Does it seem like John Conyers is doing more to save America than
anyone else. From voting irregularities in Ohio to the Downing Street Minutes, that man is really pushing. I hope he never backs down...or flys in small airplanes.

18. I should SO love to see
Kerry back him up on Monday and direct American citizens' attention to Conyers' efforts...
In the famous words of Judy Tenuto, "IT COULD HAPPEN! :silly:"

3. He would be Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee...
....if Democrats were in control of the House.

It is HIS place as ranking member to open inquiries, request materials for Congressional oversight, and do just as he is doing.

If you want him to have the power of subpoena and the power to push impeachment hearings, then work like a dog to regain Democratic control of the House of Representatives.

9. You're right. He's effectively the President
In that he's acting for the good of the world and the country.

Freaking shame that good deeds are such a juxtaposition against BushCo.

20. We are so lucky to have him!
If there ever turns out to be justice in this country again, he will be
declared a national hero. Buildings will be named after him. Babies
