I just read this on the Freep.com page. I wonder what the NEW “phase” will be.. LOL. Tune in tomorrow for the continuing saga…
Alabama attorney Jim Parkman is no longer with Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick’s legal team, a spokesman said today.
Kilpatrick spokesman Marcus Reese issued a statement tonight, saying: “The Mayor has put together a legal team of various backgrounds and experience designed to play different roles during different stages. We are now moving into another phase, the Mayor’s legal team will reflect this transition accordingly.”

I have been searching online for legitimate work-at-home jobs.
Does anyone know of any that can be trusted? There is a lot of information about scams!
Thanks

This was in the Oakland Press today:
Senate wants public to see who pays legal bills
By DAVID EGGERT
Associated Press Writer
LANSING, Mich. (AP) -- The Michigan Senate has passed legislation requiring legal defense funds set up for politicians to report finances to the state.
The bills approved unanimously Friday are aimed at letting the public see who's paying the legal bills for elected officials accused of wrongdoing, including Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick.
Some business and community leaders have been raising money to help underwrite his legal expenses.
Kilpatrick and former Chief of Staff Christine Beatty face perjury, misconduct and other charges stemming from a text-messaging sex scandal and the dismissal of Detroit police officers.
The bills would take effect Sept. 1 if approved by the House and signed by Gov. Jennifer Granholm.

Some of you have only seen me occasionally on these blogs. I tend to read them every day, but choose not to give my opinions very often.
This headline in the Detroit News this morning prompted me to write.
DETROIT -- Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick has vetoed a resolution calling for his own ouster, hinting to the City Council that he intends a bruising battle over members' double-barreled effort to force him from office.
The article is long, but this was the way it started out. KK then makes this statement:
"Kilpatrick also warned that the City Council's decision to ask the governor to intervene also could put their jobs at risk in the future. "
YA THINK?!
What a ridiculous disaster. The article also stated that there will probably be a re-vote, which means that six of the Council members will have to vote to override the veto. Like THAT will ever happen! Someone has to take hold and rid Detroit of it's criminal activity.
I just shake my head when I read this stuff.
