1. 16th street...

WHERE? What is it with these incomplete posts!??

8. Go to the link.

Web site's masthead clearly states WTOP is in Washington, DC.

The part of 16th that Bonilla's bill refers to leads to the White House.

2. I can't believe "Good Idea" is winning...

Like 55% to 43%, with 2% indifferent.

If they put it to a vote in D.C., somehow, I think it would lose very, very badly.

3. The proposal is already DEAD. It was DOA in the committee

on Friday. Killed - and without kindness - by Tom Davis (R-VA), who called it "ridiculous."

That stupid fucker Bonilla is pandering to his base. He has never intended to get 16th renamed; he dropped the bill to get more votes. He dropped it without calling Norton, DC's non-voting delegate to Congress, and without calling DC's mayor Anthony Williams. What a flaming asshole.

7. Can we rename the street where the congressman lives ...

DoucheBag Lane? Then I'll support it.

9. I was in W., Palm Beach in Jan and accidently ended up on

G. Bush Blvd. Almost lost control of the car trying to not get sick to my stomach. These naming of streets after corrupt politicans are very dangerous.

Plus, you would not believe the fights I had when I flew out of DC a lot last year and kept say I was flying out of National Airport. Then some dummy would point out it was Reagan National, at which point the fights started.

13. we had a bridge renamed for him here in his hometown

when he was president. then the bridge name and plaque was gone..seems the veterans objected to the change.the original name was the "war memorial bridge". the guys who did this are the ones who grew up with him here...
