Another Bushy Bites the Dust! Who’s Next?

Posted on May 17th, 2007 by vicezilla

Paul Wolfowitz is gone, and not soon enough!

Wolfowitz’s last official day as president of the World Bank is June 30 of this year. Let’s hope he takes a leave of absence effectively immediately so the institution can start the healing fumigation process. Oops, I mean the healing process.

The only thing to worry about now, is who Bush is going to replace him with. Let’s face the facts. Bush is a lame duck President. He’s used up all of his political clout. There’s nothing left in the tank. Wolfowitz’s appointment was just another example of Bush’s inability to select the right man (or woman) for the job. It’s obvious when Bush selects people to fill important positions or posts, he relies more on favors owed than actual credentials.

Paul Wolfowitz had no prior experience in finance, poverty-fighting, or development, but yet landed the job as President of the World Bank, which was created specifically to fight poverty in under developed countries, and also provide funds to develop said countries with no interest loans. Was Paul Wolfowitz qualified to be President of the World Bank? Not at all. Was Mike Brown qualified to head the Federal Emergency Management Agency? We all know the answer to that question. Bush just continues his long litany of favoritism.

Well, who’s gonna be the next President of the World Bank? The Bush family private Gardner? Or how about his Barber? Laura Bush’s Manicurist? I”ll bet you that Cheney and Rove will be able to find another unqualified, corrupt Bushy that needs a favor repaid!
