Conyer's Obviously Innocent of Turkey Misappropriation.
John Conyers, (Moonbat, Mi) has been in the news for a while. In November, 2004 Conyer's staff picked up some 60 Turkeys (720 pounds of frozen turkey meat) from Gleaner's Community Food Bank. This was extensively investigated and reported in the Detroit Free Press in January of this year.
According to GCFB, Conyer's had promised an accounting of where the birds went but as of the time of the DFP article, no accounting had been received by the food bank staff.
There are/were allegations that perhaps the staff in Conyer's office had used the birds as "gifts" to various political operatives. In fact, a federal court employee stated that one of Conyer's staff offered him "free turkeys."
A Google search using "John Conyers, Turkeys" produced 27,000 hits and a brief search of the first couple of pages of hits produce no evidence of any accounting for those birds.
Well, being an intrepid reporter who wants to bring you all the news that is exciting and has a conservative bent, I hereby notify you that I have solved the riddle. Here is a photograph of Conyer's AND the turkeys.
All turkey's now accounted for but for some reason a lot more seem to be present.
This is definitely one for the Carnival of the Insanities! LOL
