You get a nice view of the Detroit skyline from the Windsor side. Safer too. :)

This is no big deal for a dem.

If he would only admit to having smoked dope and crack, he too could be presidential material.

Giles comments came after Kilpatrick told the judge he had been living under incredible pressure for the last seven months.

“I don’t believe that there is a person that’s ever been through this process that respects it more than I do,” Kilpatrick said, referring to the legal proceedings stemming from the eight felonies ranging from conspiracy to perjury to misconduct in office to obstruction of justice filed against him in March.

“Last week was a tremendous wake-up call to me,” he said, referring to Giles’ rebuke last month after he allegedly assaulted law enforcement officials trying to serve a subpoena.

Kilpatrick admitted violating the terms of his bond by traveling to Windsor without notifying the court. He said he was sorry.

“My life has been revolutionarily transformed and it’s transforming in front of the eye of these media people who don’t know me at all,” he said, referring to what he called intense scrutiny. “Your honor, I ask for your forgiveness ... it will never happen again.”

Where's it worst? Ohio, according to our analysis, which racked up four of the 10 cities on our list: Youngstown, Canton, Dayton and Cleveland. The runner-up is Michigan, with two cities--Detroit and Flint--making the ranking.

Guess there will be one less resident.

Rex,

About a week ago, Google it.

They went to serve his buddy Ferguson with a Subpoena. His Bud was hanging out (or so they thought) at his sister-in-laws house who happens to be married to Kawame's sister. Kawame was their and lost it and allegedly tossed a County Sheriff(s) ( unarmed ) off the porch and swearing. Note he has his posse of body guards with him who are usually armed. I do not want to go their as to what could have happened had not the Sheriffs backed off.
