Gooniani's goon withdraws because of nanny. Does this crack you up?
The same party that tells us to hate foreigners has their nominee for homeland security withdraw because he hired an illegal. Irony is so ironic.

3. Oh, not the nanny excuse again!
Maybe he just wanted to spend more time with his family.

5. Well according to Democracy Now! it's not just about the nanny...
"Newsweek uncovered that an arrest warrant was issued for Kerik as recently as six years ago over a dispute involving unpaid bills. The 1998 warrant was issued as part of a series of lawsuits relating to unpaid bills on his condominium in New Jersey.

The New York Daily News reports that Kerik had illegally accepted thousands of dollars in cash and gifts while a public official. A Daily News probe revealed that for many years, one of Kerik's main benefactors was Lawrence Ray. Ray was later indicted on unrelated federal charges tied to what the Daily News called a "$40 million, mob-run, pump-and-dump stock swindle."

The Washington Post reports that nine employees of the hospital Kerik worked at providing security in Saudi Arabia accused him of using his policing powers to pursue the personal agenda of his immediate boss.

Questions have also been raised about Kerik's misuse of police power while the head of the New York police department. In one example, he was fined for using the services of three police officers to help research his autobiography "The Lost Son." He was also accused of sending homicide police officers to question Fox News journalists after the book's publisher, Judith Regan, lost a mobile phone after an interview at the Fox studios. It turned out to have just been misplaced.

Kerik has also coming under close scrutiny for his windfall profit from stock options in stun-gun manufacturer, Taser International. He netted over $5.5 million on the options, without ever having invested any of his own money.

Questions have also raised about his failure in Iraq to train a new Iraqi police force. Kerik went to Iraq for a six month tour of duty to help rebuild the Iraqi police force but he abruptly left after just three months..."

Oh. And there was testimony he had to deliver last week in a civil lawsuit vis a vis an affair he'd had with a subordinate. It IS funny they brought up ONLY the nanny. I love it when people are unaware of the origin of their child care givers. Especially given the resources available to him personally. He cares THAT MUCH about his kids!


How embarrassing for Giuliani! :7
