I guess it runs in the family. Poor kid never had a chance, given his genetics (snort).

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Didn't Johnny's old lady just report to the slammer?

...$27,000 in Fillmore concert tickets had been swiped.

Yeah, OK. Just planning a small get-together with close friends...?

[DBrow]

$27K in concert tickets? So the kid was running a private business using the fed vehicle.

And I can’t wait to see what was on the laptops!

Looks like he became a target. I bet lots of folks knew the tickets were in there, but with the bar codes, they probably won’t get anyone into the concert.

“The Congressman’s son told police he parked the 2010 Cadillac Escalade”

+

“were stolen from a government-registered vehicle last Wednesday in downtown Detroit”

[freeplancer]

I smell insurance payout and keep-the-loot alert.

[Smokin' Joe]

$27,000 in Fillmore concert tickets ?

Anyone have any idea how many tickets that would be? Sure seems a mite steep for an ordinary date...

[TheBattman]

I have another question - why is the government buying 2010 Cadillac Escalades?

Is a Chevy Tahoe not good enough?

For that matter - why would out government be driving anything that burns so much fuel and is so environmentally “unfriendly” - considering they are still thinking on restricting US?

But who really thinks this will be investigate?

[ml/nj]

Why was the son of a Congressman driving a government vehicle?

Little People are not to ask impertinent questions.

OK, first question:
Why is the U.S. Government providing ESCALADES to Congressman.

If the Government did not, who is going to JAIL for Tax Evasion and Vehicle Registration Fraud??

[cripplecreek]

Who the hell approved the purchase of an escalade anyway?

[realcleanguy]

I smell Wikileaks. Democrats are becoming the most corrupt organization ever. It’s time to build the gallows

[badpacifist]

2010 Cadillac Escalade

Isn't he Amish?

[Siena Dreaming]

Mom's in jail. Dad's reading Playboy.

The kids are running wild.

[reagan_fanatic]

Maybe Daddy did it. Perhaps he heard there was boxes of Playboys inside.

John Conyers III turned 20 this summer and apparently celebrated with a bottle of Moet champagne, which he showed off behind the wheel of a stationary Cadillac.

Another question arises and is made more serious if it is the same vehicle...drinking age is 21.

[Luigi Vasellini]

wtf??? Govt. vehicle is a Caddy

[FrankR]

WHY are Charlie Rangel, John Conyers, et al allowed to be criminals and remain in positions to make and influence laws that would send the rest of us to prison for such behavior?

Why does black skin trump the laws of the land and the Constitution? Civil Rights wasn't meant to be about this. This is abuse of power, pure and simple...and there is no way around it.

The penduleum has swung back too far the other way, and it needs to be centered again.

As long as the word "racist" makes us blink, we'll never be rid of the criminal element in this country.

John Conyers should be severely reprimanded for using taxpayer money to register a vehicle to the government and then allowing his family to drive it for personal use. Do we even know who paid for the vehicle...probably we taxpayers.

I work hard to pay my taxes and highly resent the money being an open ATM for those who want to live the high-life...hear that Conyers? Rangel? Maxine? Obama? Michelle?

Crooks...one and all.

[Frantzie]

Total corrpuption in a totally corrupt country. They are all protected by the news media.

[mewzilla]

On a related note, from this past spring....

Members of Congress spend tax money on luxury cars, high salaries and perks Senators, representatives boosted own budgets by 5 percent last year

[earlJam]

A government registered Cadillac Escalade?????
