Detroit councilwoman's temper still an issue
2009-02-14
Kwame Kenyatta says some of his fellow members of the Detroit City Council have brought negative and embarrassing attention to themselves and the city.

It's almost a certainty that Council President Monica Conyers is part of that group.

Conyers' at-times fiery personality and tough talk come at an even tougher time for a city mired in debt and steeped in scandal.

The wife of Democratic Congressman John Conyers has been criticized for using taxpayer-funded police bodyguards to chauffeur their son to an exclusive private school. Monica Conyers also has opposed legislation that would expand Detroit's aging Cobo convention center.

Conyers hasn't responded to interview requests from The Associated Press.

No thanks Broadhead. Watching the US Congress the past few weeks has been quite enough.

#1  you can youtube the detroit city council and see these clowns in action - it's painfully embarrassing to watch. One of the females was wearing a tiara during one of their meetings and calling one of the councilmen "shrek". They are ingnorant and unprofessional beyond belief. It's no wonder detroit is the stinking piece of monkey crap that it is, the inmates are clearly running the asylum.
