#1 Atlas Shrugs reports: "Kwame's mother, Carolyn Kilpatrick, is Chairwoman of the Congressional Black Caucus." Obama gave broad support to Kwame.

#2 Obama gave broad support to Kwame

....and will add Kwame's name to the presidential pardon he and Michelle have waiting for the tens of thousands of 'political prisoners' now held in US prisons.

#4 he'll be charged with Felony Assault:
At 10 this morning, Cox is expected to announce that he is charging Kilpatrick with assaulting an officer in July as he tried to serve court papers on one of Kilpatrick's best friends.

Before the Cox announcement, Kilpatrick will appear in Wayne County Circuit Court for an emergency hearing in which he hopes to regain his freedom with a new bond. He already is charged with eight felony counts related to the text message scandal revealed by the Free Press in January. If Cox adds charges, the mayor faces the threat of being jailed again.

Giles' decision to jail the mayor followed a lengthy apology from Kilpatrick, who begged Giles for another chance. He invoked the image of his 12-year-old twins as he pleaded for leniency.

"I am asking for your forgiveness. It will never happen again," the mayor said, his voice quavering as the courtroom scene was broadcast. "My sons are watching this proceeding, because I asked them to. I told them that I did something wrong."

insincere lil f*ck doesn't fall free from the tree, huh?
