A report on Fox 2 this morning briefly explained new charges being filed against a member of former mayor Kwame Kilpatrick's staff, allegedly for accepting a bribe of $10,000 as part of the sale of a piece of property owned by the city.

The newscaster used the phrase, "to move the sale forward," in describing the reason for the alleged payoff.

Now, that's the best description and truthful analysis of Kwame's repeated mantra of "moving the city forward." 

I hope politicians stop with the "move the city forward" promises, as it is completely bogus and says nothing at all. I've been hearing a lot of it about Pontiac, and I'm not buying it.
