Quote : | "Wolfowitz Dictated Girlfriend's Pay Deal World Bank Board Weighs Its Options
World Bank President Paul D. Wolfowitz personally dictated the terms under which the bank gave what it called his "domestic partner" substantial pay raises and promotions in exchange for temporarily leaving her job there during his tenure, according to documents released by the bank's executive board yesterday.
The board issued a statement saying it will "move expeditiously to reach a conclusion on possible actions to take," amid rising speculation over whether the embattled Wolfowitz will resign or be asked to step down. Board deliberations over his future were suspended yesterday morning as the bank began its spring meeting, an annual rite attended by finance ministers and central bank presidents, and one now being overtaken by the controversy surrounding Wolfowitz." |

And apparently he's pissed the World Bank staff off so much with various other misdoings that they booed him at a meeting recently:

Uncharterd waters my ass. At that high up the ladder, you should already know that you don't get involved in financial anything when it comes to a coworker who also happens to be a subbordinate. The realtionship in and of itself is a potential conflict of interest.
