Were they ever truly friends, or was that just political rhetoric?

Answer 1

Obama said "I never knew that side of him"....HAHAHAHAAH

WHAT A ROOKIE

Answer 2

I love how all these Dems refuse to answer the question and try to change the subject; because THEY HAVE NO ANSWERS!  Just like with the terrorist William Aeyers, who kicked off Obama's political life and worked closely with him on the Annenberg project.  THEY HAVE NO ANSWERS!

Answer 3

I don't know either one of them personally = Kilpatrick isn't the first politician to be sent to jail - and he sure won't be the last......there are SEVERAL Repubes that are facing some serious charges themselves!

Answer 4

What do Republicans think of abstinence education only. It used to always work-:) but Bristol screwed it up. Her belly is cute when is she getting married?

Republican Family switching side with pride. Time for change time for peace

Answer 5

Kilpatrick is a thug but, he's a dam funny thug.  Some of his quotes are almost straight out of 50 Cent.  I think he should probably distance himself from that guy though.

Answer 6

They won't care. Democrats hate America or they wouldn't be defending and trying to put into office Obama, who's career was launched in the home of a terrorist who has blown up the Pentagon and the Capitol building. HOW COME NOONE EVER TALKS ABOUT AYERS! WTF!

Answer 7

I do not care. I am just happy that my city finally does not have to listen to a racist mayor that tries to divide us.
