The narrow idealistic views of the US President, the Pope, Falwell, Robertson, etc. are the result of GROSS IGNORANCE OF REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY!!!!! Wolfowitz should not only be fired, he should be tried for high treason for his role in the lead up of a war that has cost thousands of lives, injured many thousands of soldiers and civilians, including children ---a war that had nothing to do with the 9/11 attack in New York!

By the way, is the girlfriend still getting a paycheck from our government, and is she still holding the secret clearance that foreigners are not supposed to be allowed to have??? And what did she do at that job that paid so much? Since she worked only with a Cheney, I can only doubt it was legal. So long Wolfie.

It affects whole populations, overall public health and communicable diseases, STD's, AID's, worker (mean the worker(s) and their families) productivity, huge chunks of developing country budgets, population density and movements (which impact all development projects, from dams to roads to public transport), you name it. Not to mention domestic politics, the social status of women and children, sexual trafficking, and on and on. Like Justice Kennedy and his Supreme Court majority, the underlying theme seems to be to demote women's independence via women's reproductive and health issues, and to promote the political power of conservative men and their institutions, including many churches. That may be Mr. Bush's domestic agenda, but imposing it on foreign stattes under the guise of assistance is as genuine as a Karl Rove handshake. The World Bank cannot do its job, and the conditions of the countries it seeks to help will not improve, under policies or personalities advocated by Paul Wolfowitz.
