Captain Ed over at Captain's Quarters may well be touching off a blog swarm around Michigan Democrat Congressman John Conyers, whose staff stands accused of taking charity Christmas turkeys and giving them to friends instead of to Detroit's hungry and needy.
Conyers' reaction to press inquiries? Silence.
If he keeps ignoring this story and the blogosphere goes nuclear, you'll be seeing another demonstration of the power of the tail.

Yeah, I just saw it too.
You mean his ENTIRE staff was involved? And he had SOMETHING TO DO WITH IT or KNEW ABOUT IT? If this is true, then it's Spiro T. Agnew material. If it's not... well, then his accusers will look pretty darn stupid.
Perhaps Mr. Conyers has something to say.
