Patterson started out as a conservative 35 years ago fighting busing in Pontiac, MI. Over the years he has morphed into the ultimate party hack. His primary interests now are golf and living the good life. The last time I heard about Patterson was when he damaged a county-issued Cadillac on his way beck from the “19th hole.”

Oakland County Executive L. Brooks Patterson on Tuesday joined a heated -- but seemingly settled -- debate over whether holstered firearms should be allowed at the Arts, Beats and Eats festival scheduled for Labor Day weekend in Royal Oak.
