Okay, okay, one more poke at Kerik

Maru points out that at Giuliani Partners, to where Mr. Kerik is supposed to slink back, a core principle is integrity. Quoted from GP's website:

Integrity requires carefully developing and upholding a set of inviolable beliefs. People of integrity are not inflexible, but their decisions are made in the context of strongly held values. Principled leaders must not only set a moral compass, but also effectively communicate a code of conduct to those they lead. They are obligated to remain faithful to their core convictions in order to demand and inspire the same in others.

And I might add that accountability is another...

Accountability means measuring results throughout an organization and holding people responsible for their performance. The ability to measure performance accurately is critical to any organization looking to improve efficiency and ensure success. A system of measurement motivates employees and decision-makers alike. Accountability enables leaders to identify problems more effectively and make solutions pervasive throughout an organization.

Say one thing. Do the opposite. It's patriotic.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
