Elect a crazy council, get crazy results (Detroit/New Zimbabwe council meeting: "Whites Go Home")

The Detroit News | 3/1/2009 | Nolan Finley

Nowhere is Michigan's brain drain on greater display than in the Detroit City Council chambers.

My hopes for Detroit's future faded as I watched the tape of last Tuesday's council meeting, the one that considered the Cobo Center expansion deal.

It was a tragic circus, a festival of ignorance that confirmed the No. 1 obstacle to Detroit's progress is the bargain basement leaders that city voters elect. The black nationalism that is now the dominant ideology of the council was on proud display, both at the table and in the audience.

Speakers advocating for the deal were taunted by the crowd and cut short by Council President Monica Conyers, who presided over the hearing like an angry bulldog; whites were advised by the citizens to, "Go home."

...When he dared suggest that an improved Cobo Center would create more good-paying jobs for union workers, Conyers reminded him, "Those workers look like you; they don't look like me."

Desperate, he invoked President Barack Obama's message of unity and was angrily warned, "Don't you say his name here."

There apparently is a video of this meeting but it is being kept hush-hush.

Holy crap.

It is going to get worse.

[chuck_the_tv_out]

what can you say.

all the old stuff like “imagine if a white person said that” seems pathetic. we’re well past those mindless comparisons.

There apparently is a video of this meeting but it is being kept hush-hush.

Here's hoping someone gets a copy to Sean Hannity, one of the few media people with the stones to air it.

[Future Snake Eater]

Yep, it’s already started.

“We’re important now. We gonna get even witch you.”

It’s never, ever been about equality, but dominance. How sad to live your whole life like that.

Good, let these ignorant fools wallow in the cesspool they created for themselves. They seem to love it anyway.

I keep checking YouTube for this video but it hasn't yet appeared. I'd love to see it.

Michigan needs to be renamed ‘Toast’.

It doesn't matter who the mayor is there. As long as the same people get elected to council there, this will continue to happen in the city of Detroit.

Michigan needs to be renamed ‘Toast’.

Do we call Detroit "West Zimbabwe" or "North Zimbabwe?"

[King Moonracer]

Isn’t Michigan Hymie-Town? Oh wait, that’s African American Civil Rights HERO Jesse Jackson’s name for New York City....

[pnh102]

As long as the same people get elected to council there, this will continue to happen in the city of Detroit.

And the people deserve everything they get.

[Drew68]

Nobody can help Detroit if voters again elect a City Council composed of separatists, clueless dowagers and the apparently insane.

I don't think Detroit is going to suddenly elect the competent (and sane) to City Council. Detroit is a lost cause. I couldn't imagine living there as a white person. The comparisons to Zimbabwe couldn't be more apt.

I read this earlier this week.

This is all about who gets to control the HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS to Rebuild and expand COBO CENTER in Detroit, and the PATRONAGE that goes with it.

Granholm has proposed a regional authority since it is state and regional tax dollars being spent, and Conyers wants it under HER control. SHE wants to be able to decide who gets the contracts. And these RACISTS aren’t afraid to scream “RACISTS!!!” to get it.

Welcome to OBAMUNISM....
