"Kym Worthy amended charges against Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, accusing the mayor of lying about other previously unreported extramarital affairs." http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs .dll/article?AID=/20080722/NEW S01/80722080 Kwame responded by stating that Worthy "hopes that the racism in the region will convict him instead of the issues of the law and justice”. http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs .dll/article?AID=/20080722/NEW S01/80722052 After hearing him say that I came to the conclusion that He may have had an affair with a white woman. If Worthy can produce a white mistress, Kwame's remaining support in the city will quickly evaporate. Young black women ages 18-35 have supported Kwame through thick and thin. However, I doubt they'll overlook an indiscretion with a white woman. |

Interesting. I had the same thought after reading the articles. |

It's not about WHO he was having booty calls with, it's about the lies on the stand. It wouldn't matter to me if the person were black or white, red or yellow... guilty is guilty. |

Buyamerican, methinks you've missed the point of the thread. |

Really Jonesy? 18-35 yr old black women can over-look all of his lies and stealing but if they find out he boinked a white woman, then all bets are off? |

The OJ jury didn't think so. Where is Johnny Chocran and Robert Kardashian and Robert Shapiro and F. Lee Bailey and Alan Dershowitz. Where is the Mayors Dream Team? How can this outrage go on any longer? No Justice No Peace. OMG a white woman, what did she look like? |

Thames, most of the young black women I have talked with, or have seen interviewed, believe his indiscretions are between him and his wife and none of our business. They also conveniently overlook his lying on the stand. So they don't care whether he committed a crime or not. |

Jonesy, that is a damn shame too because I have a friend who has a cluster of girlfriends who feel the same way too. It bothered me to even begin to talk about it with them because of the ignorance they spoke of. All educated women who should know better but obviously didn't. These are the ppl who will continue to vote for him and that is the sad part. |

Jonesy and Mrsjdaniels, that is a damn shame. KK ruined the good names and the stellar careers of at least two (black) men and his antics went well beyond the scope of just him and his wife. I do not understand how other people do not understand that. Doesn't it make you crazy? |

On Monday, July 21, approximately 50 women in New York, who called themselves "Women of Independent Means" mostly from Abysinnian Baptist Church, marched in their high heel shoes, church lady hats and purses in front of The New Yorker Magazine to demonstrate their dissatisfaction with the cover depicting Michelle and Barack Obama as militant, flag-burning, rifle toting, anti-Americans. What better way to say..."YOU MISSED IT NEW YORKER"... Now's our chance to do the same here in Detroit. We need to organize ourselves to march around the Coleman A. Young Municipal Building in the same manner. If you will join us, please state so by email, phone, carrier pigeon...we'd love to have your support...There will be no speeches, no identifications, nothing but a sign that will read..."JUST RESIGN" If you are a man who has received this, please pass it on to your wife. |
