Bernard Kerik Falls From Grace


Who's Sorry Now?

Bernard Kerik, the ex-top cop in New York City. He was even considered for the top Homeland Security position in 2004. Apparently he's a wannabe gangsta, like everyone else associated with the GOP, apparently.

"Bernard Kerik once enjoyed a national reputation as a brash, self-made law enforcer. As New York's police commissioner, he was at Mayor Rudolph Giuliani's side during the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks. By late 2004, President Bush wanted him for homeland security chief. Kerik's fame faded after allegations of ethical lapses doomed his nomination. His troubles, however, have endured. A grand jury in the Bronx has been hearing testimony about a possible corruption case against Kerik involving reputed mob associates, alleged influence peddling and a questionable home-renovation project."
