Kwame Round 2

After the SUV fiasco and now this, I really don't think Kwame will be re-elected for another term. In the article it talks about Dennis Archer and his expenses which were nowhere close to this. When I travel for work, I am allowed $55 a day for food and if I go over, I have to pay for it out of my pocket. They have even made it more strict where you have a certain amount for breakfast, lunch and then dinner so gone are the days of eating a bagel in the morning and blowing your whole wad on a dinner. Why isn't Kwame held to the same standard, Jennifer Granholm doesn't even get as much as I do.

Moet & Chandon Nectar Imperial champagne in Atlanta. Lobster tail in Chicago. Limos in Washington, D.C.

As Detroit eliminated thousands of jobs, struggled with exploding pension and health care costs and became a city on the brink of receivership, Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick charged more than $210,000 to his city-issued credit card in less than three years on the job, city records show.
