Time to suspend faith in humanity again:

Marion Barry Wins District Council Race

Former Mayor Marion Barry (D) tonight capped yet another revival of a long and often turbulent political career as he easily won election to the District Council as the representative from the city's poorest neighborhoods east of the Anacostia River.

Sigh. Let the good times roll.

"Goddamn setup . . . I'll be goddamn . . . bitch set me up."

UPDATE: Protein Wisdom runs with a Jeopardy theme.

Aww, come on, Bill...

You must have lived in DC long enough to know that Barry has an inimitable gift for blowing smoke up the rear ends of the DC "underclass"! He makes impossible promises; tells everyone that they're losers, but that's because Whitey is oppressing them; then goes back to the public teat.

He's been doing that since the '70s and the suckers buy it every time. He should be listed as a controlled substance himself as he's completely addicted the majority of the DC population to his brand of crack-think.

There's a blast from the past I could've done without. Insanity: doing the same thing over and over but expecting a different result.

Well, not quote - at least we've got a good mayor now.

I wish you luck. I lived in NoVa for twenty years where the local reporting was much more DC centered than it is here in MD and the decline in the quality of DC representation was not pretty to watch.

Wow! Think I'm breaking ranks here, my hero. That looks like sweet stuff!

- In spite of Kerry camp's sour grapes challenge in Ohio I think there's no doubt Bush's victory will stand.... Congrats to all Bush supporters... My Home State came through!!!!!!!!

- Go ahead and celebrate....Kerry is toast....With Bush leading in NM and Iowa and Nev and Wisc very tight the LurchKerry team is whistling in the cemetary.....

The crackheads have re-elected their king! He provides us all with a good deal of humerous material though, you must admit.
