Come for the Politics, Stay for the Pathologies

Can you spell c-h-a-r-t-e-r-s-c-h-o-o-l?

Do you remember Otis Mathis, our Detroit School Board president who is functionally illiterate?

Well, it now appears that he’s also a bit of a Perv. Yes, that’s right, Otis has been accused of masturbating in front of a school superintendent – apparently this was “habitual” behavior.

I’ve already said more about this than I care to, but the blogprof, as usual,  has assumed the mantle of full disclosure. So do go there for  the full, sordid details. Indeed, you can’t make this stuff up.

I certainly can’t explain any of this other than to remind you that here in Detroit, we eat our young.

And don’t worry. If things don’t work out for Otis on the school board, his plan B is to run for Congress using the Al Greene-North Carolina game plan. He’ll be using the pseudonym “Otis Williams” to cash in on the Motown mystique. If you would like more details on the Al Greene plan, Ann Coulter has it all laid out: Alvin Greene: The Most Qualified Democrat I’ve Ever Seen: 

Yes, how could a young African-American man with strange origins, suspicious funding, shady associations, no experience, no qualifications, and no demonstrable work history come out of nowhere and win an election?”

I hope you enjoy it half as much as I did.
