Not By Loyalty Alone Should They Be Judged (re: Michael Chertoff)
Not By Loyalty Alone Shall They Be Judged

I was wrong and for this I apologize. In previous columns, I claimed that loyalty to George Bush constituted the essential, if not the sole, prerequisite for a Cabinet appointment.

1. Chertoff is author of Patriot Act . another fox guarding the hens
Mike "big brother" Chertoff failing and falling upward..
Rewarded for his incompetence as # 2 in Justice and past ties to alleged terrorist Elamir..could be Czar of bushevik DHS , the crown jewel in fascist roverland

"According to a June 20, 2000 article in the The Record of Bergen County, New Jersey, Chertoff defended accused terrorist financier Dr. Magdy Elamir."

"Tom Fitton, president of Judicial Watch, a government advocacy watchdog agency, has noticed Chertoff's advancement from Assistant Attorney General of the Department of Justice to Secretary of Homeland Security nominee over the past four years.
"It's an exceptional rise to power," said Fitton.
Michael Chertoff's record at the Justice Dept. has followed the same downward arc as a belly-flop. He's managed to botch every major case he's handled and elicit the well-deserved scorn of civil liberties groups. Only in the gravity-defying world of G.W. Bush, where reality is routinely run through a public relations shredder, would a bungler like Chertoff reach the top-spot at Homeland Security. Even so, his appointment should come as no surprise to the wary American public. It's just one more horse-nugget added to an already ample mound of political manure."
