[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Move outside the beltway then. [/quote]

You are going to tell me that all DC republicans, half of the Congress and Senate and their aides, etc all live outside of Beltway?[/quote]

They don’t live here, period. (The members themselves, that is.) They keep their house and family in their home district/state, and travel back and forth. The days of Congressional families growing up here are long gone. These days, it’s the member keeping a tiny apartment or sharing a group house that serves as a crash pad Tuesday through Thursday.

OP, you seem to have a very Hollywood notion of what life in the Washington area is like. You also seem to be spoiling for a fight. Our neighborhoods here are likely very much like the ones you have at home: the higher the price tag, the more homogeneous and conservative the residents. But I’m sure if you look hard, you can find a neighborhood that proves or disproves whatever notions you’ve cultivated based on your determinedly anti-woke, anti-liberal “only I know the real story” media consumption. The rest of us are just gonna sit over here with our Post or FT or Hill or ASAE member bulletin and use the back of it to make our grocery list, same as always. [/quote]

Agree, OP seems to be very fixated on this and it is just plain weird. I don't know where you live right now that this is such a problem, and I can't help but wonder if the problem might be you?[/quote]
