DC GUN CONTROL CAVE, and an imposter

“

D.C. Gun control funding restored to Congressional spending bill The U.S. House this week removed a provision approved earlier this year that would have blocked funding for Washington, D.C.’s strict gun laws. The amendment, originally passed by a voice vote in the Republican-controlled chamber in July, was proposed by Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., to H.R.5016, a House appropriations act that funds the District in 2015. However, Republican lawmakers introduced a ‘clean’ bill to Capitol Hill late Tuesday without the rider prohibiting funding for gun control measures. “Yesterday’s victory was an important step in our efforts to protect the District’s right to self-government,” the District’s nonvoting Democratic Rep. Eleanor Holmes Norton said in a statement Wednesday, taking credit for the win in knocking off riders to the continuing resolution which not only included Massie’s funding cut for gun control measures but also one forbidding D.C. from spending money on a legal marijuana program. TWO THINGS: 1) Re: the vote by a Republican controlled House - Do I have to say it?  I thought not. 2) EHN has no more right to a seat in congress than does a Guadalajaran prostitute.  She lives in the District of Columbia, which was expressly denied the right of representation by the United States Constitution.  So, what do Democrats do when the Rule of Law gets in their way?  They make shit up. She is "an elected" MOC; on the payroll; has the right to  speak on the House floor; she can serve on committees, and she can sponsor legislation.  She just cannot vote on stuff.  Whoop-de-do.  Here's some recent Eleanor Holmes Norton, via Dumbocrat Quotes Appearing on MSNBC, Eleanor Holmes Norton tried to fan the flames on the Ferguson racial riots. “Hey, black community! You see what happens when you don't have your own elected officials out there, people who have had experiences similar to your own. I don't understand that. Again, there may be something about the way the elections are conducted in that county. But if I were in that community, the first thing I would be doing is organize voters to go to the polls in November.” Eleanor Holmes Norton, August 19, 2014 Speaking in Congress, Eleanor Holmes Norton claimed Americans do not have the right to know what's going on in the White House. “You don't have a right to know everything in a separation-of-powers government, my friend. That is the difference between a parliamentary government and a separation-of-powers government.” Eleanor Holmes Norton, July 25, 2014  Speaking in the House, Eleanor Holmes Norton claimed the Iraq war was more catastrophic than World War I, World War II, and Vietnam. “And of course in Iraq, clearly one of the unintended consequences surely would have been renewed conflict between the Sunni and Shia, and yet we went in, we went in headfirst, perhaps the most catastrophic war of the 20th century invasion by the United States of America.” Eleanor Holmes Norton, May 1, 2014  Res ipsa loquitur
