Bush wants Wolfowitz as head of World Bank

"WASHINGTON (AP) — President Bush will recommend that Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz take over as head of the World Bank, a senior administration official said Wednesday.

Wolfowitz has been Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld's top deputy and a lightning rod for criticism over the U.S. invasion of Iraq and other defense policies.

Wolfowitz is a deeply controversial figure in Europe because of the Iraq war."

Hell, I'm beginning to like the idea of *Sonny* Bono take the position. Even though I hear he's experiencing a little stiffness, these days.
