I believe it is true that no one is forced to live inside D.C. and that the District has always had district status. So, anyone choosing to live here already knows that. Complaining after the fact is sour grapes and really poor form.

No way the dhimmi’s will pass up the chance to get another permanent seat in congress.

Thanks, Andy.

Heather- You know, I’m not a big conspiracy theorist (I’m a diehard conspiracy theorist when it comes to JFK’s murder, but I’ll save that for another post), but the deal between EdBuild and the city goverment is blatantly suspicious, and nobody seems to care. Strange…

So, Who is EdBuild?

How does a 15-month-old non-profit wind up with part of a $2.3B contract? Well, that’s where La Shawn comes in…
