Kwame In a Teacup
Sunday, September 7th, 2008I’ve been subjected to the local news about Kwame and his self-induced problems for the past eight months. I caught a few minutes of the hearings just before he finally figured out that his epochal temper tantrum wasn’t going to keep him out of jail. The local news machines repeatedly claimed that Detroit was “paralyzed” with Kwame in legal limbo. On the contrary, everyone I know continued to work their regular jobs to make ends meet, despite the antics of Kwame.
Detroit folks will pay for his megalomania for years, if not decades. But are they paralyzed? Not even close. They don’t need him. Most of them just haven’t figured out yet that they don’t need him.
