"Wolfowitz Dictated Girlfriend's Pay Deal
World Bank Board Weighs Its Options

World Bank President Paul D. Wolfowitz personally dictated the terms under which the bank gave what it called his "domestic partner" substantial pay raises and promotions in exchange for temporarily leaving her job there during his tenure, according to documents released by the bank's executive board yesterday.

The board issued a statement saying it will "move expeditiously to reach a conclusion on possible actions to take," amid rising speculation over whether the embattled Wolfowitz will resign or be asked to step down. Board deliberations over his future were suspended yesterday morning as the bank began its spring meeting, an annual rite attended by finance ministers and central bank presidents, and one now being overtaken by the controversy surrounding Wolfowitz."

And apparently he's pissed the World Bank staff off so much with various other misdoings that they booed him at a meeting recently:

NWO elites are ok.

It's just the academic types that we're supposed to hate.

"Wolfowitz has clashed with the staff over pay packages and authority he gave to aides Robin Cleveland and Kevin Kellems, whom he brought to the bank from the White House, installed in senior positions and rewarded with open-ended contracts and quarter-million-dollar, tax-free salaries, despite their lack of development experience."

"Wolfowitz defended his actions to send Riza on an external assignment to the U.S. State Department soon after he joined the bank in 2005, saying he was in "uncharted waters" in his new job."


Uncharterd waters my ass. At that high up the ladder, you should already know that you don't get involved in financial anything when it comes to a coworker who also happens to be a subbordinate. The realtionship in and of itself is a potential conflict of interest.

""In hindsight [i]because I got caught[i], I wish I had trusted my original instincts and kept myself out of the negotiations. I made a mistake, for which I am sorry," he said."
