POLICE FOUNDATION SPENT $3,000 TO SCULPT 'KERIK THE GREAT'
Fri Dec 03 2004 11:25:19 ET

President Bush on Friday nominated former New York police commissioner Bernard Kerik to replace Tom Ridge as Homeland Security secretary.

During his time in NY, Kerik was immortalized for the ages in a 7-pound sculpture bust.

The NY Police Foundation, a nonprofit organization that raises funds for programs to support NYPD officers, quietly spent about $3,000 for 30 busts of Kerik in 2002.

The 7-pound busts of "Kerik The Great" depict him in uniform, with a mustache and with his department name tag. Each is mounted on a wooden platform.

1. I wonder if the statues have the same vacuous look in their eyes as Kerik
They should spread them out on the Florida freeways underneath the "Bush Our Leader" Clear Channel signs. Perfect.
