Putting the cart before the horse

From the WaPo:

World Bank President Paul D. Wolfowitz said yesterday that he is the victim of a "smear campaign" designed to portray him as unethical and an ineffective leader and that he will "not give in to such tactics" by resigning.

Oh, Wolfie. We already knew you were unethical and an ineffective leader thanks to your performance in selling the Iraq War. Your current actions demonstrate that you're also slimy and that you put your ladyfriend on some sort of sexual retainer.

You. Are. Icky.
