Advertisement The argument began when Conyers asked an independent attorney who was testifying if the council could be sued by Detroit residents for approving the $8.4 million lawsuit settlement. Councilwoman JoAnn Watson said: "They can sue you; I voted no." Conyers told Watson to stop interrupting and disrespecting her. She added: "We all know how you voted; you don't have to keep repeating it." Moments later Conyers interrupted Council President Ken Cockrel as he was questioning Carl Edwards, the Detroit attorney. Cockrel reminded Conyers that he had the floor and banged his gavel repeatedly. Conyers railed: "You're not my Daddy. You're not going to disrespect me. Grow up! Control your house and learn how to treat women." Cockrel told Conyers that she was "one to talk." As the council members yelled at each other, residents attending the hearings yelled, as well.

Detroit: Mayor Kwame "dissed" by City Council & a wtf?
http://www.detroitiscrap.com Check out the video I put together here for full coverage and responses from the warring City Council. It seems right now that the apes in the city council are jockeying for power assuming that they will be able to take up the position of mayor and get all the perks that Kwame had.

Council President Ken Cockrel Jr. told the mayor the news after he sat down at the council table. "It seems as if that could have happened in my office," Kilpatrick responded. "Grandstanding is not beneficial to our citizens." This is the first time Kilpatrick has come before council since it voted 7-1 in March to ask him to resign over the text-message scandal.

www.detroitiscrap.com Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick proposed in his State of the City address Tuesday the creation of six mobile police stations and a $300-million public works program highlighted by new police and fire facilities.
