Life in "Progress" City

From the "progressive" city of Detroit, who hasn't had a republican run the city since Hitler was an aspiring artist.....

City Council member Monica Conyers, the wife of powerful Democratic congressman John Conyers, pleaded guilty Friday to accepting cash bribes in exchange for supporting a sludge contract with a Houston company.

Conyers, a fiery 44-year-old first-term council member, admitted in federal court to a single count of conspiracy to commit bribery, responding quietly to questions from Judge Avern Cohn.

She faces up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine when she's sentenced.


A coincidence that Conyers stopped his investigation of ACORN right at the exact same time his wife made her plea deal?

The real question though is this; when dear Monica gets out of the slam will she be reelected?

Thanks to reader Becky for the tip.
