Wake up America....Bernard Kerik was a sign.

[spanone]

Kerik was a perfect example of how full of themselves the Bushitists have become. To choose a man who is COMPLETELY unproven on a world-scale and elevate him to the position of Head of Homeland Security can only prove that the entire Homeland Security scam is just that, a farce. Why on God's Green Earth would you pick a 'New York Cop', and I say that respectfully, to run the Homeland Security of the only Superpower on the planet earth.

1. He's a thug, a legbreaker, a goon

They want to turn homeland security into the SS.

2. Sooooooooooooooooooo True!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rucky]

3. but he protected the Saudi Royal Family

doesn't that make him qualified to work for Bushco?

4. I thought he fit right in...

Staus quo.

5. I agree but where the hell is ANY outrage from this countrys citizens?

Bush AGAIN takes no responsibility for his fuckups and the Whitewash House BLAMES Kerik... They better than anyone should know people LIE. I'm soooo sick of their shit.

9. No kidding....but I've been screaming so long

I've lost my voice.

I don't get it. Sad deal.

6. I didn't support Kerik

but I have no problem with an NYPD chief running DHS (other than the fact that I don't think the department should exist, but that's another story).

They understand first-responder issues first hand, I believe they're a bigger organization than the FBI, they have experience providing security to foreign leaders, VIPs and high-profile fixed targets, working with a wide variety of Federal agencies...

It's not Mayberry.

Maybe your objection stems from a different view of what DHS should be doing.

7. Yes, but directing the NY burbs and Homeland Security

are mighty different things. I have no trouble with a NYPD chief running Homeland Security. But I'm insulted by the choice of Kerik whom I believe was chosen because he participated in 9-11 and not because he had a level of experience needed to bring together 22 federal agencies and coordinate them to fight terrorism for our nation.

8. And what about his bench warrent. He did some pretty bad stuff.

10. My honest belief is that they have someone worse than Kerik but who

I can't even image.

[spanone]

11. I also think that the head of DHS is a bush* whipping boy

who has NO REAL POWER. Maybe Kerik smelled it in the wind.

[robre]

12. Your post makes it look like you take the position seriously.

Kerik was the perfect match for the clown car security department.

[spanone]

13. I do. n/t

[DesEtoiles]

14. there must be more to the story that has not been released

We all know the * admin does not give the first shit about any form of lawbreaking, nanny-gates, illegitmate children and questionable business deals. They would still make him HSC and say "fuck you" to the rest of us. Then they would say - take OUR moral values and stuff them up your lib ass.

There must be something more - something even worse.

15. It's the "Because I said so" administration

Faith-based poppycock is the order of the day.
