    Tony Blair has just been tipped to take over from Wolfowitz as the head of the World Bank. I guess there are some advantages to being Bush's lap dog after all

    Another Bush insult to the American public help to mold the lies that led to war in Iraq. Typical Republican of moral values who has girl friend he needs to support and keep company with.

    He'll be back. Consider Gordon Liddy, Ollie North, Dick Morris and Newt Gingrich. All these guys were guilty of crimes or extremely unethical behavior, and they all got great second careers which game them the opportunity to affect politics and make good money.

    Miss him? Yea, because I visit the World Bank so very often! The place just seems dreary, without Paul.

    Yes. He was a good scapegoat. Now the Bush administration will have to go through the trouble of finding a new one.
