"The fleeting rush that comes from forcing neocons to resign"

i wonder if spitcomb is assiduously "preparing" a la alberto gonzales...
A World Bank committee investigating president Paul D. Wolfowitz has nearly completed a report that it plans to give the institution's governing board, concluding that he breached ethics rules when he engineered a pay raise for his girlfriend, three senior bank officials said Friday.

Friday evening, the committee was debating whether to explicitly recommend that Wolfowitz resign, according to the sources, who spoke on condition they not be named, citing an ongoing probe into leaks.

Wolfowitz is scheduled to appear before the committee with his attorney on Monday morning and mount his defense, and the bank's 24-member board of directors will convene that afternoon to discuss the report. The sources suggested that a vote by the board could come that day.

jumping back to naomi klein's article (see previous post) to grab another quote snippet...
...the fleeting rush that comes from forcing neocons to resign.

as bad as things are under bushco, i will happily go for the "fleeting rush..." yes, the world bank is a problem in and of itself, just the way u.s. behavior has been a problem in and of itself long before bushco... but with the bush administration, i've seen criminality baldly moved front and center, and putting wolfie at the world bank counts as just one more instance of their ceaseless effort to accumulate unfettered power, create access to unlimited rivers of cash, and impose their twisted ideology on the rest of the world... if wolfie goes, yes, it's just a step, but i'll take it...
