From the Washington Post in the USA:
Wolfowitz effectively blamed Riza for his predicament as well, saying that her “intractable position” in demanding a salary increase as compensation for her career disruption forced him to grant one to pre-empt a lawsuit.
He is scheduled to appear before the board this afternoon.
The board is expected to begin deliberating on how to respond as soon as tonight.
Board members are inclined to issue a resolution expressing a lack of confidence in Wolfowitz‘s leadership, senior bank officials said.
Dick Cheney (for as long as it lasts) still supports Wolfowitz.
