I'm loving this even more than when Kwame went down.

..is she related to Congressman Conyers?

RTFA...

Ah yes. She's his wife. Should have put that in the headline subby, it would be flamier.

/Conyers is a douche.
//apparently, he's married to one too.

I am ONE THOUSAND PERCENT positive that HE is the father!!!

Presidential pardon in 3, 2, 1...

ObeliskToucher: Presidential pardon in 3, 2, 1...

John Conyors led the fight to have Gerald Ford (my favorite) impeached for pardoning Nixon.

John Conyers also filed to have GWB impeached.

He married Monica after he accidentally knocked her up and is about 30 years older than her. She got elected to Detroit City Council based on name recognition alone and was basically on the take from day 1. And she's a racist biatch to boot. Rot in prison you stupid coont.

The girl grilling her at the end was great.

DAMN THAT. NEVER BUSTED. BUSTED IS WHAT YOU SEE.

Honestly - why would anyone be surprised by this story?

Whee, Detroit thread! Let me go make some popcorn...

Hey, wait a minute...

Was she trying to bribe somebody into moving to Detroit?

Couldn't happen to a more appropriate idiot.

Benevolent Misanthrope: Click here for attractive and successful African-American woman goodness (pops)

That was hilarious. You could see her thinking "if this camera wasn't here, I would beat your ass!".

You said bribery twice.

Bribery doesn't count when you are in Detroit. Its cultural. Also, she had her fingers crossed when she took the money, so she had that going for her.

Seriously... this biatch is an awful human being,. You need only hear her talk for about fifteen seconds to completely figure out what a scheming low-life she is.

I'd bet a full paycheck that at some point she had "What Have You Done For Me Lately" on a non-stop loop.

BackAssward: retarded partisan hack.

You don't see the irony in this statement?

Good lord that video is amazing.

I have a desire to smack her upside the head, as the kids say.

Maybe his wife will get off now. Never suggest investigating ACORN.


The House Judiciary Committee Chairman has backed off his plan to investigate the liberal activist group the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now also known as ACORN.

The Washington Times reported that Rep. John Conyers D-MI had called for hearings on ACORN to look into several possible crimes, including voter fraud.

Conyers said that the powers that be decided against it. But he wouldn't say exactly who told him to call off the investigation.

The Washington Times also reported that Capitol Hill Democrats bristled at the idea of the hearings. They were concerned that it would re-ignite criticism of President Obama's close ties with the group.

At the risk of someone going Tropic Thunder on me, having people like this in charge is why Detroit will never recover.

Conyers was solemn in court, having to be asked three times by the judge to speak up.

Hag got busted, don't cha know?
Lost her braggadocio.

Where are the good black leaders at?

The_Time_Master: Where are the good black leaders at?

The White House.

Speaking on the stupidity of elected officials, did everyone see the hilarity that ensued in the Louisiana State House of Representatives?

What hilarity you ask? Asking a Rapper to preform a song about farking Halle Barry while the house is in session. (new window)

What does Wayne Rooney have to do with anything?

Guess not enough people answered the requests she made on her weekly tv show to pray for her. Gah! Hope shes never heard from again. What a disgrace.

Wayne Rooney? You mean this guy?

DarthBrooks: /should NOT be obscure.

Damn you for beating me to it :P

Yea this does kind of bring out the giggles in me. Then it makes me wonder what good old John is up to in DC.

What do you want to bet that her guilty plea keeps them from investigating her whole family (read, her husband).She does a little time in club fed, and he keeps his congressional seat, and whatever he is doing (and let's be honest, they are probably ALL doing something illegal) gets swept under the rug.

atlanta_ufo: .... ACORN.




BOOGA! BOOGA! BOOGA!

If you want to see how truly mind-bogglingly stupid (and racist) Monica Conyers and the rest of the Detroit City Council is, just look at how it dealt with Cobo Hall (new window).

Depends on what your definition of 'is' is.

Houston, huh? Have you been to Vancouver? 'Cuz i've been to both, and frankly, there is no contest.

The entire state of Texas except for the Big Texan Steakhouse (which would make a kickass and delicious embassy) should go back to Mexico, and all of you can be bulldozed into the Gulf.

Is that what ACORN changing its name to now?

I'll be honest with you, it's the accepting bribes that annoys me more than the lying about it.

Having such a lowly opinion of the democratic party, I'd hate to hear your thoughts on those crappy republicans.

Now now settle down. This is Detroit. D or R doesnt matter. Anything touching Detroit becomes corrupted.

FTFA: The Detroit City Council Research and Law Department is looking into whether the window between Conyers' guilty plea and sentencing date allows her to remain at the council table.


Really? Really? Pleading guilty to selling your council vote doesn't automatically boot you off the council? Really?

Man, the Charter of the City of Detroit was put together by the same quality of leaders we still have today.
