But the crackhead mayor still has a council seat and plenty of friends on the city payroll.

He's not the crack head mayor, he's the crack head city councilman from Ward 8, who gets consistently re-elected to office by his constituents. That's no business of mine since I live in Ward 4.

I pay taxes so his friends can get paid by DC government, so it is my business.

Now the brothers in Ward 8 hated me a lot more when I had a hot black girlfriend, now they just want me and my tax dollars to go back to Virginia, so the Fed gov't can take the city over again.
