Reason No. 437* Why I Love Our Nation's Capital


Did anyone else notice that just 8 percent of the 371,199 voters in D.C.** are registered Republicans? It's true!

*Other reasons on my list include Ben's Chili Bowl, Ventnor's Sports Cafe, the National Kite Festival, Results The Gym, my best friend, and the easy-to-use grid of D.C., all things made happier by a lack of Republicans.

** That doesn't include the thousands of Republicans and Democrats who drive on D.C.'s streets, use D.C.'s parks, eat at D.C.'s restaurants (crowding them at lunchtime). Those people live in Maryland and Virginia. They don't pay a Commuter Tax to D.C. because Congress won't authorize one D.C. has no power to levy one itself. Argh!
