Marion Barry (Washington D.C. City Council - Crack Junkie)

"We've got to do something about these Asians coming in, opening up business - those dirty shops.  They ought to go...I'll just say right now, you know.  But we need African-American businesspeople to be able to take their places, too."

WOW!  No, not that Barry is committing Minority-on-Minority Crime - that wouldn't be news to anyone.  What's amazing is Marion Barry is still alive and kicking in the Democrat Party establishment...Which says much less about Barry than Democrats.

In case you've forgot:  Marion Barry was Mayor of Washington D.C., until he was caught on tape smoking crack cocaine.  I guess this hasn't been a problem for the Democrat leadership, however, and Barry sees it as nothing but a conspiracy:

"The biggest challenge I've overcome is the FBI setting me up...People in Washington understood what they were trying to do."

In perfect Liberal stride, instead of accepting that he was a crackhead Barry went on the offensive against those who caught him, and threw in an accusation of his own against them.

Oh well, lets get one more quote from the ex-mayor about what he's up to these days:

"I'm doing God's work.  I have made public service my ministry.  God gave me a great brain, courage, charisma, vision and the kinds of things that make leaders."

Barry truly is an example of the old saying:  "Tis strange - but true; for truth is always strange; Stranger than fiction." - Lord Byron
