DETROIT -- Former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick went on a shopping spree during his first full day in jail, spending $40 on food, toiletries and XXXL long johns.
Records released Friday to the Detroit Free Press and The Detroit News show Kilpatrick's purchases included granola bars, barbecue potato chips, shampoo and $2 worth of Vaseline.
In late October, Kilpatrick began serving a 120-day sentence for obstruction of justice and assault. With good behavior, he could be out of jail after 100 days.
Kilpatrick was in a scandal that involved courtroom lies, sex with a top aide and incriminating text messages.
The Wayne County jail did not release the names of Kilpatrick's visitors. He reported to jail in a business suit and had 18 pairs of socks and $67.

Happy Kwanzaa, you honky mook!
When you think of it, this is the perfect American holiday: A pretend holiday for a pretend presidency!

Lots of smirking on this thread. I worked in a prison for a year. One year working in one will wipe the smug smiles right off your faces....
This guy screwed up, he's paying the price. Shut up and try to have some class...

"No he celebrates Obamadan" Wasn't there a group of "Messiah" worshipers trying to make Nov. 5 a national "Obamadan day"?
I bet they will try make Jan 20 another "Obamadan" holiday as well.

Kilpatrick sure didn't waste any time stocking up with it, did he. Makes you wonder what else was going on in the mayors office.

The Vaseline is normally used for lubrication for masturbation......it’s a crime to have sex with other inmates. Any other questions?

Some years ago I did 160 days in jail for drunk driving. Trust me, these jokes won’t hurt anyone’s feelings.

Some inmates also use vaseline on their hair and to moisten their skin. In some prisons they sell Georgia Peach instead.

If you can’t do the time don’t do the crime. Besides it is like MSM gave us a gift of jokes that write themselves.
