Monica Conyers gets chewed up by school kids
In a meeting of the Detroit City Council, Mrs. John Conyers, a councilwoman, starts screaming and calls the Council president (who is bald) "Shreck."
The episode is followed by her meeting with a group of primary school students, who get by far the better of the exchange. A 6th grader says "that's what a 2nd grader would do." And to her protests that, well, you kids have done stuff like that in your life, comes the rejoinder, "but you're an adult. We're supposed to look up to you."

That woman make me physically ill. She is the epitome of everything that is wrong with many city councils, including ours here in Richmond, VA.

This is a legislative governing body. Pericles said if you dont get active in government you will end up being governed by your inferiors.
