I don't care who the mayor sleeps with, but the 9 million dollars it cost us is the problem.

Expensive piece of tail wasn't it? I sure hope she was that good in bed to cost the city that much. But then again majority of ya didn't care what he did you re-elected him.

The function of wisdom is to discriminate between good and evil.

So he is a liar! So is Bill Clinton! And they are not the only liars in office having affairs. There are certain people who I believe want the Mayor out of office because they do not care for him and they will do whatever it takes to get him out. He was just stupid enough to get caught. The person who leaked those messages obviously did not care for the Mayor. 

Look, everyone has some kind of problems in there marriage! But dont lie to EVERYONE about it. The truth always come out. They are in the public eye almost everyday. Stuff like this ALWAYS comes out. I feel bad for his wife and kids. He isnt doing Detroit any good, he hasnt done anything for the city. Even his family has taking money from the city. HELLO Detroit, wake up!!! Now this! Get this guy OUT OF THERE! Look at all the money that the city has to dish out because they fired those men. That money could have gone to so many things in the city. Its funny how when the super bowl comes to town he bust his butt to get the city cleaned up, now look at it. Crime is up, kids are without books, there are a ton of house that need to be torn down, but hey detroit re-elected him!! NICE!

While I understand how sad and tough it is for the Mayor's wife and kids to endure the embarasement of these new "charges" one fact remains perfectly clear; the Mayor DID NOT take in to consideration his wife and kids feelings when it mattered most, before he started the affair! I have no sympathy for the Mayor he put himself in this position, I hope he ends up facing charges! 

It truly bothers me when people dig up mess from your closet from several years ago and make it public business. How would you feel if someone dug up in your past and brought stuff up in the media? All of us are guilty of something. I DONT CARE IF HE IS THE MAYOR!!! Because Detroit was having problems way before he came into office. I am often ashamed of the treatment people do here and I have been here only 6yrs. Until your closet is fully clean of things your have done to other or immoral, dont you dare point the finger at anyone regardless of their title!!!!

Leave the Mayor and Chief of Staff alone because they are human just as you are. You have done issues and made mistakes often in life. This is nothing but a witchhunt of someone who is successful and trying to rebuild this glorious city.(I am born & raised in Buffalo,NY) And not many are saying it but the Mayor did not deny what he did!!! THAT TAKES INTEGRITY AND STRENGTH TO DO SUCH A THING!!! So clean it up together City of Detroit because we all together have to stop pointing fingers and start looking in the mirror.

So now it's just a financial situation ???????   

No........it's called lying,   lying is called perjury,  the result of perjury is impeachment.  

I suppose next will be President "hillary" in spite of   her past of Vincent Foster (suicide, yeh, right), Whitewater, Travelgate and trading stocks illegally and getting away with it.  Then slick Willy will be back in OUR White House .  Oh My............

  

 

 

 

he needs to get out of office and grow up and take his buddys with him and the get some one that knows what detroit needs and get the city back on track  and he can take all of his girl friends with him  i think he is a pimp with ladys working woodward or strip clubs GET HIM OUT OF OFFICE NOW HE COSTS TO MUCH FOR THE CITY  >>>>>>>>> 

Look, he is a public figure.  Every single thing he does is scrutinized, he knew what he was doing.  Lying on the stand was what he did and now he is paying for it. Sorry I feel no sympathy for him at all.  He should have thought about his wife and kids long ago, because of his actions is why they are suffering.  Dont blame the news.

celes:

I honestly think we as a city and as a people should stay out of it. what good will it do to disscrase a good man who has helped this city so much. I hate it when people interfere withe other peoples personal lives, leave the poor man be.

"We as a city" LOST our money, money that we don't have to pay for his lies. If you have money lying around to just toss wherever that's fine but I can tell you that the majority of the citizens of Detroit just don't have it like that. The point is this, if he and Ms. Beatty didn't lie, we would not be paying, LITERALLY for it now.  Wake up!

hope he has a alot of money his wife  will take every last dime he has  she should castrate him that would fix the problem he has been a pain in detroits  a-s for long time now

Well, I know people that read my comment would say I'm just as bad as the Mayor. But dang...that is one fine lady!  We all know that over 80% of married men (probably higher than that) had one time or another cheated on their spouses. It's probably just as high for the women. This is human nature. If my office manager looked as good as that lady, I'd lie too! The Mayor just got caught. We all know that Congress are just as sexually involved with other women besides their spouses. But, folks like former Speaker Newt Gingrich and  Mayor Giuliani hid their affairs very well. No one made a big deal about them and  these guys want to be President of the U.S.

The Mayor was stupid for using city property to send the text. Hell, even my young son knows how to TRY and conceal info on sites he visits on the net. For that, I have spy cam! :-) Lying under oath was bad enough. Now he'll end uploosing his law license. My oh my, what will we do for a living now.

The Mayor knows  the media loves smuck! I'm sure they had this story for more than three years. They just had to get thier facts together. Now, it's all over the world! Sex sells, I don't care what form it's in. This story will lead all the major and cable networks today. The only people that hates this story more than these two sex maniacs are the Clintons. They will loose air time. This will make getting their sleaze out a little harder today ( but then that's another story).

Mr. Mayor, I must say, if you were going to have an affair, you couldn't have done it with a more beautiful woman. I wish the best for your family and hers.

The rest of you geeks out in blog land need to get a life. You're beginning to sound as bad as Bill and Hillary. Before you cast your stones at the Mayor, try looking in your own closets from the past!

MR ARCHER CHEATED ON HIS WIFE AND HAD A  BABY........SHE WASNT  A SISTA EITHER.  WOW!

the mayor is  no better than anyone else when it comes to lying under oath.his aid beatty and himself should pay the price.he should not be allowed to be a lawer and kicked out of office and possible jail time.she should be charged also.and then you have the exspece of a 9 million dollar pay off from the city.detroiters deserve better than this

HI Steve,Can the race card be played here? Lies are all that comes from the mayors mouth since day one.Seems no-one cares about the truth.Baseball players,Mayors,Presidents should all be held in a higher standard that teaches children respect! If these people are to be looked up to,what kind of message does that send to if they do not prosecute these "Higher ups".I say that if KIM WORTHYS office does not take firm action,then Steve needs to investigate her too and find out why!! We need accountability .Send a message now,lying will not be condoned.   Bigjim G.
