Former Polish prime minister Kazimierz Marcinkiewicz has withdrawn his name from consideration for the top post at PKO BP. In his blog, Marcinkiewicz blames the decision on the whole controversy surrounding his candidacy, which would have made his job much more difficult. Marcinkiewicz points a stern finger at the media, as well as the financial and banking circles, from which he"did not received any form of support." Shocking, no support for a man who has not managed any financial institution in his life.
Marcinkiewicz, who sounds a note of indignation, does go into details about the ambitious plans he had for PKO. He also points out all the experiences that would have made him a great PKO chief executive: he did study banking and finance at the Szczecin University (he never got the doctorate degree he started there) and his work on the public finances committee in the parliament. Oh, and he ran a school and a country. So, there!
Is it me, or is Marcinkiewicz getting more disconnected from reality?
UPDATE: I forgot to mention that in Szczecin, Marcinkiewicz studied under his later finance minister, Teresa Lubinska. Prof. Lubinska didn't exactly shine at that post, even calling for a larger federal deficit and attacking foreign supermarkets before being sacked.

.. hello ..
.. what do you think about Ludwik Dorn's resignation? ..
Dorn is officially on holiday until we know the reasons for this. Speculation runs riot.
As for Marcinkiewicz. He is now being tipped for a job with the European Organization for Development and ...something...
Just what a physics teacher knows about thees things is about as clear as....well...theoretical physics...
I must say that this Dorn puzzles me still. I just don't get the weird machinations inside PiS. Or, perhaps, it's like they say: The rats are the first to leave the sinking ship...
