Why are they deciding if Washington DC should have a representative in Congress?
nytimes.com article
1. Washington DC is a city. (Should New York city have their own representative in Congress?, what about L.A. or Chicago? when would this end?)
2. Washington DC is pretty clearly within the boundaries of Maryland to anybody who has working eye-sight. Pretending that Washington DC is some special vatican-like region that occupies some magical geographical space should come to an end. All of the residents of DC should just be considered residents of Maryland.
I don't see why ending the make believe is so hard for some people.
