Let 'Em Rot Says Obama

As Obama continues to try to pass himself off as the 21st Century reincarnation of Martin Luther King Jr., he and his Administration disavow doing anything to stand up for Detoit: 

Team Obama is not a deeply sentimental group, nor is it inclined to make big, dramatic gestures without a clear political upside. That’s why the West Wing has thus far brushed off suggestions Obama make a symbolic trip to the predominantly black, bankrupt city of Detroit — because “there’s not a goddam we can do right now to help them,” according to one Obama hand.

Who can blame them? That city will vote Democratic no matter what.
