Profiles in Creepiness


What an arrogant, smug little fuck:

The friend who saw Mr. Wolfowitz’s term at the bank as a second chance said: “It was not that he was looking for a redemption from Iraq per se. But he was certainly looking for something to do as a great man in foreign policy, which is how he has always seen himself.”

Once Mr. Wolfowitz leaves the bank, friends say, he may join the legions of former colleagues, from George J. Tenet of the C.I.A. to L. Paul Bremer III, who led the post-invasion government in Iraq, who have written books and op-ed articles to defend their actions on the war.

Bank officials say, in fact, that when he arrived there in 2005, Mr. Wolfowitz wanted to write a book about Iraq and accept fees for speeches. That set off his first fight with ethics officers, who told him he could not do so.

Paul Wolfowitz needs a good, solid ass-kicking, followed by an extended stay in Mesopotamia, where he can observe first-hand the results of his "great man in foreign policy" decisions. In fact, I think EVERY wingnut who's too cowardly to serve in the military should instead LIVE in Iraq, where they can provide a constituency that supports the military effort and likewise witness first hand the joys of liberation. It's the least they could do.
