    like Ed Helms surmised, Bush put forth a Attorney General who has, on record, little respect for the Geneva Convention, a Rep to the UN who has publically stated little respect for and a contemptutious past with the UN, and now Wolfowitz...an architect of war with absolutely no background in economics.

    But it makes sense. What does the World Bank do? They go into developing nations with massive loans, which in turn force these nations to starve their people farming for export rather than sustainable domestic use, foster inhuman labor conditions all kinds of other unfavorable conditions, such as environmental exploitation...all of these which may lead to internal civil wars, which could lead to a new brands of terrorism, potentially spawning a threat to US and world security.

    Why not put an architect of war in charge of this organization. It not like anyone is paying any attention. Its not like anyone gives a shit in this country.
