Why is the 'liberal' media not putting Chertoff under a microscope?
It's very peculiar.

I remember Kerik being grilled constantly. I'm glad Kerik is not the secretary of Homeland Security, but Chertoff is even worse.

But, you know what?

Chertoff is not being put under a microscope, he is not being grilled. Why?

I say it's time we blast the media about this.

Find a Chertoff scandal and send it to everybody you know.

If you need a Chertoff scandal, I will give you one.

1. It's the RW bait & switch
We use up all our ammo on the first nominee and when the 2nd comes along, our guns are spent and we're tired from the fight - look at Robert Bork, then we get Scalia instead.

If we fight hard against Gonzalez, who comes next? Roy Moore?

5. Bingo. Over and over they do this!!!!
The MSM is too impatient to do the same story twice. "Oh, another sleaze-bag nominee? That's SO last month!"

Makes it incredibly easy for them to put someone out there to take all the arrows, drag away the corpse, and put up someone new. But no arrows this time!

4. We have the dirt on Chertoff
The 'liberal' media doesn't want to report it though.
