DC is having issues because former Mayor Fenty and his "Ace" legal team of advisers decided the Bill of Rights didn't apply to them.

They got their ass handed to them by SCOTUS with Heller. Now, instead of just following the decision they are trying to be too cute with several follow up regulations they tried to push through that are also being thrown out.

As the loser in what is a civil rights case, they have to pay the legal expenses of the winning side, somewhere around $3 million.

I fail to see what Congress or the GOP has to do with this issue in DC, but feel free to enlighten us with any cites you have to explain your rather bizarre take on this.

Oh, be sure and let us know when you're appointed the official DU judge of what makes a good Democrat too. You'll be about the 15th self appointed apparatchik we've had down here. Until then you're just another "fart in a wind storm".
