King George again borrows from Daddy's cabinet

In yet another predictable move by his royal 28%-ness, King Georgie has tapped yet another PNAC signatory to replace the disgraced Paul Wolfowitz.  According to the AP and carried by Canada.com and BBC, former Bush 41 staffer Robert Zoellick is the current choice to head up the World Bank.

While this choice is apparently an unusual one for Bush 43 (this person actually seems to be qualified for the position to which he is to be appointed), the first rule of Georgie's appointments holds true here as well: pick from those who have been "loyal" to the Bushies in the past.

This appointment is probably a "reward" for being on his 2000 election team, as well as being one of the chief architects for the mess we currently have with getting China into the WTO.
