Mayor Tells Law Dept. to Sue City Council

DETROIT (AP) - The Detroit Law Department has been told to file a suit in Wayne County Circuit Court to stop a City Council attempt to force Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick from office.


Since when can an elected official tell (not hire, mind you - he's made it an order) lawyers who works for the city to file suit against that city because the city is fed up with his shenanigans?

Makes me wonder exactly who, in that supposed-to-be-impartial department, does the mayor have in his hip pocket? (or, should my question be, "who doesn't work for the mayor instead of the city?")


Anyone remember this song? "Oh, there was a crooked man, and he had a crooked house...."
