It's like I came back from paradise and the whole world is on fire. And I am not just talking about those Chinese drummers. First Kwame Kilpatrick's ass went to jail and then John Edwards came out and finally admitted that he had an extra marital affair. Talk about must see TV. I haven't turned Fox on for a week, but I bet Bill O'reilly was having a field day with all these sexual shananagens.

Of course, the writing has been on the wall with Kilpatrick for a minute now. I know that a lot people still have love for him, even me. But word to Elliot Spitzer, at some point you gotta do what's best for your city and get the hell out of dodge. And I know that he comes from a long lineage of strong leaders, but his refusal to come clean about his mistress is costing his city millions of dollars in legal fees. Not to mention the fact that it's probably hard to sell Detroit to potential new businesses when the city's most powerful figure is entangled in a sex scandal.
Speaking of sex scandal, what's up with John Edwards? I mean, come on dawg! When are these politicians going to learn from Bill Clinton's mistakes? Just admit that you had the affair in the first place and stop trying to cover the mess up, especially when there is a potential "love child" crying in the shadows. After all a "love child" is way worse that a seamen soaked dress.
And I know that it's prolly hard to admit that you are getting you freak on with a random chick when you are running for president. But why wait until two weeks before the DNC convention to admit that you've been cheating on you cancer stricken wife? (He prolly got strong armed huh? I am betting that the some goons from the GOP have been hammering him over the last several months. They prolly have pictures.) I bet the Edwards' team prolly figured that it was better to get the drama out of the way before he got nominated for something important like VP or Attorney General. After all, this sex scandal could have been way more harmful to the Dems in October. I just hope his over active penis won't prevent him from having a future in politics. I sort of like him.
I guess there is a lesson to be learned from all these penis problems. Pay attention brothas...it's a whole lot cheaper to keep it in your pants.

Damn shame. John Edwards is a good man. Just a good man who made a mistake.
Hold up. Love for Kwame? Are you shitting me? Let's do a quick rewind on the worst mayor in the history of the United States of America.
1.) settles a 9 million dollar lawsuit against the city without disclosing to the city council that it was all because he had an affair with his chief of staff that he didn't want getting leaked to the media.
2.) lied in a court of law committing perjury.
3.) went on local television and tried to turn this entire ordeal into a white/black thing when we ALL knew this was a Kwame is a moron thing.
4.) beat up a fuckin sheriff while being presented with a subpoena.
5.) blatantly disobeyed the rules of his bond and left the country.
and let's not forget...
6.) allegedly KILLED A STRIPPER named Strawberry (couldn't make this shit up)
7.) leased a Lincoln Navigator for his wife on Detroit's dime and tried to hide that shit from the media.
8.) banked about $250,000 on city credit cards for personal use. His salary is roughly the same amount. Do the math people.
Kwame Kilpatrick has set Detroit back to 68 riot days. He's done nothing but posture and steal from the city. Dump his tether wearing wayne county jail convict ass Detroit and let's vote in Dave Bing or Freeman Hendrix NOW!!!
I agree with the both of you. There are a lot of good men that make serious bad decisions and mistakes like John Edwards and as long as his wife knew before all of those other folks, then that's what matters. Now, Kwame is another story. In the words of Bernie Mac (RIP)'He's a nigga' And one of the worst kinds. Doesn't he know that just because the white politicians do things don't mean that we are allowed. I mean, let's face it, like on Russ Parr this morning, Armstrong Lewis was trying to say that Barak is a wimp because he does what everyone wants him to do. Russ had to correct him and state that just because Barak is not showing his ruthlessness outwardly, don't think it's not there. He has to be careful in the way he presents himself so that he is not deemed the 'angry black man'. Yes, it's wrong that we can't reap the same benefits as some of our lighter more whiter counterparts when it comes to certain situations, but do we always want the same benefits as them? Think about it. If they will call a white man on his wrong doings, what you think they will do to a black or brown? And it seems like no matter if our situation is not even as severe as theirs, our will become more severe in the eyes of the public. Everyone is drilling this John Edwards thing in the ground and Kwame's stuff needs to be drilled there. They don't mention too much about John & Cindy McCain's love story. She was his first wife's best friend and she cheated with him. That's how they got together. Bill Clinton was outed with a 12 year love affair with Jen Flowers and Paula Jones. His weird ass still got to be president. Newt Gingrich, Ron Reagan and so many others has been 'caught' cheating and the story some how just dissipates. I am just tired of cheating on your spouse being so damn public because it NEVER makes the politician look bad, it makes their spouses look bad. And I am sorry to say, if the woman was giving it up (only in some instances) then maybe the man wouldn't have to go some where else. 12 years for me and my husband and I refuse to give him any reason to go out and get some from another woman.
Well said, MzVirgoLuv. It can't always be the dude's fault. If the woman was keepin her man satisfied then he wouldn't have to go somewhere else. John Edwards was still wrong tho since his wife is a cancer patient.
That's what happens when you let an ignorant hiphop idiot run things.
Detroit should've voted in someone who is smart like say a Corey Booker(current mayor of Newark,NJ).
Like Detroit,Newark has been bad for YEARS.Corey got rid of all of the corruption,and now your starting to see a little progress.
I started to side with Kwame when I heard about the bullshit charges they were bringing him up on but when i heard about him leaving the country i started to realize that he's just another hiphop moron.
Whatup Biko,and congrats on your new marriage,this is Atheist.
OBAMA\BAYH 08(ALTHOUGH I LIKE KAINE)

BE ON THE LOOK OUT FOR WAR WITH RUSSIA AND CHINA...WWIII

Please stop associating hip hop with everything black or ignorant. I am almost 33 years old and am so young to my heart I love hip hop and rap (the real stuff) and I am not ignorant. And don't think all ignorant dudes are into hip hop. Please just associate ignorant with such and leave hip hop out of it. Kwame is just an ignorant man that needs to get shut out!!!! And yes, it was wrong for Edwards to cheat while his wife was fighting for her life. I think that was some emotional shit, not sexual. He needed a woman's touch and some sensitivity to what he was going through with his wife and that's how that got started, (in my opinion).
It's true, for the most part, a woman is supposed to keep her man satisfied just like a man is supposed to keep his wife satisfied, how ever that may be. In all honesty though, I see why Bill cheated. Look at that bitter bitch.
Always remember 'THE LAST SHALL BE FIRST AND THE FIRST SHALL BE LAST'. So my black and browns, are day is coming.
