Monica Conyers pleads guilty to conspiracy
She faces up to 5 years in prison
Quote:
Detroit City Council President Pro Tem Monica Conyers pleaded guilty this morning to conspiring to commit bribery and is free on personal bond.
Conyers, the wife of powerful Democratic congressman U.S. Rep. John Conyers, appeared before Cohn to answer charges in connection with the wide-ranging probe of wrongdoing at Detroit city hall.
She has long been under suspicion in the Synagro Technologies bribery probe, not least because she had been a vocal opponent of the contract before suddenly switching her sentiments. She became the deciding voice in the city council’s 5-4 vote to approve the sludge-hauling deal in November 2007.
I'm for booting out all of them. Someone that wants to represent the people should be of the highest charater. They should have the fortutude to resist temptations as an example to the people.

And where in the Magical Land of Oz will you find these people? That's what voting is about, if they're bad, they are voted out.
So after we booted them out, who would you have lead us all? Who would run the country?
Well Conyers needs to dump his wife and pick up Jenny Sanford. I understand she will be available real soon.
Hmmmmm, I heard talk of Sanford's wife talking about getting back together. I don't think that she would want to pair off with a black man since she is from the fairly deep south. Just my thoughts.
...said the self Righteous, who would NEVER post a negative thing about anyone.
