    Could you put this in the form of a coherent thought, please (not that I think it will be useful)?

    Hmm, not really, as you just generously educated us, the dems have had perverts and sex criminals in the position of power and influence for decades. That, according to you is how it's done in the democratic party.

    Franken is a small timer in comparison to guys like fat Teddy Kennedy and Bill Clinton but he at least is keeping the tradition of leftist hypocrites alive and groping.

    Although this is being labeled as retirement, Conyers is resigning have no doubt about that.
    Now comes the battle for John's seat, will his son or grandson ascend the throne John Conyers has built in Michigan?
    Here's Democrat Party irony at it's best. Democrats don’t want the 'little people' to be able to pass on your estate to your children without huge taxes, but it’s just fine for them to pass on a Congressional seat. Unbelievable.
    The Conyers family is under the belief and impression that the U.S. is composed of 435 mini-fiefdoms, where their seats and power are passed down to family members. Obviously according to Democrats Congressional seats are not decided by the voters.

    You can't "retire" in the middle of your term. The media is terming it as such but Conyers is finally throwing in the towel and resigning.

    Are you saying YOU are able to see a contradiction between the libs' decades long and still ongoing willingness to get in bed with liberal sex predators, rapists and perverts and their current attempts to climb up their high horse and lecture others?

    republicans are no better. this notion that political ideology dictates moral, is part and parcel of rw pathology.

    Republicans play by the rules libs wrote when they elected Clinton fully aware of rape and sex assault accusatons and accusations of smear, intimidation and coverup against Hillary. The Clintons were at the helm of the Dem party for a quarter of a century despite those credible accusations.

    Cry me a river now that your own rules are backfiring, oh, lest we forget your crocodile tears about poor victims of sex crimes whose assaulters were the leaders of your party.
