HEADS UP! They are going after Rep.Conyers "Tukeygate"

[underpants]

I found this while looking for something else. This will surely be part of any news accounts of Conyers today. I have no idea if this hasn't been resolved but as of today it appears not to have been.

This is the original Detroit Free Press article (see below to see WHERE I found it).

Apparently there hasn't been a reply yet and that is being extrapolated by Rush and the Washington Times. Once accused.....

Where did turkeys go?

The director of a Detroit food bank wants to know what happened to 60 turkeys -- 720 pounds of frozen birds -- that his charity gave to members of U.S. Rep. John Conyers' local staff two days before Thanksgiving to give to needy people.


Conyers' Detroit office promised an accounting of any turkey distribution by Dec. 27, but the Gleaners Community Food Bank had received no paperwork as of Tuesday, said the charity's director, Agostinho Fernandes.

3. Imagine that

Hey Con creeps your "SBV Nuke Option" is now on the table. That's right America the propaganda monkeys are out of their cages and putting together smears that you are sure to go for. After years of faithful and scrupulous work John Conyers is now a turkey felon. Oh you'll buy it America. You will buy the bomb. Dud or otherwise.

4. Not that it proves anything but ...

according to this article:

http://www.pencomputing.com/frames/textblock_icomm_2003.html

Agostinho Fernandes is a COnservative Republican.

SO there might be other motives for him raising this issue. Karl might have his pudgy, smearing fingers involved.
