First the guy gets us into a war under false pretenses, now he screws (I know, I know, but I spent the day with 3rd graders so give me a break) up the cushy job he was rewarded with for all that war success.
World Bank president Paul Wolfowitz Thursday confessed to errors over a pay scandal surrounding his girlfriend but still faced an open revolt from staff members agitating for his resignation.
"I made a mistake, for which I am sorry," Wolfowitz told a news conference, as uproar deepened over an employment package worth nearly 200,000 dollars given by the World Bank to his Libyan-born partner, Shaha Riza.
The association representing the World Bank's 10,000 staff said the embattled Wolfowitz had "destroyed" the trust of employees and should quit.
"He must act honorably and resign," the de facto union said in a letter to staff, according to contents confirmed to AFP.
"The president must acknowledge that his conduct has compromised the integrity and effectiveness of the World Bank Group and has destroyed the staff trust in his leadership," the staff association said.
Sounds like that "de facto union" ought to send the same message to Wolfowitz's old boss, the boy king Bu$hCo.
