Wolfowitz Out

CNN reports that Wolfowitz and the WB board have come to an agreement and he has stepped down. Sounds like he leaves thinking he's exonerated and the Bank has fallen back on the old 'mistakes were made' canard.

Wolfowitz?

Is he 'dead' yet? Haven't heard anything today.

Wolfowitz Off the Rails

The Paul Wolfowitz scandal with his Libyan/Saudi girlfriend and the World Bank is turning out to be more mysterious and more scandalous by the minute. Sid Blumenthal has a look into it at Salon and pops up some interesting connections (can you say 'Cheney'?) and a lot of serious, national security questions. This will end up being a BIG deal.
