King Kwame Gets The Kage

Kwame’s Kingdom has now come to a very predictable end. We knew what was going to happen, we just didn’t know how long it would take.

There was no way that this guy would resign. He’d have to be taken out in ‘cuffs. Well, in essence that is exactly what has happened with his plea bargain agreement. The man who always thought that he was above the law, has learned that he isn’t.

He will now resign, and starting in late October, he get’s four months behind bars.

In his court statements, he was contrite and subdued. I’ll give him one little iota of credit for that. The arrogance was gone. The King sounded just like any other common criminal who has finally learned something.

But let’s remember the lies upon lies. We don’t know, and probably never will, all of the corruption under this guy’s watch, or directly under his hand. He is deserving of more penalty than he’s getting.

So ends another depressing chapter in Detroit’s history. There will be more, until a level of professionalism, honesty and accountability trumps racism, favoritism and greed in Detroit politics.

But here’s a late-breaking development in the case….

Governor Jennifer Granholm has just announced a Board of Inquiry, which will investigate a process for removing the Mayor from office.

Good going Jennifer! Great timing. Way to come to the party. Or should I say; way to succumb to the Party. She is absolutely inept. Indecisive and nothing but a Party hack. Michigan deserves more than her or the present City of Detroit.
