Kwame: He Just Keeps Going and Going...

Former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick is in trouble again. This time it's with the Feds, who have brought about 19 charges against him. They involve fraud and tax evasion, and if convicted, he could face decades in prison.

Just when it seems that things can't get worse, they do. Yet we should not be shocked to see that a man who has displayed great arrogance in both his personal and political lives should be suspected of even more arrogance. Soliciting funds for personal use under the guise of charity is simply despicable.

But not surprising. Detroit does not need more negative publicity yet the former Mayor appears more than willing to give it to us anyway. If we have set him up for a comeback, as he said we did we he left office, it will after this be a very impressive return indeed.
