She addressed the growing calls, including from Democrats, that John Conyers should face the music over allegations he sexually harassed a junior female aide. The case was resolved with a $30,000 payment from taxpayers. And it was kept hidden from taxpayers&nbsp;until a couple weeks ago.<\/p>\n<p>Now Conyers has&nbsp;stepped down as ranking Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, but he\u2019s still in Congress. He says the hush fund payment was not an admission of guilt. It was just a quick way to dispose of the situation.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy Pelosi stood by the guy, sort of. In her typical convoluted style, she danced around the question of whether Conyers should immediately resign. She said, \u201cWe are strengthened by due process. Just because someone is accused \u2013 and was it one accusation? Is it two? I think there has to be \u2013 John Conyers is an icon in our country.\u201d That\u2019s what Pelosi told F.
