Wolfowitz Says He Is Target of 'Smear' Tactics

World Bank President Paul D. Wolfowitz said yesterday that he is the victim of a "smear campaign" designed to unfairly portray him as unethical and an ineffective leader and that he would "not give in to such tactics" by resigning.


Y'know, if I'm a guy who's being accused of arranging for some serious compensation for the chick I'm banging, "smear" ain't a word I want in people's minds.

Oh, and Paulie Boy? That whole money-for-sex thing? In D.C., we call that prostitution.

Uh-huh.

"Unfortunate Choice of Words" is exactly correct, yet misses the point: On Yahoo! news, run by the Zionist Semel, the one that stated he "wasn't sure how he would feel" if someone had turned in Jewish Freedom fighters to the Nazis during WWII, like HE DID to a Chinese democracy advocate, that received a nice little TEN YEAR SENTENCE in a Chinese posh prison.

Yahoo! news headline?

"Wolfowitz decries he is victim of smear"

Decries? How long did his buddy Semel take to dig that word up?

Decries, decries, we all wish Neocons would fry.

Imagine if you or I had done this. We would have been terminated immediately, and asked to pay back the funds he funneled to his mistress.

He gets to stick around a few weeks to collect a $400,000 bonus.

Nah, there's no outside influence on our Free Press, are you crazy???

I don't know, and really don't care how anyone else feels about this, but it is clear to me what is what here.

It isn't Bush and Cheney going around lying, lying lying. That's is expected SOP for Republican and Democratic politicians.

It is their Zionist, Christian Fundie, Military/Industrial/Corporate stooges cum "journalists" that is one piece of the problem.

And their editors/publishers/corporate employers that choose what truths Americans will hear is the other.

Please, label me with the A.S. epitaph.

I like to know who my country's enemies are.

And buddy, it isn't "Jews."

It is a collusion of a foreign government and the domestic Military/Industrial complex.

Hey, woman! Happy vacationing!!!

Isn't that pic pretty? So shiny and sparkly! Kinda like . . . oh, never mind.

Henceforth, I shall refer to Wolfie as Paul "Smear Job" Wolfowitz. Occasionally shortened to, say, "Smear." Kinda like "Santorum" *smirk*.
