Finally, Something Good For Detroit!

Monica Conyers has reported to prison to begin serving her sentence.  See Detroit News article here.

My only question (OK it’s a two-parter):

Who actually believes that John Conyers didn’t know what his wife was up to and who was driving his kids to school, and why hasn’t he been prosecuted?

Maybe DOJ is just Holdering out for more evidence.

I Didn’t Do It For You.

Over the years I have heard many current military members and veteran’s say something like this when confronted with leftists expressing their views:

“I, and my fellow veterans, fought for your right to express your views and to keep this Country free so that you always have that right!”

I served 20 years in the United States Army.  I served our Country in Iraq and Saudi Arabia.  I spent long months away from my family.  I didn’t do it so that leftists could express their ideas.

Mind you, I did swear to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.  As such, I fought to defend this great Nation against the kind of political stupidity and freedom suicide that the left engages in.  I fought to defend the best system of government ever created by men on this Earth.  Nothing that the left believes in is compatible with our system or our Constitution.

If you believe in our Constitution, and that it was and is a binding contract between all the States in this Union;  If you believe in the right of each man and woman to enjoy the fruits of their labor, and give to those they wish to; if you believe in the rule of law, not the rule of lawyers; if you love your Country and believe that it is the greatest force for good; then I say to you:
I did it for the Constitution and the Nation, and by extension I did do it for you.

So, those of you on the left (as you don’t fit into the above group), I didn’t do it to defend your ideas.  I certainly didn’t do it to give you the freedom to dismantle the greatest Country on this planet.  I didn’t do it so that you could portray everyone you disagree with as hate-mongers, racists, and extremists.  I didn’t do it to give you the freedom to change a working “experiment” in Democracy over to a proven failure of Socialism/Marxism/Communism.  In short:
I didn’t do it for you.

Cuyahoga County Corruption (Say that three times fast)

You would  probably have to say it many more times than that!  See the Democrat Party statement here:

This is part of the statement.  Don’t drink while reading unless you enjoy spit-takes.

“On August 10, I called upon Mr. Russo, along with Mr. (Jimmy) Dimora, to resign their offices in light of the ongoing allegations. Our party will not tolerate any office holder who has used their public trust for their own financial gain or benefit.”  (emphasis mine)

Really??  The Democrat Party will not tolerate such things?  Since when?  The statement was apparently issued on 9/10/2010.  I guess this means we should expect sweeping changes in what Dems will tolerate from their own from now on.

Thank goodness, and about time.
