I read on Drudge it was a 'Nanny Gate' tax affair.
Kerik said the problematic issue arose as he was completing documents required for Senate confirmation. "I uncovered information that now leads me to question the immigration status of a person who had been in my employ as a housekeeper and nanny. It has also been brought to my attention that for a period of time during such employment required tax payments and related filings had not been made."
"I read on Drudge it was a 'Nanny Gate' tax affair."
Really too early to believe anything. Another "newsbreak" mentions a stun-gun company which sold product to Homeland Security and expected to do more. Kerik has some interest in the company.
Another "newsbreak" tells how even Ted Kennedy supported the guy, along with other major player Democrats, but minutes after the nomination was announced, an opposition group circulated an attack paper listing his vulnerabilities.
Maybe Kerik stood back and took a cold look at the landscape, then said to himself, "Who needs to go through this BS?"
