WH: ‘All options are on the table’ regarding Wolfowitz.
ABC reports:
In a significant shift that a White House official tells ABC’s Jonathan Karl that “all options are on the table” regarding World Bank President Paul Wolfowitz, and “it is an option question” whether he should remain as President of the World Bank.
This statement is the first time the White House has not expressed “full confidence in Paul Wolfowitz.”
UPDATE: The full report is out from ABC.

May 15th, 2007 at 12:44 pmDidn’t the WH use the exact words for Iran??
NUKE WOLF!!
May 15th, 2007 at 12:44 pmBomb’s away!!
May 15th, 2007 at 12:48 pmAccording to Mike Gravel, this means that they intend to launch nuclear strikes against him.
Any chance they could wait until his visits Oklahoma?
That’s right, OK, I’m calling you out!
;-)
May 15th, 2007 at 12:54 pmWhy are they holding on to Wolfowitz. They should be throwing him into the “wolves” (he can be a leader of them!) since it appears inevitable he will have to be ousted, fired, retired, extended leave of absence, etc.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:00 pmFunny how this site never shows the polls when it is like this. Love the new congress, keep is up losers.

May 15th, 2007 at 1:00 pmWould one of the options involve handing him over to the Hague for trial as a war criminal?
May 15th, 2007 at 1:00 pmIf the White House fucks with Wolfie, will Wolfie fuck with them?

Or render him to a third-world country?
May 15th, 2007 at 1:01 pmWolfowitz must be fired > PERIOD. Bush will have to learn to live with it and Cheney needs to shut-up.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:02 pmOr put him a special charter to Paraguay via Geneva and Riyadh?

Comment by Happy Guy — May 15, 2007 @ 1:00 pm
What is so funny is that the Democrats will destroy the GOP in 2008 despite such low numbers. What does that say about how much most Americans now despise the Republicans and the lickspittle lackeys who support Bush?
May 15th, 2007 at 1:04 pmWolfie seems like an incredibly nasty man. I will be looking forward to seeing who he throws under the bus if he is forced out.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:06 pmI am tiring of this ‘everything on the table’ line of reason.
It’s ridiculous analogy -The asses attending are seated on seperate planes a full level below the table.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:06 pm#6 ~ I believe those poll numbers. They aren’t likely to get much higher until impeachment is back on the table.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:07 pmALL OPTIONS ARE ON THE TABLE
FOR FRIGGIN POLITICAL PARASITES FAMILY VALUES
THAT IS TOTALLY CORRUPT FAMILY VALUES
AND OF COURSE
ALL OPTIONS ARE OFF THE TABLE
REGARDING A CONGRESS THAT WILL BE THE MOST OPEN/HONEST
TO SERVE THE PEOPLE, THE MOST ACCOUNTABLE CONGRESS EVER
STRAIGHT FROM A SWINDLER…… A PRO AT BILLIONS IN EARMARKS
AND THE HIGHEST HOUSE OF THE LAND + PELOSI
CORRUPT I SAY
TOTALLY CORRUPT
LITERALLY A CESSPOOL OF COMPLETE TOTAL CORRUPTION
LITERALLY A BUNCH OF POLITICAL MAGGOTS, LITERALLY HOODLUMS
May 15th, 2007 at 1:08 pm#6
Was about to post that. The do nothing Dumbocrats are dropping below the President again!
May 15th, 2007 at 1:09 pm#5 WHY ARE THEY HOLDING ON TO WOLFIE CROOK
SURE IT’S ON THE TABLE FOR HIM AND OFF THE TABLE
FOR BUSH/CHENEY
POLITICAL HOODLUMS I SAY
COMPLETE POLITICAL TRASH
IN A CESSPOOL OF POLITICAL PARASITES
May 15th, 2007 at 1:10 pmHappy guy is posting half-truths:
Approval ratings of Congress are higher among Democrats than Republicans, while Bush’s ratings are much higher among Republicans.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:16 pmIf the White House F*cks with Me, I’m Gonna F*ck with Them!!
May 15th, 2007 at 1:19 pmThe answer to your question is no m12, the Repubs still got a lower rating in congress than the Demos.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:20 pm#18
of course DUDE… you know why? take a look at 5/11/2007
http://www.corruptionchronicles.com under pelosi and see how she
just earmarked a 25 million dollar contract which will financially
benefit her husband.
according to corruptionchronicles Pelosi has been a pro, literally
a swindler of pork for many years involving many millions if not
billions in earkmarks
and that is the most open/accountable congress to serve the people?
May 15th, 2007 at 1:22 pmgolly gee, no reform nor nothin 6 months later… i would refer to that
literally as swindlers
One good option is waterboarding.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:24 pmApproval ratings of Congress are higher among Democrats than Republicans, while Bush’s ratings are much higher among Republicans.

Zep Tepi = wants to divide and conquer the USA.
ZT = IslamoFascist
May 15th, 2007 at 1:31 pmCheney will be upset when Wolfowitz falls, because Paul was supposed to rob the World Bank blind for Darth Dicky.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:34 pmOnly option: Fire his ass.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:34 pmPlease, somebody address Mr. Irrelevant.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:35 pmHe is doing his best out there. Come on.
This is what the White House ALWAYS says when they know the real answer would piss everyone off. There are no options. This White House has made it very apparant that they do what they want and don’t feel the need to answer to anybody. Why should this be any different?
May 15th, 2007 at 1:35 pmComment by jimbo DUDE
Yo’ dude. The link you provided doesn’t discuss Pelosi. Wanna try again?
May 15th, 2007 at 1:36 pmWH: ‘All options are on the table’ regarding Wolfowitz.
Too bad Pelosi can’t say the same thing about “Commander Guy” Bush and Darth Cheney. =P
May 15th, 2007 at 1:38 pmComment by Mr. President
Anyone still using Islamofacist at this late date might as well hang a “I’m with Stupid” sign around their neck.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:40 pmZep Tepi = wants to divide and conquer the USA.
ZT = IslamoFascist
Comment by Mr. President —
Huh. Because I pointed out in the link Happy Guy posted is a half-truth I am now Islamic? And a fascist to boot?
Your funny Mr President.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:40 pmMr. President=Can’t undestand the topic of the thread
May 15th, 2007 at 1:42 pmJimbo – From Judicial Watch:
Republicans are accusing House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of including a provision in a water redevelopment bill that could benefit property her husband owns in San Francisco.
Aides to the San Francisco Democrat denied any connection, noting that the waterfront improvements were requested by the Port of San Francisco and the four rental properties in question are at least a mile away.
Republicans, who raised the issue more than two weeks after the bill passed the House, offered no evidence of benefit to Paul Pelosi’s real estate holdings.
Looks like a misfire, Jimbo.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:45 pmMr. President = Mr. Idiot.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:49 pmJust like in real life.
Zep Tepi = wants to divide and conquer the USA.
Why would I want to do that when it’s being going on for a decade under this divisive administration for a 6 years? Rove wasn’t making powerpoints for Democrats ya know Pres.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:49 pmJimbo, this “a pox on both their houses” stuff would be more convincing if you didn’t make shit up.
according to corruptionchronicles Pelosi has been a pro, literally
a swindler of pork for many years involving many millions if not
billions in earkmarks
That’s not what the article said – did you only look at the header?
May 15th, 2007 at 1:50 pmJimbo, time for a chill pill… those of us who have lived in Pelosi’s districts for a long time have no problem with her. Don’t believe everything you read, dude.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:50 pmthey hung on as long as they could, I guess…
May 15th, 2007 at 2:13 pmI will say it again –

May 15th, 2007 at 3:45 pmWe’ve made clear that we support Paul Wolfowitz,” White House spokesman Tony Snow told reporters.
“Furthermore, he has said — and we agree — that certainly a lot of mistakes were made in the personnel process. But it’s not a firing offense,” he added.
So, he never got a blow job?
May 15th, 2007 at 3:58 pm“THAT IS WHAT MAKES ME SO HEAVENLY AWESOME DUDE, I’M
ULTIMATE COOLNESS AND JUST HAPPEN TO BLOW EVERYONE
AWAY AS A TOTALLY COOL DUDE.”
Except for the bullshit about Pelosi. That was pure hackery, dude.
