North of the bridge is the only place to be. Detroit and Lansing are just black holes in troll land that our tax dollars disappear into with a giant sucking sound.

If he is not guilty by and from association, I don’t know who is.

I have never been aware of someone with so many dirty affiliations that is not in jail.
Clintons excepted.

Monica Conyers, the wife of John(impeach Bush) Conyers is one who sits on Detroit City Council. She has supported Kilpatrick all the way while the majority of the Council are trying to remove him. She is also being investigated for kickbacks by the FBI on a sludge contract and hasn’t shown up for council meetings for a month. Not to mention a highly publicized bar fight she got into earlier this year.

Michigan Attorny General Cox will likely be announcing felony assault charges against Kilpatrick tomorrow AM. The vast majority of people in this area want him gone. The spineless politicians and business leaders have been pretty much silent but after the jail sentence Thursday many are calling for Kilpatrick to resign. His days are numbered but he refuses to leave only looking after himself instead of the city he claims to love.

Kwame only needs to continue dragging this out till November and he gets his lifetime pension. $125,000 a year for life.

Side note to Connie-whichever browser you use-Internet Explorer or Firefox or Safari, or whatever-try downloading a different browser and you might be able to get to Powerline.
I used a funky font on a post done in Firefox, and IE couldn’t read it. Good luck!

Michigan has a Canadian governor.

Bah! We’re half way there! Come on, State Department- you have a low hurdle to jump now, get on with it! Threaten to starve their governor by imposing sanctions on maple syrup, poutine and Clamato until they take possession. He won’t last long.

Yeah, unfortunately his future astounding things will involve the use of prison soap in a deal for cigarettes.

I’m in the Detroit metro area, moving from Flint over 20 years ago, so I have plenty of experience with both. i can tell you with certainty, both need to be leveled to the ground and rebuilt. The union entitlement mentality has stolen the sole of the residents. I can’t begin to explain the far away look in people’s eyes when this once great area is discussed. Too many things area wrong and no solutions but the same old same old. The only near term hope is the possibility of Dave Bing running for mayor.

God help us, we need it.

Could be worse. My computer will go weeks where I simply cannot open PowerLine. I have pretty much given up on going there. I have no problems at HotAir (h/t Mark Jaquith!).

No one at PowerLine, their tech guy, MicroSoft, Dell, or NetGear can tell me why. Just incompatible.

Good grief! Obama will have to request a whole fleet of buses from Ray Nagin at this rate. Apparently, the New Orleans mayor didn’t have a use for them.

Detroit: Kilpatrick Not Obama’s Only Problem…

No doubt you’ll be seeing more of this video of Obama praising Kwame Kilpatrick at Hot Air. But that’s not all the political fun Detroit holds for Obama. Back in May a columnist at the Toledo Blade was already pointing…
