Rep. John Conyers (D-Mich.), who is embroiled in a sexual misconduct scandal, is hospitalized in his home state due to stress, according to two local reports on Thursday.
"I just spoke with Monica Conyers on the phone and we want you to know that the congressman is resting comfortably in an area hospital. He's doing OK, as well as he can be expected for a gentleman that's approaching 90 years of age," Sam Riddle, a Conyers consultant, told WDIV TV.
"The congressman's health is not what it should be and lot of that is directly attributable to this media assault."

tough to be old and have all the chickens come home to roost
Stress is a killer.
When his end comes Nancy will probably have him laid out in the capitol rotunda. His icon status you know.
In the last couple of days, I saw a video of Conyers, shuffling down the hall. He did not look well & physically, he looked frail & unsteady. Another report said he appeared disoriented when people were trying to talk to him & he certainly doesn’t look like he’s totally “with it”. He needs to go - willingly (step down) or unwillingly (thrown out for using to taxpayer money to cover up his sexual assaults).
I have quite a few relatives in the mid to uppper 80’s and can only speak from my experience with them. I would not want any of them making decisions for me/USA in the halls of government. Personally, I think 80 should be a cutoff for serving in Congress if there are no term limits in place (& I realize Congress will never vote for their own term limits). Conyers has been there 53 years - that’s about 40 years too long, IMO.
“Detroit’s pride and joy.”
Yes, just like Detroit’s “other icon,” Coleman Young, who single-handedly destroyed that city in 20 years as mayor.
The “Black Public Office Readiness Test:”
1. When I hold my arm up next to his, are they the same color?
2. Is he capable of “getting over on Whitey?”
Just like Jesse and his Parkinson’s. Only Jesse got in their before the women outed him.
That’s it... blame ‘The Media’. Who have been your ally for decades.
“He croaks and who gets the blame?”
Ask me if I care?
Stress will do that to a guy. The thought of losing pension or benefits piled on top of the public allegations can compound awfully quickly.
And he is pretty old. May even have the obituary written up already, just waiting for dates to be inserted.
Go to the only place other than Congress where they ALLOW you to walk around in your underwear...John Conyers you brilliant SOB!
“This is his rehab.”
They tried to make me go to rehab
I said, no, no, no
Yes, I been black
But when I come back, you’ll know, know, know

“a gentleman”
Who’s he referring to? I thought this was about Conyers.
lot of that is directly attributable to his inability to keep his hands to himself.
He needs the Boot! Maybe he won’t make it the January retirement announcement. Here’s hoping.
Wonder what the medical code for media assault is?
John Conyers is not a “gentleman”.
Hell is enlarging itself as the “welcoming committee” waits to take him in.
The commie POS cannot be gone soon enough....same way with McStain.
He’s stressed because he no longer has access to his stress relievers - women.
