She can't run Hewlett Packard, one of the world's largest computer companies, right and now they want to make her head of the World Bank? What is wrong with people.
To: NormsRevenge
Perfect. Incompetent CEO moved to position where she can do more damage.

This could be good for California but not so sure about the world.

Maybe she can do for the World Bank what she did for HP. Every cloud has a silver lining.

Perfect Peter Principle Payoff Proposal!

First she destroyed Lucent Technologies, then ran HP into the ground. Now,...THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
To: NormsRevenge
Hah! Fio, I dareya - you can't screw up the World Bank any more than it already is! Hear me? I double-dog dare ya!
To: NormsRevenge
Fiorina is incompetant. No one who demonstrates an aptitude for failure should be promoted.
To: Petronski
A job at the World Bank could also be a step toward entering the world of politics, which many observers had predicted Fiorina would do after her stint at HP.
"If she has aspirations to go into politics, this would be a way to recover from the HP thing," said Enderle. "It could be a powerful intermediate step to politics."
As HP CEO, Fiorina was known for maintaining a high profile, including meeting with world leaders such as Nelson Mandela.
The thought of her taking her "business acumen" into the government should scare the heck out of folks.

Not the "world". Just the "World Bank" which is a horse of an entirely different hue.
I'd love for somebody to run the World Bank into the ground.

Perfect. Incompetent CEO moved to position where she can do more damage. Well...do keep in mind a former World Bank President...Robert F. McNamara (after his Vietnam tour-de-force). Maybe it's a tradition!

What is the fixation that people have with this woman?
To: NormsRevenge
Carly screwed up Lucent. Carly screwed up HP.
Sure, why not give her a shot at the World Bank?

My recommendation to them:
The fact that you would even consider Carly Fiorina (late of Lucent and HP) as your President says volumes about your business intelligence. Why not let me be the president? At least I haven't proven my incompetence by screwing up two major US corporations.

Has she slept with that many leaders?
To: NormsRevenge
Is there any conceivable reason the Bush administration would actually choose her for this position, or is this just a plant in the media by some of her pals to make her seem like a major player? Seems like the latter to me....
