I'm listening about "Brownie's" resume. Where did Chertoff come from

[NMDemDist2]

what is his background to make him qualified as Sec. of HS?

Is he a law and order guy? a military guy? a security guy? where did he come from? or is he also someone's college roommate?

9. Chertoff is a longtime GOP party legal operative. He's been snaking around

all the political operators for decades, and was even involved in the background pushing impeachment against Clinton. He's ALL political animal.

10. he was counsel for the Senate "Whitewater" committee per his resume

things are starting to fall into place now.....

14. Chertoff in the middle 90s

was involved witha NJ Sports Authority scandal--- where DeLoitte & Touche played a minor role.

He may have been connected to the defense of the Patterson crew who helped do the first WTC Bombing--- circa 92-93

He hails from Moutainside NJ.

16. Here's a pragraph from an article that came up with patterson-wtc-

and chertoff -

"It is ironic that Chertoff was a defense attorney for likely terrorist Dr. Elamir just as Lynne Stewart was a defense attorney for a terrorist advocate, Abdel Rahman, who was caught in a sting operation mounted by Chertoff and FBI provocateurs who were intentionally not stopped from carrying out the WTC bombing. While Stewart has been indicted on disputed and thrown out charges using highly questionable wiretaps known about and possibly authorized by Chertoff, Chertoff has yet to be asked to explain his improprieties, conflicts of interest and immorality for helping to promote the 1993 WTC bombing and for not having Chertoff’s client Dr. Elamir and his brother Mohammed Elamir adequately investigated and charged when Chertoff was head of the criminal division of DOJ."

17. check out some of these sites.....

Chertoff has been involved in alot of questionable activities, including advising the CIA on torture and interrogations (see NYTimes article listed under Oilempire site). He gives me the creeps.
