...pumped-up €54 billion stock and cash deal, effectively putting himself out of a job. But don't feel too sorry for him: Landau stands to make at least €10.5 million in severance and maybe twice as much once benefits and gains from stock options kick in. The disclosure caused a ruckus in France ; the UNSA union called it "organized racketeering with the firm's cash." Quizzed about the payout, Landau said it wasn't part of the deal with Sanofi and that he hadn't "had time to make the calculation" of its size. Heinz-Werner Meier...

Woodward's book will feed the endless, fruitless speculation among the President's critics about the nature of his certainty, his allergic reaction to doubt or introspection. Is it religious, Oedipal or congenital? No doubt the President gets a kick out of these sorts of mind games. He probably enjoys the secular left's discomfort with his religious references as much as he "enjoyed" going up against the stony Gen eral Assembly (and despite a few awkward moments, he probably had a ball frustrating the reporters who asked him to admit mistakes or make apologies in his recent press conference...
