ad agency, huh?. :rofl
A employer giving special treatment to someone he knows personally? Stop the presses. :roll: Was she unqualified for the position? When in said position did she perform poorly?
Source? Just who are these bank insiders?
Trajan, she no longer works there but is being paid over $190,000/year by the World Bank.
Is it too late for me to make a move on Wolfowitz? I can make more money NOT working than I do working.
From the OP's link. Are you telling me that you post without reading the links provided?
Though I have no doubts that Clinton did try to use his influence to land her a job, I don't recall it coming to fruition. Regardless, it was not a conflict of interest as it was not a White House job, correct?
So let me return the question. Why did you mention it?
So basically, you're saying your post doesn't matter. And for once, I agree with you.
Sorry, Honey, you're gonna have to fight me for him.

Do you think she was not "working" at the World Bank, where she was working BEFORE Wolfowitz got appointed there by our government? She is at the state departement because she was forced to leave her job at the World Bank. Why shouldn't Wolfowitz help her when he was the reason she had to leave?
I might be into that kind of thing, though. :shock:
