For his part, Wolfowitz said he was pleased that the board "accepted my assurance that I acted ethically and in good faith in what I believed were the best interests of the institution, including protecting the rights of a valued staff member."
The reports I've heard on radio say the World Bank Board was very angry with Wolfowitz, and that work had come to a near standstill the past two months. So, in order to get on with business, and just to get him out of there, they agreed to a statement that acknowledged he did nothing improper and also that listed all the wonderful things he supposedly did while he was there. In the words of one radio reporter, that was the price they paid to get rid of him.
But the old combsucker is pleased. Living in a make-believe world. It's the Bushie way.
....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
