2. He was the NYC police chief when 9/11 happened,
and since then, it seems to me, has capitalized on that event for his political ambitions, just like Giuliani. He campaigned actively and visibly for Bush during for the presidential election.

4. Oh.... Thank You. I've seen the guy on t.v. and think he was the one who
went to Iraq to train the Iraqi police force there... please forgive me for saying this but he has somewhat of a scary appearance.

6. Yes, that's him.
If you watched him campaigning for Bush, like his town-hall debate with General Clark, you won't have any confidence with him, the way he answered questions, as secretary of homeland security. I sure don't. Damn it.

3. Geesus........
I wish I had a bunker to go to for the next 4 years. Bu$h isn't satisfied unless he puts the biggest,most radical scumbags in...I feel so sad for this country. Bu$h and his thugs are making this country worse than any other country in the world.All white trash peppered with a few uncle Tom's to make it look good.....and the ignorant people in this country eats it up. I see no hope....they've took it over and they won't stop until this country is trashed completely. :scared: :puke:

5. You can say that again.
You'd think Bush would at least choose someone with more experience for this important cabinet-level job. The way I see it, it was tit-for-tat. Kerik helped Bush to win, so he gets a cabinet-level job in return. God help this country.

"You scratch my back,I'll scratch yours" is their mantra. Our country is going to be suffering so much with those lunatics at the helm....it's sickening. :puke:

10. Ahk!! He's the idiot who always is on Hannity/Colmes
It seems when they can't find anyone else to defend Bush, they bring him on and he and Hannity always have on-screen trysts where they moan about how the sky is going to fall if Bush isn't the Fuhrer. Constantly attacks Democrats and praises Republicans. Another partisan hackjob who is likely absolutely unqualified.

15. More proof the chimp is a divider
He picks the most radical rightwingnuts he can find. I have never seen a more partisan "pRESIDENT" than what bu$h is. Everyone has to be a repuke to get appointed. I hate that lousy divisive bastard.

17. In a New York minute!
Pardon the pun...LOL. I really believe he would shoot anyone that didn't fall on their knees and worship Jesus Bu$h.

16. oh, how do i agree with you... that is what bush is doing to this country.
i am reminded of the movie tea with mussolini and the brittish ladies especially maggie smith's character who could not believe that mussoline was a jackbooted thug preparing italy for the jackboot grip, and how they were shocked when the jackbooted nazi thugs came jackbooting everyone insight ...... i think bush is setting those who can still not see his reality for a big awakening and a nasty surprise.

14. it's good to have an experienced MIHOPer at the helm

RIP, America. You certainly had your moments...
