I'm ashamed to admit that the Bush administration's ability to choose incredibly bad nominees to important posts continues to surprise me.
And now comes word that Paul Wolfowitz is being put forward to run the World Bank. What insanity is this? Seriously.
I'm loath to direct my outrage so predictably, but let's get real! Expect graft and corruption. Expect money pouring into projects that do nothing to improve the lot of people's lives but enrich neocon-led corporations. It's one more step forward for PNAC's pax Americana.
I could just spit.

But c'mon, is Bono really a better choice?
Better than Wolfie?
Let's see. He's intelligent, broad-minded, globally-minded, thoughtful, passionate about social justice, etc., etc., etc.
He may come across as being really full of himself, and maybe he is. But he has one big thing over Wolfie: He cares.
So yes. Yes he is.
