"Bitch set me up." -- M. Barry, Mayor of Washington, DC

Good old Marion has lived his life on his terms. Love him or hate him, you got to respect the fact that he played the race card better than just about anyone in history.

Marion Barry is a retarded racist corrupt piece of shit. The fact that he was elected to DC Council in 2005 after serving time for doing drugs (caught on camera) just shows how pathetic all the nogs are in Ward 8.

Washington Post columnist summarizes Barry's cycle of redemption:

1. Make a mistake.

2. Say you were misunderstood or taken out of context. Alternately, offer other excuses.

3. Give apology-of-sorts, saying sorry for giving “offense” or taking partial responsibility while deflecting full accountability.

4. Endure ongoing public rebuke.

5. Complete cycle by begging forgiveness in friendly territory — more often than not, in a church.

Seen the tapes?

You want a famous quote then I refer you to Marion Barry saying "NO" thirteen times in a row in the FBI sting operation where they used what essentially was a Government hired prostitute to get him to smoke crack. Even so he got convicted.

Yes he got busted for getting a blow job from a female visitor while in prison too.

But, all that was only after several other unsuccessful undercover FBI stings that didn't produce shit.

I'm no fan of Marion Barry at all. Yes, he is a fucking crooked clown and totally corrupt. Yes, he was and still is an embarrassment.

But - all that said, if the Federal Government has to deploy an undercover task force multiple times, fail repeatedly to nail you on something, and then they resort to hiring a prostitute promising sex to get you on tape in a hotel room saying "NO" to crack cocaine 13 times in a row, before you finally give in only because you want to get a piece of ass - well, there is a serious problem with the folks running the undercover operation.

You can quote me.
