World Bank officials say the bank's board is completing an "exit strategy" that will allow World Bank President Paul Wolfowitz to resign this afternoon and "still save some face" over the issue of his efforts to seek a promotion and pay raise for his girlfriend at the bank.

The officials say the bank's board will accept Wolfowitz's resignation but will also acknowledge that the World Bank's Ethics Committee bears "some responsibility" for giving him bad advice on the issue of his girlfriend.

The decision is likely today, officials say, because Wolfowitz had been scheduled to leave tonight for a European trip

:D

1. Really? That is great news....will Shrub* take Wolfowitz back into

...his administration you think?

5. going to prison is the only way a Bush insider doesn't get back in to the admin

While I love to see Wolfowitz out, there's always the fear of wondering who Bush is going to try to replace him with. These people are nuts.

4. Why do we give thugs a way out?

"giving him bad advice" amounts to "I got bad intel"

Just a way out without being held fully accountable for their wrong doings

6. Why? so they can "re-group" and come back to haunt us later

:grr:
It's like roach extermination by flipping on the light-switch... click..they're "gone".

8. Yep

Love the egg...I may never eat another sunny side up egg again...without guilt...or laughing
