Kerik Pulls Out

Looks like they're going to have to find someone else for this job.

I think it would have been a rather interesting situation if Kerik had actually gotten the position at DHS. For one thing, it might have actually ben good in terms of securing more funding for NYC, since he was once the commish. On the other hand, the civil rights violations on his watch, not to mention his collosal failure to build a respectable police force in Iraq, make it clear that he wasn't going to work out.

Still, it brings out the fact that the closed circle of people being given access to power in this government is getting even smaller, and with all these cabinet members who have quit, at some point, it's really going to hit the fan.

NEXT!?!
