DETROIT -- Former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick went on a shopping spree during his first full day in jail, spending $40 on food, toiletries and XXXL long johns.
Records released Friday to the Detroit Free Press and The Detroit News show Kilpatrick's purchases included granola bars, barbecue potato chips, shampoo and $2 worth of Vaseline.
In late October, Kilpatrick began serving a 120-day sentence for obstruction of justice and assault. With good behavior, he could be out of jail after 100 days.
Kilpatrick was in a scandal that involved courtroom lies, sex with a top aide and incriminating text messages.
The Wayne County jail did not release the names of Kilpatrick's visitors. He reported to jail in a business suit and had 18 pairs of socks and $67.

The jokes just write themselvesDon't they though! I expect he's going to use the vaseline like lotion for ashy skin, which is how many blacks use it. Still, you have to wonder. : )

I was told that jail inmates use Vaseline in preparing salad dressing. Apparently tossed salads are popular. I’m glad to see the prison encourages healthy diet with lots of fiber. Salads are great for keeping your colon running freely.

Black guys use Vaseline on their hair while in jail to keep it from drying out.

I can’t believe that’s all he got...120 days in jail. I’m in Mi too and in our little town they give you 90 days for just about anything...And he gets such a light sentence.

DETROIT! We are not as good as Chicago. We only have our mayors making license plates not our Governor. But I wish we did.
Kilpatrick never offered any vaseline to the residents of Detroit when he was nailing them. I bet Christine Beaty is jealous.

Meet the next governor of Michigan. The idiot white liberals in this pathetic welfare state are so guilt-ridden they’d vote for Idi Amin and volunteer themselves as the first course at the cannibal celebration.
And the drooling, room-temperature IQ unionists would deliver the firewood, pots and grills.
