As a resident of DC I feel the need to defend our city. Joe needs to stop talking about DC and the mess on the highway. That is Virginia's problem since that highway is in Virginia. I was here during the Marion Barry administration, and, yes, that did happen during a major snow storm. However, since Mayor Williams, DC has gotten much better handling the snow in DC. Williams made a ton of improvements which continue to this day under the succeeding administrations. Joe knows not of what he speaks.
