Rep. John Conyers' lawyer insisted Friday that the lawmaker is innocent of any sexual harassment or assault against a former female staffer, but will spend the next two days considering whether to resign or retire due to new health concerns.

What difference does two days make?
From what I’ve been reading, it sounds like he first has to remember his own name.
Sunday news cycle will bury it.
Poll time.
Who has ever been hospitalized for “Stress.”
Question 2.
Who actually knows someone who has ever been hospitalized for “stress?”
I answer No to both.
Melodramatic women who are hoping for The Disability
Stress is not good for the heart or rest of the body. This new system of guilt based on accusations is not healthy for our political system as well as our personal health.
Do you actually know any?
