Good riddance, fucktard. Detroit deserves better.
Not really. Detroit is a crap hole that has consistently voted for Liberals, and in doing so has received what they asked for.
And while Grand Prairie may not be a garden spot (and I will tell you, it isn't) We here in the DFW Metroplex can without this trash Detroit. We are all full up with enough trash as it is.

Texas...isn't that where those Republican people live? How odd the mayor of Detroit would choose to live among them. Or perhaps his wife insisted on moving somewhere sane...

Republicans, yes. But also numbers of non-Republican Blacks and Hispanics, the former rapidly being outnumbered by the latter and both lagging significantly behind Whites in income etc. Ripe for community organizing, perhaps.

He probably won't be out for long. Detroit Free Press...
Kilpatrick is out of prison now, but some legal experts say it's only a matter of time before he'll be behind bars again. They contend the former Detroit mayor will have a tough time beating his pending federal public corruption case, which goes to trial in September 2012.
Some say cutting a deal is his only option and could lead to a sentence of 10-12 years in prison. He faces 15-20 if he goes to trial and loses.
"I do expect that Kilpatrick will take a plea," said public corruption expert and San Francisco law professor Wes Porter. "The charges are so wide-ranging that they suggest to a jury truly pervasive conduct -- bribery, extortion, obstruction of justice. ..."Kilpatrick represents the type of defendant that has dug such a hole for himself and his credibility, that (it) is very difficult to imagine that he could ever take the stand in his own defense or garner sympathy as a victim of potential government overreaching."

Iff the SADDAM REGIME, + now possibly Uncle Muammar in Libyuh, etal. is any measure, the Egyptian Courts will find him de facto guilty of high crimes, give him the death penalty or LT imprisonment, but then later allow him to go into self-imposed exile in the US-West includ Russia.
NOT SURE ABOUT HIS KIDDIES = SONNY BOYZ, THOUGH, WHICH MAY INSPIRE HIM AS WID ANY CARING PARENT TO UNDERGO THE ABOVE PROCESS JUST TO SAVE THEIR ****.
