I wasn't the only one who considered Bernard Kerik a peculiar choice for Homeland Security Secretary. He has an odd resume, nobody seems to know much about him. The position is less about maintaining security than adminstering an enormous & complex federal department - including the Coast Guard, FEMA, Secret Service, immigration, customs & border patrol, & the Civil Rights Office. Kerik was not qualified for this job. He looked like a substitute for Rudy Giuliani, who does have the appropriate experience from having been NYC mayor. It's good that Kerik withdrew. Tomorrow we'll find out why.
