Angry Wolfowitz in four-letter tirade

[mikeytherat]

Source: UK Guardian

An angry and bitter Paul Wolfowitz poured abuse and threatened retaliations on senior World Bank staff if his orders for pay rises and promotions for his partner were revealed, according to new details published last night.

Under fire for the lavish package given to Shaha Riza, a World Bank employee and Mr Wolfowitz's girlfriend when he became president, an official investigation into the controversy has found that Mr Wolfowitz broke bank rules and violated his own contract – setting off a struggle between US and European governments over Mr Wolfowitz's future.

Sounding more like a cast member of the Sopranos than an international leader, in testimony by one key witness Mr Wolfowitz declares: "If they fuck with me or Shaha, I have enough on them to fuck them too.

1. Pathological evil thug

typical of the Bush regime.

[GCP]

2. Ahem = let's see if this gets onto the network news tonight

Not that I'm holding my breath

[brg5001]

32. Nor has MSM reported that he's an ANTI-CORRUPTION crusader

MSM never reports that he was the leading stinky Neocon behind the Iraq mess. Nor is it pointed out WHY it's such a big deal that he arranged this cushy job for his girlfriend -- It's because he came into the World Bank as MR. ANTI-CORRUPTION, leading the charge against corruption in countries that receive World Bank loans. What a f*&^khead.

[dweller]

3. comb-licker ... n/t

[C_U_L8R]

17. hairy tongue

[Kikosexy2]

61. WB...

needs to fire him and tell him to Go F*#K Himself..and get some new socks dammit!!

[CJCRANE]

4. "Sounding more like a cast member of the Sopranos".

Bushco is the political version of the Sopranos, that should be obvious by now.

[Uben]

5. Throw the bum in prison

He's just another dumfuk who thinks the world owes him something. Send him to the Hague, lock his ass up, and throw away the key.
Give a short bastard power and they think they are God.

[izzie]

9. Well I must say it is how I was thinking. I just would never say it that way

By the way is he really short? Maybe we are on to some thing. Bush has bow-legs and is some what short when one looks as his brother and father. I have met short men who do have hang-ups about it. Being a short women in a family of tall people I am forever picked on about it but I think it is fun. I read history a lot and did you know the last Czar was short and also up tight about it? I wonder if their is not something into all this?

[NJCher]

38. Sure

It's called "little man's complex" and also "Napoleonic complex.



Cher

[izzie]

67. Yes I have heard of all that but one has to wonder if it is true.

It does seem to be. I would think it almost silly to think this way. Yet I get it into my mind it is a truism all the same.

[Raven]

6. I wonder how badly World Bank members' arms are being

twisted on this. Paulson was "making calls" yesterday on Wolfowitz' behalf...I wonder if he was offering $$$$ or threatening to withold $$$$. Or maybe Bush has no political capital left.

[xchrom]

7. lol -- well i guess your inner ugly is now on display

for EVERYONE to see -- wolfowitz.

what a fuckin tapeworm.

[Massachusetts]

8. Keep exposing the rotted wood, and cut it out.

That's the only way to save the house.

[Ian David]

10. Not girlfriend. Mistress. Wolfowitz was married. MISTRESS. n/t

[Tesla]

15. I hope Mrs. Wolf will get all the money he stole

when she divorces his wicked butt.
Wonder how many others have "Girlfriends" on the payroll?

[truth2power]

18. Is he still married, or was he when the relationship started? Either way...

thanks for pointing this out. These "family values" folk are always neglecting the beam in their own eye. :eyes:

[Virginia Dare]

34. I'ts assumed he's still married..

divorce records in Maryland can't be found, but the Wolfowitz's still own a home together in Maryland. Mrs. Wolfowitz won't confirm either way whether they're still married or not. In other words, she's been paid to keep her mouth shut.

[Roland99]

11. What's that I hear? Why, yes, it's the distant wail of the ....

[Virginia Dare]

35. More like the screaming cacophony...n/t

[Demeter]

12. Blackmail? Somehow I'm Not Surprised

The only "facts" these thugs deal in are the ones to their advantage (whether real, or made up).

Go Ahead, dish the dirt and let the whole rotten mess be exposed to the sun and the air and the cleansing action of public opinion. You could prbably take out the Big Cheeses, on the way, by accident! (And those really smell)

[Thor_MN]

13. Will Wolfie's fall from grace also bring down the Neoconcubine?

If her raise and promotion were not legit, shouldn't she at least be demoted and suffer a pay cut back to her mere pittance of over $132K, tax free?

[Occulus]

39. "Neoconcubine"

:rofl:

[Gman]

14. Go lick your comb, Paul because you're

fucked yourself.

[Justice]

16. This is really rich. no wonder the staff failed to rise to his defense

[Blackhatjack]

19. Wait! Are You Sure That Quote Did Not Come From BUSH? or CHENEY?

Sheesh, they are all singing from the same choir book.

[tanyev]

20. Oh, Mr. Wolfowitz, what a big temper you have.

Tsk, tsk.

[Lisa]

63. the only thing that's big about him! Little judgement, scruples ... and everything else (n/t)

[peacetalksforall]

21. Note the content and form of the threat - blackmail - how did those

words come out of his mouth so easily. Was it an empty threat.

What have DUers 'jokingly' said about the votes of Dem (and Repub) leaders when they vote irrationally?

What is one of the purposes of spying, data gathering, and databases?

What is the benefit of blackmail - control?

Why do they want to control? Advance their agenda? Meet with no resistance?

I find his response to be very interesting.

Combined with the swearing, it was serious.

[bonito]

29. Exactly right

You can be sure the pnac has its hands on every bit of intelligence out there to further their agenda, and are behind the fisa spying and more.

[bdamomma]

22. throw this ignorant and arrogant man out now!!!

[kskiska]

23. Ready for my closeup

[Sacajawea]

55. A wife? AND a girlfriend? ????? And I haven't had a date in 25 years.

[Frank Cannon]

69. Well, that's because you're not a sex magnet like Wolfowitz

Paul Wolfowitz is the love god. Unlike Travolta or Newton-John, he truly IS the one that you want.

[corkhead]

24. add "lack of shame" to their inability to recognize irony, sarcasm, humor, or hypocrisy

anybody who can look themselves in the mirror would have resigned by now. These fuckers never let go.

[YOY]

25. That woman must be a real tigress in the sack

or Paul may just be a real idiot.

I'm going with letter "b".

[Orsino]

46. She's an inspiration to us all...

...being able to function in a high-profile position without the apparent benefit of sight or a sense of smell.

[YOY]

52. Nor moral compass!

n/t

[arewenotdemo]

64. lol

Actually, she may have been instrumental in getting 100-200,000 Iraqis and 3000+ Americans killed in Iraq.

She championed the "democratization" of the Middle East, so she was in on the whole thing.

[Broadslidin]

26. Will the Saintly N.Y.T. Publish these Wolfowitz Vicious Threats..?

Or is the N.Y.T. simply a reflection of
an immature fear ravaged narcissistic society?

[Cass]

27. Who in the hell does this guy think he is??

The arrogance of this bunch of thugs knows no bounds.

[Amonester]

75. a "have" who wants to become a "have-more" by:

cheating, bullying, blackmailling, stealing, etc.

it's a desease the pnac'ers all have which will get us all killed if they're not busted in time...

but by who?

congress? :shrug:

[KansDem]

28. My, my, Paul, do you kiss your mother with that mouth?

...or Shaha?

Maybe she likes it when you talk dirty? Shaha that is, not your mother.

Cheney would be proud of you.

[Skidmore]

30. Wow! A two-fer day. Reports of Perle and Wolfowitz both having

hissyfits on the same day.

[daleo]

40. It's coming apart on them

Really, they deserve prison for their crimes.

[The Wizard]

47. prison?

A 10 foot high tree limb and a four foot rope would be more appropriate.

[daleo]

68. I don't generally support capital punishment

Other than that, it is hard to argue with your suggestion.

Maybe a supermax solitary for the rest of their lives.

[arewenotdemo]

70. I couldn't agree more

[shanti]

50. their PNAC dream

is falling apart. heh.

[leftofthedial]

31. thee repukes are so deeply corrupt

and have such a narcissistic sense of self entitlement

that I'm beginning to believe it is a mental illness

[Virginia Dare]

33. Zam, that sounds like a calling out..

show your cards Wolfman, and by the way just how did you get that info--listening in on phone calls, reading e-mails?? Inquiring minds want to know

[NastyDiaper]

36. Speaking on having enough to Fuck them.

Every time * defends wolfie i wonder what wolfie has that can be worse than stuff we already know.

Maybe a check-stub paying for the yellowcake forgeries?

[paparush]

37. Hey - When a comb licking, neocon, war zealot can't abuse his staff while

securing a high paying job for his lover, then the terrorists have already won.

[cliss]

41. Go, Paul.

Now, I hope he goes ahead and divulges those secrets he's holding over their heads.

There is a lot of stuff we don't know yet. This stalemate is forcing the garbage to the surface.

Who would have guessed? The Neo Cons could be entertaining.:smoke:

[Gregorian]

42. Yeah! I knew today would prove entertaining. The PNAC-Team loses it.

I've got to get creative and do a PNAC-Team photoshop.

[hunter]

43. In spook school they voted Wolfowitz...

... most likely to become a squeaky-humpy toy for Satan's obnoxious little toy poodle, Rex.

I almost feel sorry for the little megalomaniac. This is what happens when everyone tells you how smart you are, and you believe it. Nobody is that smart. Wisdom is knowing your weaknesses.

Condoleezza Rice suffers the same affliction.

[LuckyLib]

44. Paul, Paul, Paul. For a supposedly intelligent man, you are rather stupid. Don't you know that in

today's high-tech world, nothing is private? Or can be covered up? Tsk-tsk.

[swimboy]

45. another magical shit-filled pinata sponsored by the Bush Traveling Medicine Show

setting off a struggle between US and European governments over Mr Wolfowitz's future.

Why the hell is there a struggle? It's embarrassing enough "we" put him there without further humiliating "ourselves" attempting to keep him there.

And he says he needs to stay because he was sent there to fight corruption and he isn't finished yet.






(wtg, mikey. I'm out Wed and Sun but will see you next week!)

[mikeytherat]

48. Dude! "shit-filled pinata"! Oh, man. Coffee is everywhere!

Thanks for the laugh, I needed it. I'm working on Phyllis' computer right now - dear Lord, what a mess it is!

mikey_the_rat

[swimboy]

57. It was a mess before the coffee happened, right?

:hi:

[mikeytherat]

60. Ya, you betcha!

She has set a record for number of spyware programs running on a PC - over 260! Viruses? 20! Number of registry intrusions? Over 600! It's been a real bear, but I finally have it back from the dead.

Tell ya this much - she's firewalled, anti-virused, and locked down NOW!

mikey_the_rat

PS
No coffee was wasted on her Farmer in the Dell PC.

[LuckyLib]

49. That's what I mean about at least one belly laugh a day from the smart folks on DU!

[BootinUp]

51. Another day, another neocon embarrassment for America. n/t

[truthisfreedom]

53. Step three in The Kübler-Ross grief cycle.

[leQ]

54. the guardian actually printed the words fuck?

[slowry]

66. That's good right?

I hate being treated like a child by the MSM :rofl:.

[JoFerret]

72. They print the lot

[JoFerret]

73. Read this to see the whole range of taboo words in one place

56. On Court TV, they call that consciousness of guilt...

:evilgrin:
rocknation

[lovuian]

58. if Europe caves on this they will cave on anything

he violated the ethics code

[xxqqqzme]

59. forever 'n ever wolfie's name

will immediately bring the picture of comb in mouth - comb through hair and I gag all over again.

That little clip just said it all - kind-of like the one of dimson picking his nose. Those images just capture their essence.

[hayu_lol]

62. Mr PNAC...

Heckofajob Wolfie.

Perhaps he will join Mr Fatty Falwell shortly.

[wellst0nev0ter]

65. I'm Surprised That Anyone Is Surprised

This was featured in Franken's book "Lies: And The Lying Liars That Tell Them"

Salon didn't go down for Saturday's White House Correspondents' Dinner and its corresponding exclusive Bloomberg-sponsored after-party this year, so instead we relied on the eyewitness reports of trusted spies who attended the annual gala, where the most powerful people in the country rub shoulders with entertainment powerhouses like Dr. Ruth, Jason Priestley and Richard Belzer.

This year's kitsch-a-thon, though, sounds like it was far more somber than in the past. President Bush cracked no jokes at the dinner, instead honoring journalists who were killed in the line of duty in Iraq. (For a serviceable news report of the event, read this.) No one, it seems, was in much of a clowning mood. Take the exchange we heard about between comedian/smartass Al Franken and Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz:

Franken: "Clinton's military did pretty well in Iraq, huh?"

Wolfowitz: "Fuck you."

http://dir.salon.com/story/ent/col/fix/2003/04/27/white_house/index.html

[brentspeak]

71. Al Franken reported that Wolfowitz replied to Franken with a "F**K you."

During a WH annual press dinner.

[struggle4progress]

74. He's such a diplomat
