To Arms, Wolfites!
Good lord this is sleazy.
Wheat & Weeds – Soros v. Wolfowitz
Leading elite candidate to replace Wolfie? Mark Malloch Brown. Kofi Annan’s deputy –the guy who thought the oil-for-spoils debacle wasn’t worth talking about and George Soros’ hedge fund manager. Bankies want him instead of Wolfowitz, and that’s why the committee trying to force Wolfie out dropped a 600 pp. document in his lap and gave him 48 hours to respond (itself a violation of bank rules, as the Journal points out).
This is the same kangaroo court that last month leaked its guilty verdict to the Washington Post before Mr. Wolfowitz even had a chance to plead his case.
Read the whole thing. Oi.
(She leaves out that Mr Brown is the same guy who blamed the UN’s PR issues on Rush “Limbow” and Fox News.)

Mark Malloch Brown is the worst kind of British upper class creep. To put him in the job would pretty well prove Wolfowitz was innocent.

Is he upper class? I thought he was the model Blairite, which would pretty much disqualify any class or breeding.
