And, honestly, she was about as coherent as your average DC wino. She said something about Guantanamo (the closing of which the Democrat didn&#8217;t fund last year either) and something about the district&#8217;s murder of unborn children and DC&#8217;s residents funding the same. <\/p>\n<p>DC should be embarrassed that this illiterate bonehead represents them in Congress. But, I guess she&#8217;s the result of some obscure jobs program. But, I&#8217;m pretty sure that if DC residents quit electing knuckleheads like Norton or Holmes or whatever, they&#8217;ll be  a step closer to statehood rights.<\/p>\n<p>I remember when they thought they&#8217;d get representation in the Senate back in 1993, they elected Jesse Jackson, who wasn&#8217;t even a resident of DC. With an absolutely ignorant electorate, who wants to give them voting representation in Congress?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Delegate Eleanor Holmes-Norton compares the government shut down to &#8220;bombing innocent civilians&#8221;; Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton &hellip; <a title=\"The face of false outrage\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=22869\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">The face of false outrage<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[155],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-22869","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-shitbags"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22869","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=22869"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22869\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=22869"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=22869"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=22869"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
