Wolfowitz Resigns From World Bank

What the hell took so long? I am so tired of people not taking responsibility. There was no gray area here. Don't tell me that there were extenuating circumstances. Does he expects us to believe that he didn't know that it was wrong? Please!

The Washington Post has a lengthy article which outlines his whole career and has all these people saying he was never management material. Where were all these nitwits before?

But others, including some friends and admirers, saw the seeds of Wolfowitz's demise in the arc of his 34-year Washington career -- a steady rise through the State Department and the Pentagon, interrupted only to become dean of Johns Hopkins University's School of Advanced International Studies during the Clinton years. Throughout, Wolfowitz built a reputation as a foreign policy iconoclast, a mild-mannered intellectual with a steely ideological core, and an inept manager.
Wolfowitz, they concluded, should never have been in charge of a multinational institution owned by more than 180 governments and with 10,000 employees.
"At the World Bank, you're not as well protected" as in government, said Fred Ikle, a veteran national security official who brought Wolfowitz to the U.S. Arms Control and Disarmament Agency in 1973. "You don't have somebody above you who will endorse what you want to do."
Another former colleague who served with Wolfowitz in four administrations said that "the kinds of problems he got into were predictable for anybody who really knew Paul." Speaking on the condition of anonymity, the source voiced admiration for his intellect but said Wolfowitz "couldn't run a two-car funeral."

"couldn't run a two car funeral." Great! Where were you when they were vetting him, buddy? STFU. You were no help.
