Hey, remember that time the president lied under oath about some inappropriate behavior with a subordinate and got impeached by the House of Representatives? Apparently Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick doesn't!
The embattled Motor City mayor lied under oath, it seems, about having an affair with his chief of staff last year. Now that sexually explicit text messaged between the two of them have been published everywhere they've both been charged with perjury!
If there's one thing all these various sex scandals should teach any public official who has a hard time keeping it in his pants it's this: just admit it and say you're sorry. In extreme circumstances, you may need to check into rehab and write a book. But there's a formula is the point, and lying under oath isn't part of it because then you just lose your job.
Kilpatrick says that he looks forward to getting cleared in the upcoming perjury trial. So do we Kwame, so do we.
