Editorial: The Great disgrace of Detroit — Kwame Kilpatrick

I write this editorial today, not with smugness or with an attitude of haughtiness, But one of sadness and dismay for my beloved city in which I grew up. I sit here tonight at 4:19 A.M. absolutely disgusted by what I read about the Mayor of the City of Detroit.

It seems that Detroit’s Democrat Mayor, Kwame Kilpatrick is involved, in yet, another scandal. This is because Kilpatrick supposedly “pulled strings” to get some Baptist Preacher off some Prostitution Charges.

Local Station WXYZ-TV’s Steve Wilson has the story:

I simply am going to ask this, What in the name of the Almighty God, is it going to take for Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick to resign as Detroit’s Mayor? Will it take dragging his poor mother through the mud? Will it take the State of Michigan to file charges against this man and him possibly him ending up in jail, and ruining his family?

How is it that a man, who seems to believe that he is on some sort of Messianic mission to be the Mayor of the City of Detroit, can simply be deluded enough in his own mind to believe that he is above the law? Christians are no more above the law, than anyone else in this wonderful Country of ours. The very idea that the Mayor of the City Detroit knowingly lied under oath to protect himself and his female lover for a lawsuit speaks to the very core of the Kilpatrick’s soul. In that soul, I see not a man who has been changed by Christ, but rather a dark soul, who will do anything to avoid being held accountable for his actions.

Yet, when the very citizens of the city that Kilpatrick was sworn to serve, attempt to hold Kilpatrick accountable. People like the local Detroit media, the first that that this liberal thug likes to play is, of course, the race card.

“I have never been called…. A nigger”


They were the words that sent shockwaves around this city. An African-American Democrat Mayor, who just months previous to this had marched with the N.A.A.C.P. to ceremonially bury the N-Word forever was now lashing out at those who dared to question him about his conduct, while in office.

What started out as a local story, has now evolved, into national disgrace, a disgrace to the Democrat Party; of which Presidential hopeful Barack Obama was not seen with, at all, for fear it would hurt his campaign. A disgrace to all of the African-America leaders who gave their lives, got their heads beaten in, all so some Mayor could act like he was above the law.

However, is not that what Socialism is, an attitude of entitlement? You must give me this, because I am black? It is certainly, what the Democrat Party promotes in their ideology.

It is anyone’s guess how this will all play out. If Kilpatrick had any semblance of common sense; which seems to be in short supply within the Democrat Party these days, (just look who is running for President), Kilpatrick would resign and give the City of Detroit it’s sense of dignity back.

However, I know that will not happen. Because in Kilpatrick’s mind, Jesus put him in that position and only Jesus will get him out.

That, my friends, is the disgrace of Detroit.

Tell everyone you know about this video. It is important that everyone know, how the Democrats are lying about ANWR.

Memo to Arianna Huffington: Will you please, just shut the hell up??!?!?!

Why do people give this feckless idiot Woman (and I use the term quite loosely…) a pulpit to spew? Why?!

Therefore, I am not “angry” or “outraged” or “howling that Mr. Obama is selling out the left.” And his “policy switches” haven’t given me “whiplash.” I am not offended that he isn’t marching in lockstep with progressives. I’d be worried if he was marching in lockstep with anyone. Other than himself. And that is the point I was trying to make.

My problem isn’t that Barack Obama doesn’t always agree with me. My problem is that Barack Obama has started to not always agree with himself — falling prey instead to the Conventional Wisdom sirens. – Arianna Huffington: The Latest Media Blind Spot: Viewing All Criticism of Obama Through a Right/Left Prism.

Quite frankly, who gives two shits what this refugee from Greece thinks? I mean, really. This is the same woman who KNOWINGLY married a Bi-Sexual man, but when it was exposed, they divorced and she got a nice chuck of change… (Reference: GQ magazine, 1999 profile of Michael Huffington)

I think if Barack Obama wants to win this election, He needs to put that Marbled Mouthed Greece immigrant on terminal ignore till November. It would be the best thing he could do for his campaign.

Now this, I don't get at all…

(H/T to Think Progress)

Via The Washington Post:

Republicans were not alone in that response. Michael E. O’Hanlon, a Democratic defense analyst at the Brookings Institution who has been an outspoken supporter of the war in Iraq, said he could not believe that Obama would put such a definitive timeline into print before a trip to Iraq, where he is to consult with Iraqi leaders and U.S. commanders.

“To say you’re going to get out on a certain schedule — regardless of what the Iraqis do, regardless of what our enemies do, regardless of what is happening on the ground — is the height of absurdity,” said O’Hanlon, who described himself as “livid.” “I’m not going to go to the next level of invective and say he shouldn’t be president. I’ll leave that to someone else.”

The reason I don’t get it is, because what Obama wrote in that Op-Ed piece was basically his primary stump speech with some very minor refinements to it. So, why anyone on the Democrat side would be “Livid” about it, as they this guy put it, is well beyond me. In other words, Obama did not say anything different, than he did in the primary, he just updated it to reflect current events.

Now his point about Obama going to Iraq, I can see that point. But for him to become upset about what was written, I don’t get that, at all.

Hope, Change, Flip Flop, Edit Website!

When the message is not fitting the current events, what do you do? Edit your website.

The New York Daily News reports:

Barack Obama’s campaign scrubbed his presidential Web site over the weekend to remove criticism of the U.S. troop “surge” in Iraq, the Daily News has learned.

The presumed Democratic nominee replaced his Iraq issue Web page, which had described the surge as a “problem” that had barely reduced violence.

“The surge is not working,” Obama’s old plan stated, citing a lack of Iraqi political cooperation but crediting Sunni sheiks – not U.S. military muscle – for quelling violence in Anbar Province.

The News reported Sunday that insurgent attacks have fallen to the fewest since March 2004.

Obama’s campaign posted a new Iraq plan Sunday night, which cites an “improved security situation” paid for with the blood of U.S. troops since the surge began in February 2007.

It praises G.I.s’ “hard work, improved counterinsurgency tactics and enormous sacrifice.”

Campaign aide Wendy Morigi said Obama is “not softening his criticism of the surge. We regularly update the Web site to reflect changes in current events.”

GOP rival John McCain zinged Obama as a flip-flopper. “The major point here is that Sen. Obama refuses to acknowledge that he was wrong,” said McCain, adding that Obama “refuses to acknowledge that it [the surge] is succeeding.”

B. Hussein Obama, Website Editor in chief. I love it! 😆 😛 😀 😉

However, the left would just say, what about all the times that the George W. Bush Administration changed their message, as the Iraq dissolved into chaos in 2004? How many times did they change their reasoning for even being there?

Of course, the Republican Neo-Cons are wetting themselves over this, and I’ll put the various ones in down at the end.

The way I see it, he’s coming towards the center, instead of pandering to the hard left, which is what he did in the primary, which is what the Congress did in the 2006 election. I’m personally glad to see that he’s trying to prove himself not to be another Dennis Kucinich, but rather a more moderate progressive, who is more pragmatic, than idealistic. This could very well help him in the general election. I think.

Living proof that Big Government is out of control Government!

(H/T to The Next Right)

Want to see a perfect example of an out of control Government?

Then head on over to Salon.com and read a harrowing tale of a Pilot, who recently flew on a plane.

Unbelievable.

John Henke rightly says:

Many years ago, the Right actively told the story of just how harmful government really was to society. But then Republicans took control of government and we basically stopped telling that story. As a result – and even thought government is far larger – the public and the media pay far less attention to the costs and consequences government; instead, they are clamoring for even bigger government.

He is so right, until this Nation wakes up and realizes the Big Government is NOT solution, we will be in much trouble. It will be up to the Republican Party to to get back to it’s morals of small and limited Government and limited spending. The Globalist agenda and big Government agenda of this President has totally ruined that party. Hopefully people like me, John Henke and many others can bring the Conservatives back to senses and make the realize that the more that gets done, without the Governments help, the better.

Newsbusters Hyperventalites because Chris Matthew……told the truth, for a change!

This is too funny, The Republican Conservatives are ticked off, because Chris Matthews told the truth about them, for a change.

On Monday’s “Hardball” Chris Matthews was so upset about the New Yorker’s cover, depicting Barack Obama in a turban and Michelle Obama toting an AK-47, because he feared “the right will be using that as t-shirt material within the next couple of weeks.” –Matthews Worries ‘Right’ Will Turn New Yorker Cover into T-Shirt | NewsBusters.org.

What’s the matter Geoffrey, the truth a little hard to handle? Quite frankly, with all the e-mails floating around, that were started by the Republican Operatives, I’m surpised you haven’t seen one.

Me thnks that Mr. Dickens neens to take off the rose colored glasses.

Townhall.com's Carol Platt Liebau asks….

This:

Could someone point to me someone — anyone — of any stature in the Republican Party or the conservative movement who has shopped the idea that Barack is a Muslim (it was, of course, Hillary Clinton who said he was a Christian “as far as [she] know[s]”)? Or a terrorist who’s hand-in-glove with Osama bin Laden?

Yeah, Sure, I will. How about 90% of your damn base? Someone seriously needs to get this woman some glasses, because, it’s quite obvious she’s quite the vision impaired person.

I am not a Obama fan, not by a long shot. But this right here, is why the Republican Party is going to get thier asses handed to them on a platter come November, and quite honestly, no one is more deserving of that.

It just seems to me, that the Republican Party has been taken over by a disease and that is a bad case of inherit stupidity. 🙄

Yeah, I know, she said Stature, but you know, it doesn’t matter WHOM it’s coming from, it’s very damn point that it’s even coming.

Update: Before anyone says, “Hey, what about you?” Let me say this, okay? 90% of what I say in here, in relation to Obama being a Muslim or terrorist or anything else, is said in jest. I know that he is not a terrorist. Duh, I’m not that stupid. My biggest gripe with the Republicans, is their operatives who DO spread these rumors as fact. Obviously Carol does not see the e-mails that float around. 🙄

Man, talk about a dumb bitch who needs to wake up and smell the coffee… wow! 😮 😯

On the Offshore Ban Lift

Yes, I have have heard about lifting the Ban of offshore drilling.

The good news is, it will help, in the long run. The bad news is, it will not help anytime soon.

Of course, I’d be willing to bet that the Dems will obstruct this. What needs to happen is, the Enron Loophole needs to be closed, like yesterday. Between the two, prices would come down.

Other than that, I don’t see a quick solution.

Barry's Campaign is hurting for cash….

Barry’s Campaign manager has released a video, in which he says mean ‘ol John McCain is raising more money then him.

Click to Watch Video

Well, if Barry had not opted out of public campaign financing, maybe he would have the money to go up against mean ol’ John McCain, but no, he wanted to run a completely supporter financed campaign, and now he’s being out funded.

Two Words come to mind…..

Tough Shit

It might be because people are seeing B. Hussein Obama for what he really is! An Empty Suit, who says what people want to hear, instead of the real, on the ground, truth.
