Conyers looks like death warmed over

Post by RiverguyVT »

He should resign. He did it.

Franken's apology tour yesterday was pathetically self-entitled and self-serving. He is sorry for what he can't remember, and will learn from what he can't recall. What a tool.

D's are hilarious in their selective use of "innocent until proven guilty"

Is everyone up there a deviant?
The R's had the "wide stance" guy.
What a world....

I wonder if there is something about power that makes people feel they are above the law and their actions have no consequences.

You have it (maybe to a lesser extent) with athletes who think they can do anything (like shoplift in China) and not have consequences.

Conyers has been in the House since the 1960s! It's long past time he resigned. The nation and the job have passed him by long ago.

Conyers is a perfect example of why Dems win and Republicans lose. He's in a 100% safe Democrat seat, and no Democrats are calling for him to step down, yet they're calling Moore a pedophile based on...?

They have no shame and will use the morals of those on the right against them.

There are CBC Dems that want him to resign. If he doesn't have CBC support, he's done.

Not sure who on the CBC, although Clyburn has admitted they've been talking to Conyers and will have an announcement tonight.

Kathleen Rice and Jayapal have both called for him to step down. Not sure if there are others, but this is their 2nd day back, so expect more.
Obviously there are those like Pelosi who want to save his legacy, and fall directly in line with your comments above.
