#1 I wonder if Rep. Conyers was affected somehow by his wife Monica pleading guilty to a felony on Friday. She has not yet been sentenced. Does she know something he doesn't want publicized?

#2 I guess not, since U.S. Attorney Terrence Berg told the Free Press Friday that John Conyers did nothing wrong.

"I also want to make it equally clear that the evidence offered no suggestion that U.S. Rep. John Conyers, Mrs. Conyers' husband, had any knowledge or role in Mrs. Conyers' illegal conduct, nor did the congressman attempt to influence this investigation in any way."

#3 "The powers that be decided against it," Mr. Conyers told The Washington Times

That "be" Barry and Uuself I assume?

#4 the US Atty takes direction from Obama through Holder. Conyers dropped the Acorn investigation due to "the powers that be" when HE is the committee chairman. Can you connect the dots?

#5 I think Obama has something on Rep. Conyers that turned up in investigating the Mrs., and so he can pull the strings whenever he wishes.

#6 One would hope that Representative Conyers cared about his wife's immediate future, even if he were not involved in any wrongdoing himself. This puts him even more in a position to be pressured.
