Perhaps he'll be back as mayor in a couple of years and then serve on the city council just as our fine former mayor here in DC has done.

dude, barry got reelected to his mayor position after that video. sharon pratt kelly was mayor for a couple of years, but then barry took over again.

...and he's currently on the city council.

We can also add the incompetant Ray Nagin to the list of worthless mayors that got re-elected.

Arey you insinuating that only black Democratic Mayors have been corrupt? I see where this thread is heading.

jmarquise · 08-07-2008, 10:26 AM

no, all corrupt democrat mayors are welcome. I am just thinking of the ones that come to mind. kilpatrick is in the headlines today, and I grew up in DC, so I remember barry well. if you have a democrat mayor you would like to nominate, by all means, bring it. I dislike all democrats.

Can we please place the blame where it is deserved the most? The good citizens of Detroit and Washington DC who continue to re-elect these liars even after they show their true colors. When you don't vote or don't place any thought to your vote, this is what you get.
