I don't mean to ruffle your feathers either, but what difference does it make to you who fills the position if you're not qualified to do the job and they are?

Bush's presidency, Zoellick served with Baker, by then Secretary of State, as Under Secretary of State for Economic and Agricultural Affairs, as well as Counselor to the Department (Under Secretary rank). In August 1992, Zoellick was appointed White House Deputy Chief of Staff and Assistant to the President.[6] Zoellick was also appointed Bush's personal representative for the G7 Economic Summits in 1991 and 1992.

During the 2000 U.S. presidential election campaign, Zoellick served as a foreign policy advisor to George W. Bush as part of a group, led by Condoleezza Rice, that called itself The Vulcans.


[edit] U.S. Trade Representative (2001–2005)
Zoellick was named U.S. Trade Representative at the beginning of the younger Bush's first term; he was a member of the Executive Office, with the rank of Ambassador. According to the U.S. Trade Representative website, Zoellick completed negotiations to bring China and Taiwan into the World Trade Organization (WTO); developed a strategy to launch new global trade negotiations at the WTO meeting in Doha, Qatar; shepherded Congressional action on the Jordan Free Trade Agreement and the Vietnam Trade Agreement; and worked with Congress to pass the Trade Act of 2002, which included new Trade Promotion Authority.[10] He also heavily promoted the Central American Free Trade Agreement over the objections of labor, environmental, and human rights groups.[11]

Zoellick played a key role in the United States WTO dispute against the EU over GM foods. The move sought to force GM crops and GM food on the EU, which would not otherwise accept them, or be slow to do so. [12].

During a trip to a Darfur refugee camp in 2005, Zoellick wore a bracelet with the motto, "Not on our watch." Zoellick was seen by many as the administration's strongest voice on Darfur.

[edit] Views

Well, you got the part about you lying more than Wolfowitz right; but I doubt you ever did anything for President Bush.

The only reason Zoellick was just appointed is that he is Jewish and the Likud Party has Bush by the nuts. He could have been President of the Arabian Horse Society and gotten the job.
