Did I say "MBA"? I meant that I played in the NBA. Now let's just focus on our failing auto industry.

We at STBY are no political consultants or snappy cable tv pundits, but our winning strategy for Detroit mayoral candidate Dave Bing would be simple: between now and May 5, shut up. Just press the mute button on your piehole, Hellen Keller style. And silently pray your opponent is a bigger idiot than you.

You see, when you’re running to replace the office of the disgraced Kwame Kilpatrick—best known as the “sexting” mayor who along with his former chief of staff were charged with lying on the stand about having an intimate relationship—being full of shit yourself probaby isn’t the best policy to win over voters.

Bing apologized to the Detroit Free Press today, saying it was “not correct” when he recently claimed to have earned a masters in business administration from General Motors Institute. “I felt I had an MBA for the work I had done in the industry I was in,” Bing said. “When I made references to an MBA, it wasn’t that I went there and got it, but through what I had done.”

(If your head didn’t just explode, congratulations.)

Bing, thanks for clearing up the confusion you caused. Now we all know the only MBA you’ve earned clearly isn’t in business. But in politics, the finest line of study in the world for Moronic Bumbling Assholes.
