Homeland Security nominee has been getting rich off 9/11 just like Rudy Giuliani

The Times headline says it all: Security Post Would Put Kerik Atop Field That Enriched Him. Kerik's been busy working for Tazer Corporation to sell to police departments their stun-guns that the US military has found may not be safe for people, an issue that the Justice Department will be investigating.

And if you wanna get disgusted, check out Giuliani Partners, which goes so far as to post news stories such as this one saying:

The firm, which opened in January 2002 in affiliation with Ernst & Young, the global accounting firm, is clearly and without apology driven by the stature Mr. Giuliani gained in commanding the New York City Police Department and in guiding the city after the World Trade Center attack. It is sustained by the advice Mr. Giuliani and his partners offer in appearances they make around the nation and the world, warning audiences that more attacks are almost certainly on the way. Such predictions, of course, benefit both the former mayor's firm and the clients he has retained, many of them involved in selling terrorism preparedness products.

I'm so glad the Republicans stand for moral values....
