POLITICAL ROUND UP: KILPATRICK PLEADS NOT GUILTY / OBAMA RELEASES TAX RETURNS
Wednesday, March 26, 2008

On Wednesday, Detroit mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, and his former chief of staff, Christine Beatty, pleaded not guilty to perjury charges regarding an affair and using taxpayer money in an attempt to cover it.
They were released on $75,000 bail each, and preliminary examination has been set for June 9. If convicted of all charges, Kilpatrick could face up to 90 years in jail.
OBAMA RELEASES TAX RETURNS

Sen. Barack Obama released seven years of tax returns on Tuesday and his campaign criticized Sen. Hillary Clinton for not releasing her 2006 returns.
In a statement, Robert Gibbs, Obama’s communications director said:
“Senator Clinton recently claimed that she’s ‘the most transparent figure in public life,’ yet she’s dragging her feet in releasing something as basic as her annual tax returns. Senator Clinton can’t claim to be vetted until she allows the public the opportunity to see her finances — particularly with respect to any investment in tax shelters.”
At a press conference Tuesday afternoon, Clinton announced she would be moving the release date of her tax returns. The documents could possibly be made public within the week.
Obama’s tax returns are available online.
Obama’s campaign is billing a “major” speech about the economy which the senator will deliver Thursday morning in New York City, following remarks by Republican candidate John McCain on the housing market on Tuesday and Sen. Clinton on Monday.

I remember when Kilpatrick was first elected he was a rising star in the political relm I saw straight through his image then, please the HIP HOP MAYOR. Excuse my french but he joining the ever growing line of politicians who have lost their livelihood and reputation to a piece of pussy. Detroit looks like someone dropped a bomb on it and is losing jobs at a rapid pace and all he is concerned about is strippers and loose women. Shame on him.

I’m impressed. The more I hear about Barak the more I like him. I wasn’t just going to vote for him b/c he’s black (like my daddy LOL) but he really seems like an all around classy guy. That’s what we need someone who is honest about the good and the bad in this country. I really hope he wins . . .Hillary lost major points w/me hollerin about she was in hostile fire. That was just lying for no reason. Nobody even asked her that! Oh and Please get the margins fixed. Thought it was just my computer

Kilpatrick is an embarrassment to his race! U DUMMY!
I just dont’ get it, I’m not saying temptations aren’t around you, but I feel that if you are a black politician then you should be EXTRA careful in all tyou do because you are BEING WATCHED!
Please, those that didn’t want him there in that position didn’t even have to do anything. He just did himself in for them. And I’ve heard that he has somehting to do with that stripper “Strawberry” being murdered too. He might as well step dpwn because there is an avalanche of shit coming his way.

The tax returns matter because Obama is saying that the Clintons took money from certain people to help build Bill’s presidential library & that in return, they promised those certain people cabinet positions & kickbacks if she became president.

About Hillary not releasing her tax returns for 2006 smells scandal…she has said that she would release her tax returns once she get the nomination. That right there turned me off! She is a public official…if she has nothing to hide why not give the people what they want? I think she’s been “loaning” her own campaign a lot more money than she claims. I don’t trust Hillary per-i-od! This election is exposing the Clintons for who they really are…and it’s straight up disgusting.
*Side Note: I was listening to the Tom Joiner Morning Show today and a lady called in and pointed out how during the time of the Monica Lewinsky drama while Bill and Hillary were in the White House, it was a black pastor/minister (Rev. Jesse Jackson) who was their spiritual advisor and playing a major part in getting the nation to forgive and unite and move on.
So for her to make the statement that she would have denounced Rev. Wright and would have gone to another church is very ungrateful of her and exposes her for what she is…”a user.” I knew she was just playing up to the black community because of her husband’s relationship with the black community. I am losing the little bit of respect that I have for Hillary Clinton by the minute. Do what you want with that little piece of information….

Thank you Hummingbirdee…a lot of people still don’t get it. Particularly the ones who are still willing to vote for her in PA. The vote is split there, and we still have a lot of older Black folk who are still riding the Clinton 90 years and are not internet savvy, or savvy enough to know the truth about the crooked azz Clinton’s. This is sad but true. They have an upcoming law suit that is the news are not telling the public about. This law suit is from the old guy Stan Lee (Spiderman/Marvel Comics) and Peter Paul, two investors who wanted to solicit President Clinton on his way out from the White House, to PR for their firm, in turn of them giving the Clinton’s help with her run for NY Senate.
Stan Lee and Mr. Paul threw them one of the hugest Hollywood political fund raisers, spent over 2 million dollars hosting this event to raise funds for Hillary’s run for NY Senate, and HRC did not omit this on the FEC (Federal Election Campaign), reports. She duped these two gentlemen, and on top of all things, Bill Clinton and his business associates took Stan Lee and Paul’s business idea and sold it to an Asian businessman for his own personal profit. This case is due to come up in court in April. They have suppressed this case for years, because of Clinton Judiciaries who he appointed back while he was in office, kept throwing the case out of court. => They are sick and secretive, this is why they won’t release tax returns either!!
This woman has not only lied about her time in the White House, while “Slick Willy was getting his Willy wet”, but she has repeatedly lied about her experience as a Junior Senator:
Since HRC has served 6 years this is what she has authored/passed into law 20 pieces of legislation:
1. Establish Kate Mullany National Historic Site.
2. Support goals and ideals of Better Hearing and Speech
Month.
3. Recognize Ellis Island Medal of Honor.
4. Name courthouse Thurgood Marshall.
5. Name courthouse James L. Watson.
6. Name post office Jonn A. O’Shea.
7. Designate Aug. 7, 2003, National Purple Heart
Recognition Day.
8. Support goals and ideals of National Purple Heart
Recognition Day.
9. Honor life and legacy of Alexander Hamilton on
bicentennial of his death.
10. Congratulate Syracuse Univ. Lacrosse Team on winning
championship. (are you kidding me??)
11. Congratulate Le Moyne College Dolphins Men’s Lacrosse
Team winning championship. (wtf??!)
12. Establish 225th Anniversary of American Revolution
Commemorative Program.
13. Name post office after Sergeant Riayan A. Tejeda.
14. Honor Shirley Chisholm for her service to nation and
express condolences on her death.
15. Honor John J. Downing, Brian Fahey, and Harry Ford,
firefighters who lost lives on duty.
16. Extend period of unemployment assistance to victims
9/11.
17. Pay for city projects in response 9/11.
18. Assist landmine victims (yet she is against banning
landmines).
19. Assist family caregivers accessing affordable respite
care.
20. Designate part of National Forest System in Puerto
Rico as protected in wilderness preservation system.
Obama
And for the record, here are some of his achievements:
During the first (8) eight years of his elected service he sponsored over 820 bills. He introduced:
* 233 regarding healthcare reform,
* 125 on poverty and public assistance,
* 112 crime fighting bills,
* 97 economic bills,
* 60 human rights and anti-discrimination bills,
* 21 ethics reform bills,
* 15 gun control,
* 6 veterans affairs and many others.
His first year in the U.S. Senate, he authored 152 bills and co-sponsored another 427. These included:
* the Coburn-Obama Government Transparency Act of 2006
(became law),
* The Lugar-Obama Nuclear Non-proliferation and
Conventional Weapons Threat Reduction Act, (became
law),
* The Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act, passed the
Senate,
* The 2007 Government Ethics Bill, (became law),
* The Protection Against Excessive Executive
Compensation Bill, (In committee), and many more.
In all since enter the U.S. Senate, Senator Obama has written 890 bills and co-sponsored another 1096.

………and Bill Clinton is walking around here free? He “ran” the country while Kwame is merely over a city! 90 years? The president was getting his freak on while getting paid TO BE the president with his wife under the same roof (The White House) while Kwame got caught with the text messages. Where is Kwame’s sperm on a dress? Can’t find none…….but Clinton is free!
When you are a man of power, there are those woman who will be in awe of it. Does it make Ms. Beatty a bad woman? NO! It’s not about that, these things do happen….. but damn! 90 years? So I guess former New York Governor Eliot Spitzer will get 900 years for buying booty! At least Kwame’s fling had an emotional element to it and AT LEAST has wasn’t buyin’ none!
They will always hate a brother with a little game.
But seriously folks, this goes to show you how race does play a big part in how these high level mistakes are judged.
Let’s watch, wait and see……..
The best advice I can give now is for Kwame to say: “I DID NOT HAVE SEX WITH THAT WOMAN!”
It worked for Bill didn’t it?

Wow this guy (Kilpatrick) deserves whatever he gets. I don’t understand how people do stupid stuff and when it gets put out for all to see they deny it and act as if they are a victim or something. Kilpatrick set his self up and took Beatty along for the ride. It saddens me to see black women allow men to use them, then throw them away. Beatty, who was in law school at some point, has possibly ruined her chances at ever getting a job in jurisprudence. Kilpatrick’s wife has to be embarrassed by her husbands actions but she continues to “stand by her man”, like so many women, while her husband clearly could care less about her. Maybe she is staying for financial security, but in my opinion, peace of mind is much more important than any money. Bottom line is Kilpatrick got caught cheating and in the process brought Detroit down with him. He should resign and allow someone who can focus on the welfare of the citizens to take over. His refusal to do so shows that he doesn’t care about Detroit, his family or Beatty (who has resigned). All he cares about is himself…Kwame Kilpatrick, arrogant politician! -LR

I had so much hope for Kwame because you have to admit, the city was starting to come up. I remember during the superbowl that one year, I went downtown and went, ‘This is Detroit? I’ve never even seen it like this before’ and I’ve lived in the city my entire life! He’s continuously messing up and bringing negative attention to a city that I don’t think deserves it. Detroit has it flaws but it also has many great things about it that isn’t shown to anyone outside of the city or the state for that matter. But how can it be when your Mayor is sleeping around on tax dollars? To answer tenderoni’s question, sure he can have an affair, that’s on him. What made it a crime was that money of the tax payers were spent trying to cover it up.
Kwame’s not going to step down unless they make him step down and in a way I don’t blame him. Spending tax payers money on SUV’s for his wife, this mess and the dead stripper…what’s the point of stepping down when he’s messed up royally before? I knew something like this would happen down the road when he made a big deal about losing his diamond stud at Campus Martius or when I saw him at that Kanye concert the same night 9 people got shot. Oh Kwame.

See, this is why people hate his fat ass; he is forever putting people through mess they don’t have to go through cause of his own pride. He is the worst type of liar there is…..he is a liar who will lie til the end, no matter if you catch him in the act, get his fingerprints or dna.

This just in from CNN Hillary says she willnot quit at the risk of destroying the
democratic party.She is hoping people vote republican in general election if she
stays in she will further devide the party.What have them men in this country that
they would let a woman destroy out democracy in this country.What she has
what I have always known to be true,she and Bill have no regards for African
Americans and they do not want a black man to be president.This is so sad but,
she does not care what the democartic party wants she will not bow out.What are
we going to do, she knows this willhurt black people if everyone goes republican
because of her bullshit.
She ranting and raving today about Rev.Wright saying Obama should have left that
church and Rev Wright could never be her Pastor…..why did they invite him to the
white house…I guess he was needed then with all the other black clergy.
Did she leave Bill when he humiliated her and this country and dishonored his
position…… and Chelsea told someone the M L incident was nobodys business,
go figure, I know they have entitilement issues when it comes to the white house
that was not their private residence it was everyone business Bill saw to that in
doing in the white house.

PRAY FOR OBAMA AND THIS COUNTRY
Wednesday, March 26, 2008 /
Look I am serious about this. If anyone here that comes to this site goes to a church and knows about prayer and intercession…NOW is the time tto seriously
pray for President Elect Obama. What he is going through is spiritual warfare, there are many of us who KNOW he is in the will of the Lord, t he devil would not give any man this courage to run for this office and office that white and many black americans say that willnever happen or could never be.
Anyone who is reading this that knows about spirits then we need to agree and take authority over the spirit of Jezebel….read about this woman in the scriptures she hated Elijah and single handed wanted to destroy him…..she was a wicked woman it was her way or no way.
This spirit is very manipulative deceptive and utterly evil, it is of the devil to steal kill and destroy.
Again I am only addressing those who are spiritually minded and those who attend churches who have intercessory prayer warriors.
If anyone from Trinity reads then I let the prayer warriors there know we are agreeing with you on behalf of Mr.Obama and his family standing on the word of God that says the prayers of the righteous availeth much.
God bless all Gods people and CL thank you for this post!!!! PRAY EVERYONE PRAY!!!!!

If you’re refering to what I said. No I’m not from Detroit but I make it there a few times a year because I have a close friend that stays there. And parts of Detroit looks like someone just said fuck it and let it fall to pieces. I didn’t say the whole city looks like that. And trust me, I stay no where near those areas. Another thing don’t be calling nobody a hoe.

From what I’ve read, this is tacky. I’m becoming fed up with black americans and their morals. I thought we were raised to have morals and ethics. But I see once a little money and power comes about, all that goes out the door. And I put it that way since we as a people spend so much time in chruch or talking about it. What were they thinking about?? They sound like two 13 year olds. He is lacking something for him to go out like this. And it’s not the wife’s fault. And this skank on the right… ILL! Females, need to stop it. It seems like any dick make chicks loss their minds too. Over the past few days, I have lost so much respect for black men. God has to show me the way. Because the way I feel, you would think I wear sheets…

KK and CB are dumb MoFo’s. They bring new faces to the dumb political bodies that continue to embarass the hard working people who put them on top. Kwame needs to humble himself and bless his wife if he survives this. CB is a beautiful woman, with obvious charm, grace and brains. She could have help this man make a run for Presidency, instead of agreeing to destroy both their careers, cost taxpayers millions and destroy another woman’s life, her husband’s, not to mention all their kids.
Men almost always get the heat for affairs and cheating, but this woman knew his status. Not saying he couldn’t, but a woman with all that going for her is hard to resist, all day everyday and everynight, if she set her eyes on you. He should have distant himself once he knew “would” cheat with her. I bet that as soon as he felt the attraction, if he would have told his wife (I know sounds crazy, but better to be up front saying “I think she’s hot!”, then explaining afterwards that you cheated with her), she would have put some road blocks up. He and his wife are partners. She is there to help avoid these type of situations if used correctly. But when you make your significant other the person who you keep your secrets from, you’re setting her up to fail as well. Never know, he could have said “Babe I think CB is hot.” and her response might have been “Me too!, get her over here….for us.” But he’ll never know because he tried to be sneaky and cheat, on his wife. At least it wouldn’t have been an affair if he and his wife did the deed. Don’t know if she’s into that, but he would know.
I guess what I’m saying is regardless to the charges, the biggest victim in this is not the taxpayer, the city, black America or KK, it’s his wife. She has to look at all day coverage of a strong black woman standing up for and by her man as he’s running for the top office in the land, while she herself is left defending a man who has given her the exact opposite platform and has humiliated her and their family for America to see. Taking her on tv to apologize was cowardly.
Let us move on………….
Hillary simply cannot tell the truth. Here’s her scorecard:
Admitted Lies
• Chelsea was jogging around the Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001. (She was in bed watching it on TV.)
• Hillary was named after Sir Edmund Hillary. (She admitted she was wrong. He climbed Mt. Everest five years after her birth.)
• She was under sniper fire in Bosnia. (A girl presented her with flowers at the foot of the ramp.)
• She learned in The Wall Street Journal how to make a killing in the futures market. (It didn’t cover the market back then.)
Whoppers She Won’t Confess To
• She didn’t know about the FALN pardons.
• She didn’t know that her brothers were being paid to get pardons that Clinton granted.
• Taking the White House gifts was a clerical error.
• She didn’t know that her staff would fire the travel office staff after she told them to do so.
• She didn’t know that the Peter Paul fundraiser in Hollywood in 2000 cost $700,000 more than she reported it had.
• She opposed NAFTA at the time. (held several meeting to beat the opposition to get it done.
• She was instrumental in the Irish peace process.
• She urged Bill to intervene in Rwanda.
• She played a role in the ’90s economic recovery.
• The billing records showed up on their own.
• She thought Bill was innocent when the Monica scandal broke. (worked to fiscredit Paula Jones and Jennifer Flowers)
• She was always a Yankees fan.
• She had nothing to do with the New Square Hasidic pardons (after they voted for her 1,400-12 and she attended a meeting at the White House about the pardons).
• She negotiated for the release of refugees in Macedonia (who were released the day before she got there).

Kwame and his tramp skank should be kicked to the curb, run out of town on a rail and never allowed to hold public office again. He’s a liar and a cheat, she’s a hoe!

I think the whole story dealing with Kilpatrick is getting controversy because it deals with the fact that he spent an extra 2 million dollars (of taxpayers money!) to pay off the police officers who knew about his relationship with Beatty. He needs to be thrown under the jailhouse!!

Doubt he’ll get 90 years but the brotha will be made an example of … and for good reason. Blacks need to realize that the bar is much, much higher for US than it is for THEM. I think Kwame failed to recognize the limits to his power and the limits to redemption for a Black man in America. Just cause you made it inside the big house don’t mean you get to eat at the big table. Negro shouldda realized that first and foremost.
As for CB, she’s just as dumb. Don’t these people know that you never leave a paper trail? That shows how caught up they were. Poor fool. I don’t feel a lick of sympathy for her either. Women get too caught up and then want to run for cover when the shit starts to hit the fan. There has to be a certain level of responsibility taken. She wasn’t coerced, threatened or intimidated. She was just CAUGHT UP.
I feel sorry for the wife but even sorrier for her if she’s staying for “love” or the “kids”. Kwame didn’t become this way overnight. There had to be some clue of his ways before this and she just chose to ignore the signs (as most women do). But at this point, how much more humiliation can one person face? I suppose for her there may be a good reason to. Personally, I think women like her (and Hillary), who stay after being scandalized, only do so because they have ulterior motives. t’s not always for “the kids” because I’m sure the kids have gotten their fair share on the playground already. So I’m sure she has something up her sleeve. Hell, Hillary parlayed her betrayal into a run for the Presidency and the opportunity to make history. I’m sure Mrs. Kilpatrick could do the same. A tell-all book or two perhaps? Time will tell.

You guys are funny. Where do you go? WHats the web address? HIllary-hating facts.com. To hear her talk about dodging bullets in Bosnia was quite hilarious. She did not misspeak. Ridiculous lie, pathetic lie. How could any civilian forget dodging sniper bullets. Thats funny. SHe will never live that down. Obama life threats are numerous and yes we should pray for him, because this is a great man. We all feel it in our souls.
Detroit mayor mr. hip hop is a true embarrassment to our race. Admit your sins. We all fall short. However, when we have been blessed with such a position of power, we have a duty to elevate ourselves to a much higher standard. People, dont piss on the Lord’s blessings. We never have to stop answering to him. Instead of humbling himself, he chooses to continue his shameless, stubborn charade. BE A MAN, STEP DOWN!!!!!!! Marion Jones admitted the use of steroids. She opened herself up for the shame to follow. But, we have much respect for her honesty. , she has found her inner peace. Because she has stopped another young black teen from making her mistake.

OK, THIS IS WHAT I DONT UNDERSTAND IN POLITICS?
WHY IS IT A CRIME TO HAVE AN AFFAIR? IS IT AN OATH THAT THEY PLEDGE?
_____________________
They are not being charged because they had an affair, they lied under oath - that’s perjury…. Basically the same thing that hemmed up Lil’ Kim and Martha Stewart. Lying under oath is a crime.

Kwame is a traitor. One of the offiicers he fired for investigating his misuse of city money for his affiars was a brother. Talk about an Uncle Tom, I hope he NEVER has another day in office EVER!!! Place his dumb, lying ass UNDER the jailhouse!

@66, I think you may be living in a dream world, one that may one day come crashing down on you. Stats say that 60% of men cheat/have cheated on their wives and personally I think the number is higher for Black men. But that’s another story, I can assure you that if you’re fortunate enough to have a fine, educated, and paid Black husband, he’s getting hit on my women ALL THE TIME.
But I digress, my point is that you don’t throw away a marriage because man has been an idiot because ALL men have their issues. So maybe these women stay with their husbands because the thing they have up their sleeves is to honor the they made a commitment to be there through it all, not just the good stuff.

Just like to say its a joint return. His wife is a hospital administrator (a very lucrative career) and she was once her husbands boss. So half that money was earned by her!!!!!! Half the investments,HER. He and his wife are a professional team. REAL BLACK LOVE, TRULY AN EXAMPLE. THANK YOU BOTH.

You are so misinformed it’s ridiculous. You can always tell the people who don’t know the whole story, coming on here commenting on the story at face value. One huge difference between Kilpatrick and Bill Clinton is the fuckin following:
KILPATRICK LIED ON THE DAMN STAND IN A FUCKIN FEDERAL TRIAL, RIGHT BEFORE PLACING HIS CROOKED HAND ON THE BIBLE AND SWEARING NOT TO; FOR SLOW FOLK, THIS IS A CRIME, IT’S CALLED P-E-R-J-U-R-Y, AND IT’S PUNISHABLE BY UP TO 15 YEARS IN PRISON. SO WHY 90 YEARS? CAUSE THIS SHOW MONKEY WAS CHARGED WITH MULTIPLE COUNTS OF PERJURY, WITH EACH COUNT HOLDING A 15 YEAR MAX…..I THINK IN ALL HE HAS 7 COUNTS.
ON THE OTHER HAND….
BILL CLINTON WAS NOT ON TRIAL, AND HE SIMPLY LIED (AS BAD AS THAT WAS) IN HIS SPEECHES, AND WHILE BEING QUESTIONED ABOUT THE AFFAIR TO THE MEDIA. HOWEVER, HE DID NOT DO SO WHILE UNDER OATH AND WHILE BEING A WITNESS OR DEFENDANT IN A FUCKIN TRIAL…..HE DID NOT SWEAR TO TELL THE TRUTH AND THEN TELL BLATANT LIE AFTER LIE, AFTER LIE, AS KILPATRICK R-E-P-E-A-T-E-D-L-Y DONE THROUGH HIS ENTIRE TWO TERMS IN OFFICE.
NOT TO MENTION HE’S A CHRONIC LIAR, STAY CHASING ASS, AND IS A BIG FAT BRAZEN BULLY.
