CNN just reported that "Embattled World Bank President Paul Wolfowitz will leave office June 30 amid a controversy over his handling of a pay package for his girlfriend, a bank employee, the institution's board of directors announced Thursday."
President Bush on Thursday sounded as if he was resigned to the fact that Wolfowitz's tenure was coming to an end. Bush applauded Wolfowitz for having made sure the bank "focused on things that matter -- human suffering, the human condition." He added, "I respect him a lot and, as I say, I regret that it's come to this right now."
I concur, no one has focused on human suffering like Paul Wolfowitz.
