2008 – The Year of the Democrat Scandal

Gov. Jennifer Granholm responded quickly Wednesday to the Detroit City Council’s request that she remove Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick from office, by sending a letter to Kilpatrick and the council asking them to name their legal representatives.

    Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick should step down from his position. When people think of Michigan and the first think of when you say Michigan is Detroit. Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick is giving the entire state a bad reputation. How many funds do the people of Michigan have to let slid through the fingers of their mayor because of missing deadline? The Governor should remove him from office. He is hurting all the work she has done to go out of the country to get business interested in moving to help our workers get more jobs into Michigan. He alone is killing the states reputation. I know if I owned a business and heard all the bad stuff about Detroit that alone would turn me away from opening a business there.
