Three Cheers For Dirty Politics

This one doesn’t require much interpretation from me. The item is cribbed from Wonkette, who deserves her own entry one of these days since the woman climbed to blogger infamy due almost entirely to her slutty, sassy and oh so self-centered self.

The details of the story go as follows: Detroit city councilwoman elect, Monica Conyers, wife of Democratic Representative John Conyers, apparently punched another woman, Rebecca Mews, in the face in the middle of a birthday party at some bar in Detroit.

Accounts of the actual incident vary. Shockingly, some alcohol consumption and shouting of obscene invective seem to have been involved. But one thing’s damn clear. Ms. Mews walked away from things with one hell of a shiner (Wonkette runs the photo to prove it).

Conyers’ representatives labeled her behavior as “vigorously defending herself” but we know better. Barroom brawling is a close and much more exciting cousin to bitchcraft. No “good girl” knows how to throw a punch like that.
