Wasting Time With Alex

Congressman that wanted to investigate ACORN forced to give that up?

It looks like John Conyers, a powerful democrat congressman and House Judiciary Committee Chairman will be abandoning his plans to probe ACORN.

Mr. Conyers, Michigan Democrat, earlier bucked his party leaders by calling for hearings on accusations the Association of Community Organization for Reform Now (ACORN) has committed crimes ranging from voter fraud to a mob-style “protection” racket. “The powers that be decided against it,” Mr. Conyers told The Washington Times. The chairman declined to elaborate, shrugging off questions about who told him how to run his committee and give the Democrat-allied group a pass. Pittsburgh lawyer Heather Heidelbaugh, whose testimony about ACORN at a March 19 hearing on voting issues prompted Mr. Conyers to call for a probe, said she was perplexed by Mr. Conyers’ explanation for his change of heart.

It took a lot of balls for Conyers to come out and go after ACORN. This group of thugs & crooks are real well connected. They are directly responsible for some shady voting that helped elect Obama president. They have also been rewarded with billions of dollars of tax payer moneys for that effort. The list of seriously questionable things they are involved in is long. So I was impressed when Conyers, a democrat himself, came out in favor of investigating them. But, while I was worried some foul play might be involved, I felt perplexed by this turn around. A little research led me to find out that Conyers’’ wife, Monica Conyers, recently pled guilty to conspiracy charges and things came together immediately.

Oh sure, this could be a coincidence, but considering the pattern set where any media that gave the Obama people a hard time was banned and the shady IG firings, just to name a few retaliatory strikes that these people have taken, you will forgive me for suspecting a connection. One I am sure the MSM isn’t interested in pursuing or researching, I bet. This is one hell of a coincidence. Can you imagine the news cycle if something like this had happened during the Bush Admin years?
