City Councilwoman Monica Conyers is only the latest public official to summon the Almighty when the going gets tough.
On Tuesday, when it became clear the feds were closing in on Conyers, she described herself to viewers of her weekly TV show as “a child of God,” and told viewers “if you’re not praying for me, then you’re just adding to the problem.”
Then she added: “All these things that are going on right now … I believe in my heart that God will deliver me from them.”
C’mon, councilwoman. God is not going to help with a federal bribery rap. God doesn’t work that way. Just ask Kwame Kilpatrick.
Nobody in memory called on God as often as the disgraced mayor. And the number of his heavenly shout-outs seemed to increase last year as the pressure grew greater.
When Kilpatrick was in trouble and refusing to resign, he mentioned God so much you’d have thought He was deputy mayor. And in the end, God did not help Kilpatrick. He had to resign, go to jail, forfeit his law license, move to Texas, rent a house in a fancy suburb and buy an Escalade.

In February 2009, the Detroit Free Press Editorial Board opined that Conyers was no longer fit for office due to her increasingly “volatile” behavior. Conyers has yet to respond to these allegations. Most Popular Stumbles

Modern socialism originated in the late 19th-century working class political movement, and in an intellectual movement that criticized the effects of industrialization and private ownership on society. Karl Marx posited that socialism would be achieved via class struggle and a proletarian revolution, and would represent a transitional stage between capitalism and communism.[3][4

Some of these problems include lack of doctors, lack of beds and supplies, and very long waiting periods for medical attention.

If you weren't around last night on Twitter, you missed the brief renaissance of "fat" tweets. To recap, because of a loophole in Twitter's url-shortener, it was possible to create messages of indeterminate length.
