While that was pretty awesome, Charlie LeDuff seems like a total douchebag.

Well there is some hope for the future for Detriot when these eighth graders finnally take over.

She sounds very articulate and intelligent.

LeDuff isn't that bad. He was on Colbert and seemed intelligent.

Christ, John Conyers needs to put that woman in czech. He must have a humiliation fetish or something.

That's exactly what I was thinking. I have this certain...how should I say it...frame of reference when it comes to politics. Most people play by these "rules" or whatever. This woman is completely hilarious. I think if she did this on the Senate floor she could talk for months--everyone would be incredibly confused. They wouldn't know what to do. When you ask someone to stop talking, they usually (and slightly rudely) finish their sentence or point in very fast talk, and then yield. Responding with "No, shut up" would blow their minds.

It is obvious that Ms Conyers doesn't know that she must shut her whore mouth when men are talking.

I'd vote for that eighth grader. She made that woman look like an idiot.

Not really. But if I were present I'd have to do the age-appropriate thing and give her a time out.

The people of Detroit elected this dumbass and somehow expected something different? Hey Detroit!, stop putting morons in office is the first step to recovery of your city!
By the way, when was the last time you had a council member who wasn't a democrat? This is not meant to say all democrats are morons.

Oh yeah, cause John Conyers is such a reasonable, level-headed, even-tempered, fellow...

 
Chummer45 2008-05-02 04:05:06 PM  
Hahahahahahahah. This woman is the epitome of the horrible leadership of Detroit.

I like how she was holding her standard of conduct to be on the same level as that of an eighth grader. I'd seriously vote for the girl who asked her that question before voting for conyers, the dumb biatch.

Wow, all I can say is Wow. I thought black people like that could only go as far as being a guest on the jerry springer show or something similar to that, not member of council.... If that's the most professional that Detroit has to offer, I can see why people view their region as the Toilet Bowl of America.

I mean we've all seen high government officials say asinine things, or drive drunk outside the realm of the workplace, but this sad ghetto biatch just takes it to a whole new level. She really embraces the term N__GA.

Simple, quick, dirty, effective. This will surely be bit and bit hard. Good show. 9/10

 
BMulligan 2008-05-02 04:18:09 PM  
Personally, I think calling the dude "Shrek" was hilarious! If she had reached in his ear and pulled out a candle I really would have been amused!

 
TheLopper 2008-05-02 04:18:25 PM  
The best or worst part is her sitting there trying to justify her actions and attempting to lecture that little girl, never admitting she was wrong.

pvd021: If that's the most professional that Detroit has to offer, I can see why people view their region as the Toilet Bowl of America.


The problem IMO stems from the view among many in the black community that being well spoken, polite, and educated is somehow betraying your race. The politicians in Detroit have preyed on this mentality by turning every election in to an "us" vs. "them" battle. That's how Detroit ended up with the hip-hop mayor... It's pathetic, but I'm one of "them" so what the hell do I know.

 
Oh_Enough_Already 2008-05-02 04:19:26 PM  
Holy shiat.

The little girl had more tact, poise, grace and smarts than the Conyers.

Little glimmers of hope like that give me hope that the black community may still become a functioning and stable part of America.

Young girls like her should be given full-ride scholarships to any college and grad school she wants, not that Duke Lacrosse coont.

Honestly, if every black rapper/athlete/drug dealer/etc tithed just 10% of their "bling" budget girls like this would have a chance.

There's more than enough money in the black community for every black kid in America to at least be given the chance to succeed.

It's a shame that statistically the odds against her may already be near to insurmountable.

Now, see that? I understood that perfectly.

This is another dialect of Dumbass Biatch which has been diluted by middle school slang and, I suspect, the ingestion of lead paint chips.

Wife 3.0 is always nudging me for translations when we visit my old neighborhood. She can't believe that I can not just understand that crap but can speak it.
