This video is hilarious! Today was Kwame Kilpatrick’s first day back before the same city council members who voted to oust him in March. Council President Ken Cockrel Jr. basically told the mayor he didn’t want to hear anything the mayor had to say. The look on Kwame’s face was PRICELESS!

At the end of the video, Kwame can be heard whimpering, “It seems as if that could have happened in my office. Grandstanding is not beneficial to our citizens.” Kwame later told reporters he felt totally blindsided. “It was childish,” said he. Whatever, Kwame!

Thanks to loyal reader Carla Perry for the link!

shhhh

I’m just wondering why that old a** woman is wearing that crown and prom dress to a city council meeting?

Oh the video is somethings. Wow!
MAJAHINEVERYWAY

I read about this briefly earlier today and was like DAMN!!!! They’re getting straight gangsta with LL Cool Kwame. While I don’t feel sorry for him one iota, city council is pulling LL Cool Kwame moves right now. Ken Cockrel wants his job and that makes their treatment of him look a little shady. That being said, GOOD FOR HIS CORRUPT ASS! LMAO!!!!!

Who is he to talk about Grandstanding? Hell, he blindsided the whole city. He reminds me of a itch.

From the Detroit Free Press:

Collins told reporters Cockrel had tried to contact her over the weekend, but she had been out celebrating her birthday. She wore a tiara at the meeting in honor of the day.

How is this chick going to be unavailable all weekend at a time like this? She should have at least checked her messages periodically. And what grown ass woman wears a tiara to work on her birthday? Detroit has some serious issue man.

He is such a disgrace and the reason why it is hard for white folks to vote for us, b/c of clowns like him. When is he going to jail or going to be put out of office?
Yeah I peeped the old lady with the tiara on, just adding on to the coonery going on in Detroit’s city politics.
Will my people ever do better.

That must be Janelle Monáe’s mom in that canary getup!
alana

I can’t see the video because I’m looking from my treo but I think the lady you are talking about being all dressed up is Joanne Watson. I’m not for what Kwame did but it is ver immature not to let him speak CITY BUSINESS. What is the city of Detroit paying these people for? They act like children
scorpio

Why does that lady have on a Tiara? LOL

trina@atl – You’re on point…

This is the quintessence of Coonery!
heart2heart

Um, okay.
shunda

LMAO at the lady in the tiara. Kwame had that deer in the headlights look.
shhhh

@8

What is your problem? What the hell does this post have to do with Janelle Monae? You are 30 years old and sitting her talking about someone’s mom that you don’t even know. You don’t see no one talking about your receeding hairline or your face. Why don’t you grow the hell up!
2dapoint

What does his personal problems have to do with his politics.. if he is doing his job, which i running he city of Detriot properly.. then let the man speak… what they did was personal…
NYC

I am very concerned about the old lady wearing a tiara and yellow ball gown to this meeting….what the hell is going on Detroit?!

The Hip Hop mayor deserves no respect. But more importantly: whats up with the tiara lady! LMAO.. I know Detroit can be some serious formal dressers but dang she has taken it to another level

ok, a quick reponse to: 2dapoint

It’s not personal when you are using the states equipment to send the text messages and when u r using the states money to pay for it.

GOODLAWD. we could not hardly breathe today when we finished watching it. LOL. folks was looking at us HARD at the workplace.

WTF??? this shyt is comical to even whitefolks. GTFOH!!

I live in Detroit, and this whole situation is pure entertainment…it just keeps getting funnier and funnier. The woman in the pic with the tiara is actually one of our councilwomen, Barbara Rose-Collins, and she was indeed wearing the tiara because her dumb a$$ says it was her birthday. This idiodicy could only happen in Detroit, unfortunately, a city ran entirely by Blacks.

BTW..did anyone see last week when the councilwoman called the President of City Council Shrek in a public, televised Council Meeting ???This took the cake…Sandra u gotta post this one…its even funnier than this!!! LMAO!!

WTF!?!?! Ok at this point I’m thinking the federal government needs to swoop down on Detroit and clean house. This is embarrassing. At least white politicians have the decency to mask their corruption behind smiles and pleasantries. These negroes are completely out of control. Kwame needs to go. This is all his fault.
extraordinary

What title did that old lady win?

I have never laughed this hard at THIS blog until today. I am over here with snot on the screen and my mircoscope from dying. LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO That old lady is killin it with the tiara.

#23 I think she won the title of Big Bird’s Queen for a day on Sesame Street. Or in Detroits case “Sex-a-me Skreet”.
Anna

Reading the comments not only killed 10 minutes but oh what fun to start the work day.
Krysi – yes the same one

I thought she was there to sprinkle fairy dust on Kwanme’s head, like the movie “Beetle Juice” and make it shrink into the size of a golf ball. She kinda looks like Mya Angelou from the side? Anyway, why would anyone with common sense want to hear this man’s plans for city budget…somebody should’ve jumped up and said, “B*tch YOU still owe us $9000.00 how the hell you gon propose a f*cking budget??!!” They don’t even have to mention the other stuff…that would have been enough to keep him quiet.
mimi08

BEAUTIFUL!!! WOW, I COULDN’T HAVE BEEN MORE SATISIFIED IF KEN COCKREL WOULD HAVE WENT TO THE OTHER END OF THE TABLE AND SLAPPED THE DOG S-H-I-T OUT OF KWAME. THAT LOOK WAS F’ING PRICELESS. THAT’S WHAT HE GETS. HE HAD THE AUDACITY TO SPEAK ABOUT BEING BLINDSIDED DAMN FAT NASTY GANGSTA ACTING B-I-T-C-H! I HOPE AND PRAY HE SITS IN PRISON FOR AT LEAST THREE LONG MISERABLE D-I-C-K SUCKIN YEARS. ARROGANT TRASH IS WHAT HE IS.
Coop

@City Council

This just ingnorant and as Kilpatrick stated it is nothing more then grandstanding whether you like him or not. Have they forgotten there still is a city to be ran? And all that is going to happen is a lot of going back and forth. Kwame go ahead and Clay Davis their a**es.

SH*TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Maxdan

I agree #29, they can’t just go around shytin’ on Kilpatrick b/c he messed up. Until both of his feet are out of the door they need to respect him and not act so ignorant in public. I think whites are laughing and moving out of Detroit as we speak….

Another thing, since the entire world wants to crucify Kwame…..have we forgot that politicians have done that for years. He just got caught up cause now we have text messsages and T-Mobile “My Fave 5”. So the brotha a freak and was smashin’ the chick he was working with…..that ain’t news to me….

I think Kwame forgot about the city, his wife and his children when he chose to cheat and lay down with that ol’ long horse faced donkey neck home wreckin’ trick.

That sounds like anger because he cheated that’s between him and his wife and not the council. and what man would not lie about cheating? the council president is just trying to get his name out so that he can run for Mayor you should see the interview he did after the show he put on.
Krysi – yes the same one

NOT ONLY DID HE CHEAT…..but he has cost the city millions of dollars already which also have to be put in the BUDGET. Those 2 cops have to be paid off for being fired without reason…cause Kwame wanna play HNIC…and he also leased a vehicle for his wife, and used charity funds for vactions, who could trust the budget in the hands of a corrupted idiot like that.

@blkdiamonn
HAAAA They really are gangsta up in Detroit! My goodness. Ok, What’s Next?
mimi08

IT’S OBVIOUS 29 AND 30 ARE MEN, AND CHEATING DIRTY SKELETON IN THE CLOSET MEN AT THAT TO HAVE ANY TYPE OF SYMPATHY FOR KWAME. YOU CLAIM THE CITY COUNCIL WAS GRAND STANDING, HOWEVER, BUT KWAME HAS THE AUDACITY TO BRING UP SOMETHING AS TRIVIAL AS GRAND STANDING. AND I GUESS HE WAS GRAND STANDING WHEN HE FIRED THOSE PEOPLE. I GUESS HE WAS GRAND STANDING WHEN HE SAT HIS FAT A-S-S- ON THE STAND AND FLAT OUT LIED, MULTIPLE TIMES. I GUESS HE WAS GRAND STANDING WHEN HE BOUGHT THAT EXPENSIVE TRUCK FOR HIM AND HIS FAMILY AND PAID FOR IT WITH CITY FUNDS. I GUESS HE WAS GRAND STANDING EVERY TIME HE STOOD HIS ENORMOUSLY FAT A-S-S IN FRONT OF A CROWD AND LIED WITH THAT TWISED MOUTH OF HIS. AND I GUESS HE WAS GRAND STANDING EVERY TIME HE SNUBBED THE MEDIA AND DARED THEM TO COME AFTER HIM. HE HAS THREATENED PEOPLE AND DONE OTHER HORRIBLE THINGS TO PEOPLE WHICH WERE UNFAIR. GRAND STANDING IS THE LEAST OF HIS F’ING CONCERNS, GET REAL. THAT FAT MONKEY JUST HAD TO HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY, WHICH HE REALLY HAD NO LEG TO STAND ON. HE SIMPLY HAD EGG ON HIS FACE. AND TO HAVE HIS SPEECH CUT SHORT OR NOT HEARD AT ALL IS THE VERY LEAST OF WHAT HE DESERVES. CRY ME A F’ING RIVER. I HOPE THIS B-I-T-C-H FRIES FOR BEING SUCH A BAD EXAMPLE AND FOR SO MANY OTHER DISHONEST THINGS HE HAS DONE WHILE IN OFFICE. HE HAS A MORAL RESPONSIBILITY WHETHER YOU THINK SO OR NOT TO BE AN EXAMPLE TO THOSE IN THE CITY (SO IT’S NOT JUST BETWEEN HIM AND HIS WIFE), AND F’ING A STAFF MEMBER AND RUNNING AROUND THE CITY WHINING AND DINING THAT T-R-A-M-P IS THE PEOPLE’S BUSINESS. FIRING POLICE CHIEFS AND THREATENING OFFICERS AND INTIMIDATING THEM SO THAT THEY DON’T COOPERATE IN A INTERNAL AFFAIRS INVESTIGATION IS GRAND STANDING. CAUSING PEOPLE TO FEAR FOR THEIR F’ING LIVES, AND FLEEING THE CITY IS A HORRIBLE THING TO DO, SO YOU HAVE INFORMATION TWISTED. NOT ONLY IS HE DISHONEST, BUT HE IS EXTREMELY ARROGANT AND DOES NOT KNOW WHEN TO BOW OUT, AND FOR THIS, HIS FAT A-S-S- WILL PAY.
mimi08

NOT TO MENTION THE TRICK HE WAS SMASHING IS HELLA FUGLY! A UGLY CHICK AND FAT MAN HAVING SEX BURNS THE CORNEAS.
