(washingtonpost.com) -At the meeting at Ballou, the crowd booed when Williams was announced. But it went wild for former mayor Marion Barry, chanting his name and yelling, "We need you back, Marion."He was on the local news later being asked about a comeback. He said he's considering it. He's done it before, he could do it again.
Chris Rock on Marion Barry:
He smoked crack and got his job back? If you smoke crack at McDonalds, they won't let you back near the happy meals. Your ass is going to be working at Hardee's.Only in DC...

Of course we must overlook poor Marian's past. To do otherwise would imply (gulp) a judgement, which would imply (tremble) moral superiority to crack heads.

And they wonder why the rest of the nation is opposed to giving them representation in Congress.
