Conyers Apologizes but Blasts Ex-aide
July 3rd, 2009Detroit City Councilwoman Monica Conyers, who has admitted to a felony count of taking bribes, went to the airwaves this week to beg forgiveness from residents of the Motor City. “To all of the residents of the city of Detroit, if I disappointed you, I apologize,” she said, declining to go into detail about the circumstances of her case. “I don’t want to get my judge mad at me, and I don’t want to go to jail,” she explained. But that wasn’t Conyers’ only message to the public. “If I was smart, I would have listened to my husband and he never would have worked for me,” an angry Conyers said of her former chief of staff, Sam Riddle. “But sometimes we as women don’t listen to our husbands.” She is married to U.S. Rep. John Conyers, the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee. Her first public comments since pleading guilty last Friday to a bribery charge, Monica Conyers delivered her comments to WHPR-TV (Channel 33) in Detroit.

she is a CROOK, She’s pissed because she got cought,Remmember the little girle that challenged her, She shoulded her true colors then,, She need to go to JAIL.
Given her comments about her former aide, it doesn’t sound like she’s really taking responsibility for her own actions. If she hadn’t been engaged in illegal activity, it wouldn’t have made any difference whether she hired this person or someone else. There wouldn’t have been anything for anyone to expose about her. She must be a very self-absorbed individual. How could she not think about the position in which she was putting her husband and the impact on him and her children?
the little girl was right. this woman is an embarrasment once again. she has proven time and time again that she has no business in politics and should go directly to jail.
