Disgraced Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick Charged With Perjury

Detroit’s corrupt Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, despite being voted 7-1 to step down by the city council and more recently, facing 8 felony counts of perjury by obstructing the justice, still asserts his innocence and refuses to submit a resignation, claiming, that in the end, “my big dumb ass will prevail.” Some people…they just don’t know when to eat their shit balloon, and Kwame is fixin’ to scarf himself a feast!

Hours after Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy announced that Kilpatrick would face eight felony counts, some members of the Legislature — many who have not commented since the text message scandal exploded — urged Kilpatrick to step down.

“Too many things are at stake,” said Senate Majority Leader Michael Bishop, R-Rochester. “The revitalization of the core business district, the creation of new jobs, safe and productive learning environments for the children, safety of families, the fundamental sense of trust and confidence our citizens have for their government — we simply cannot afford to let it all slip away under this cloud of controversy.”

Kwame’s failure to step down and accept responsibility for his actions has continued to cause the city of Detroit nothing but problems, and his tenure in office is proving to be of negative impact, damaging hope for all. Basically, Kilpatrick is just one big failure at life whose election can be credited to much luck, swindle, and highly questionable tactics.

Some officials expressed dismay that the scandal has hurt their ability to fight for money and support for the city.

“No public officeholder works in isolation,” said Wayne County Executive Robert Ficano. “The mayor must personally weigh how difficult it will be to work with the stakeholders in this region while he is facing these serious charges.”
