The body of the article comprises 687 words, not one of which is “Democrat.” Or even “demo” case-insensitive.

After January 23rd Momma Kilpatrick ( possibly the brains of this outfit) will no longer be a Congresswomen and John Conyers will no longer be the head of the House Judiciary Committee.

Mamma Kilpatrick has been subpoenaed by a grand jury and Conyers Wife is in da Big House..

So how soon after Jan 23rd will the Detroit FBI swoop down on these two clowns and bring them up on changes? The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

How can they be sweaky clean? It doesn't pass the common sense smell test...

Statement: "Imprisoned ex-Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick was indicted Wednesday on new corruption charges, and his father, Bernard Kilpatrick, also was implicated ..."

Response: "Our Diversity Is Our Strength!"

Comment: I guess they felt that the family that is corrupt together stays together!

Too bad we can’t get them to issue indictments against sitting members of Congress.

I still think Kwame is a positive example for the black community in as much as he knows who his father is.

“Anything new about the murdered stripper?”

She’s still dead but I have a feeling she will soon be speaking from the grave as a witness in court where a murder trial(s) will someday be held.

they used the words “detroit” and “mayor.” to add “democrat” would be redundant.
