I should have posted this days ago....
But perhaps this is why D.C. voters are so enamored with the recovering crack-addict politician Barry.
Apathy, it appears, goes both ways - D.C. voters couldn't possibly have high expectations of their civil servants, with corruption running deep in the layers of D.C. politics, from city government, to corrections officers, to budget analysts, to school officials, to Child and Family Services, to the mailroom clerks in the Health Dept., to the Department of Youth Services.
And while the city is shaking from what is said to be the "biggest fraud ever perpetrated against the D.C. government," politicians are shaking their heads saying "People steal."
This is apparently what D.C. voters expect of their of politicians - crack-smoking and stealing.
So, why not welcome back one of their own.

I expect crack smoking. I admit it. Something has to be responsible for their poor decision making.
Speaking of bad decisions, I have tagged you, if you're not sticking solely to politics. Have some fun. C'mon.
DAMN! Leslie tagged you before I could. That ho! Well, looking forward to seeing what you have to say. Also, I feel ya on the DC thing. It's so strange to me that such an awesome city can also be such a corrupt, poor, drug-riddled city. In one spot you've got some of the greatest pieces of American History, but a few blocks away you've got poverty and violence. :-(
