Detroit to Scandal-Ridden Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick: Get out!

Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick is the guy who unleashed the "n-word" bomb on prime-time TV when caught lying to investigators about an alleged sex scandal and mis-use of government resources. Ever-belligerent, Kilpatrick continues to insist that his actions and the resulting felony perjury charges aren't his problems. Kilpatrick, who travels with his own tax-financed "posse", says that he's only in trouble because of racism. In so doing, he somehow overlooks the fact that the Detroit City Council is 99% black and a majority of citizens protesting against him are black.

Tax Evader: Rev. Al Sharpton Owes $1.5 Million in Back Taxes

Apparently the Rev. Al Sharpton hasn't yet heard the part that says "..render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's." Earlier, Sharpton, a firm Barack Obama supporter, threatened lawsuits over the Democratic party's handling of Michigan and Florida delegates. The question now is; who'll pay for those court costs?







This isn't the first time Sharpton has been in trouble over his finances. His non-profit, National Action Network, has previously been under federal investigation for handling of funds, including donated monies.

One of Sharpton's staffers complained because federal agents came to her home and knocked on her door, asking to speak to her. In the tax evasion scandal, Sharpton is following his usual line: he's being picked on because he's an activist.

60th Birthday Surprise: Michigan Man Wins $136 Million Jackpot

David Sneath wants a new fishing boat, because he likes to fish. And, he's making sure that he shares the prize money with four buddies who usually pool together for tickets, although this time they didn't.

Imagine winning $136 million. Would you take the yearly payouts or would you take it all at once? How would you spend the money?

David Sneath of Livonia said he still hadn’t returned to Earth Thursday, after winning the $136 million Mega Millions jackpot on Tuesday -- April Fools' Day and his 60th birthday.

“I’m having an out of body experience,” he told reporters, as he met with state lottery commissioner Scott Bowen. Sneath will take a lump sum payment of about $59 million after taxes, instead of the entire jackpot over 20 years.
