Only Detroit could come up with a scandal about “sludge”!
(I can say that. I live here. )
Democrat Culture of Corruption!
John Conyers will be calling for hearings?
“During the lengthy legal and political crisis of Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, Conyers was the only member of Council to vote against a resolution demanding that he resign.[4].” Wikipedia
Demokrats?! Oh the HORROR!
I knew conyers would be part of this...the whole damn family is corrupt...
How could they be guilty?
Hey, where da party at?
Not one affiliation listed in the article about half a dozen (D)s. I’m surprised they didn’t hunt down some distant non-relative so they could say “Kwame and Bernard Kilpatrick, 2nd cousin-in-law twice removed of Detroit-metra-area REPUBLICAN Joe Smith”...
"Giten ovar on D MAN" is what counts, this makes him even more likely to gain creds with his voters. Its all a conspiracy of the white man to keep a brother down. All politicians do this stuff, but if a brother tries it, D Man is gonna try to get him!
This is just all trumped up SH*T!....NOT GUILTY!
You beat me to it.
So this is why Conyers wants his Bush Witch Hunt, to deflect the fact that he may need conjugal visits with his wife in the slammer!
I am not following this as close as I used too, If I am not mistaken, this is just getting going the FBI has much more to go. Am I off base here, or is this just the beginning?
BTTT
Oh, My Gawd! There’s gambling in Casablanca!
Who woudda taut?
New firms tied to FBI contract probe
This is an unholy mess.
"Detroit City Council President Monica Conyers also is under investigation in connection with the sludge contract, people familiar with the investigation said...Federal officials have electronic surveillance evidence that allegedly links Conyers to receiving a payment or payments in connection with the Synagro deal, people familiar with the investigation said...
Sam Riddle, a former aide to Conyers, has said his telephone was tapped by the FBI in connection with the investigation...
According to Rosendall's plea agreement, the aide to City Council Member A told Rosendall that only if Rosendall hired the aide as a consultant would the agreement be approved. (Riddle was the aide).
When Council Member A learned that an intermediary working with Rosendall had not made a payment or donation to benefit the council member, the council member said, "You don't have my vote and you're short," and cursed at Rosendall and the intermediary after a council meeting, the plea agreement said.
On March 28, 2007, the council member voted in favor of the Systematic Recycling deal. The intermediary advised Rosendall that he later paid the council member $5,000 to $8,000 in cash, the Rosendall plea agreement says."

Obama’s Fault
Democrat Culture of Sludge and Corruption.
Does this mean Kilpatrick will go through the revolving door and back to jail?
