Of those 27 cities in the Glassdoor list (two sets of twins), only two Republican and one Independent mayor.
Might as well say that Detroit was ruined by mayors who were men, or guys in suits.

Please lets leave politics out of this discussion.

The discussion was about cities that need a large 50,000 employement base, Denver was discussed as not needing one, Detroit was discussed as needing one, how is that politics? Other than I mentioned Democrat mayors, which is what Detroit has had many years of, not politics, history.

What was the point of stating the political affiliation of the mayors of Detroit, if not to bring politics into the discussion?

Leans in listening attentively for your reply.

maybe you should read attentively, it was historical not politics, the only reason why it now has turned political is because of you wanting it that way by attacking what I said, which only means one thing, your a democrat, had I said republican you would have never responded with all this political mumbo jumbo. Now see, now you done it, you made me go political by responding to you over this.

I attacked you? Wow, that's an interesting take on my question. Then you claim I "made you go political"? I had no idea I wielded that much power. I'm the one responding with "political mumbo jumbo"? Hmmmm..yeah, right. Thanks for the morning laugh! Congratulations, you made my ignore list.

With all due respect, it was gasman (a moderator) who called you out for bringing politics into this thread.

Denver's mayor is a Democrat, has been since 1963....

No matter how it started, politics is a one of the stated in the forum rules. Please do not push it any further.

With all due respect to the mod, I don't care who he is! I don't tip toe around "important" people, they put their pants on the same way as I do. What I said I stand by, it was a simply a historical intent and no political intention. If it will make him happy by saying I was bringing politics into it then so be it, then you make him happy with your comments, but I won't make him happy by changing what I said, or lying by admitting I was being political because it wasn't political. How many more times do I have to say this? It was historical, although now it has become hysterical!!

That's the problem with this world, we get into wars over political misunderstandings or misinterpretations that were never intended to be political but they evolved that way.

The mods have decided that this thread is closed as it has drifted from it's original question and purpose and brought politics into the discussion even if the person who did so doesn't recognize it.
