Video: Angry Detroit mayor attacks media, foes
« on: March 12, 2008, 02:19:48 PM »
DETROIT (AP) - Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick has lashed out at his opponents and the news media in the aftermath of the scandal over his exchange of sexy test messages with a former top aide.

It happened Tuesday night at the end of his State of the City address, which till then had only a brief allusion to the text-message controversy.

The case has led to a criminal probe of whether Kilpatrick lied under oath when he denied the affair.

After an hour-long prepared address focusing on development plans and economic initiatives, Kilpatrick said he and his family have received threats and racial slurs in recent weeks.

He says Detroit broadcasters are putting their own ratings ahead of his family's safety with their intense coverage of the scandal.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Once again, the real crime is exposing a criminal (if he is a democrat).

Once again, the real crime is exposing a criminal (if he is a democrat).

But it's racism.  You can never point out the shortcomings, or crimes for that matter, of a black democrat.
I feel that once a black fella has referred to white foks as "honky paleface devil white-trash cracker redneck Caspers," he's abdicated the right to get upset about the "N" word. But that's just me. -- Jim Goad
