Anyway I don't see how DA Worthy can get a conviction in Wayne County, it will be OJ part deux.
Easy....motion for change of venue.
We’re looking at the next governor of he socialist/welfare state of Michigan or the next senator if Lenin or The Cow retires.
Why won't this guy just GO AWAY. Oh wait - In his value system he's done nothing wrong and is entitled to cars, women, five star spas, junkets, etc. while his City crumbles. After all, he's a Dem.
P.S. So is Elliot Spritzer !!!
Dane: “Notice how the AP leaves out that Kilpatrick is a superdelegate, and also the underlying theme that Kilpatrick is still married and that Worthy is not.”
Thanks!

Watching DA Worthy this morning, I couldn’t help but thinking she is “the real deal”. A clear, concise statement of facts, how they found those facts and what they were going to do with them. Even her illustration of all the aspects of Lady Justice was genuine - a statement of what she values and why she’s a lawyer - and not at all some kind of “political theatre”. She played each note and sang each word like a well-crafted straight-forward song as opposed to some orchestrated, over-produced show business act. I liked what I saw and hope she succeeds in locking this slug away.
They won't let Whitey stick to their Homey. /sarc

MUG SHOTS, POST #7!!!
Thanks, Civ. Now we just need freeper Registered to do some photoshopping magic!
No, a Wayne County Jury is far different than a Detroit Jury. I’ll bet that there will be few Detroit residents on the actual jury. BTW, his hatred level by Detroit residents seems to be quite high...right now.
She looks like she’s sorry and sad. He looks like he’s going to kill someone.
Kwane's parents are politicians, while Ms. Worthy's parents are career military and a librarian.
Well, y’know, everyone already knows they’re Democrats, and black, so why remind ‘em? I wonder how the drive-by media referred to Clarence Thomas during those hearings? I’m sure he got exactly the same treatment, eh?
Whoops. Thanks TheRake, sorry rake.
