DC House Delegate Reportedly Has “Heated Exchange” With President Obama Over DC Municipal Funding
12th October 2013
Democrats may push the line that it’s Republicans holding the government hostage in the current partial shutdown, but Democrats caught in the crossfire don’t feel that way. Yesterday, DC’s mayor Vincent Gray, a Democrat, confronted Harry Reid over Democrats’ refusal to agree to a Republican measure that would fund Washington’s municipal government during the shutdown. Reid responded by telling Gray he was on his side and not to “screw it up.”
DC’s House delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton, meanwhile, reportedly confronted President Obama at a meeting he had with House Democrats at the White House yesterday.
When Obama starts humpin’, ain’t nobody safe.
