kwame kilpatrick, the mayor of detroit who for years had been stealing money from poor people in that city, and he was able to run successfully for reelection using the race defense, and there are thousands of low income pensioners now who are -- have their pension funds are short because of the 40 people he had as a part of his criminal empire who went to prison. there's no outcry in the black community. as far as i'm concerned someone like kwame kilpatrick and others who use their positions of trust to enrich themselves at the expense of poor people are worse than bigots. to me they are traitors. a traitor is somebody who you trust and they violate that trust in violation of you. so, as far as i'm concerned, don't tell me that some bigot that -- who is in my enemy. i would say the greater enemy is people who you trust that violates that trust. if that offends people, so be it. >> okay. i mean, the example that you just used was the example of a person who, you know, i mean, he committed crimes, he was a person who was deceptive and stealing, for goodness sake. he was corrupt. and so
