DC councilman wants to rename Pennsylvania Avenue


WASHINGTON—A D.C. Council member wants to highlight the city's lack of statehood and is asking residents to pick another name for Pennsylvania Avenue.

Among the options on the online survey are Let D.C. Vote Way, 51st State Way and Free D.C. Avenue.

Council member Michael Brown is considering a ceremonial renaming and the sign could be placed under existing markers for Pennsylvania Avenue, which is home to the White House.

The survey also asks residents whether other Washington streets should be renamed. Washington's 600,000 residents pay federal taxes but do not have a vote in Congress.

D.C. would be better off if they'd simply eliminate all of the state streets. Why take a perfectly good grid and screw it up with diagonal roads?

i am surprised they don't want to re-name it Martin Luther King Ave.

We already have one of those.

D.C. is just an acronym for ****ed up beyond help.

It used to be. The new one is "Chicago".

:skep:

I think we should re-name a whole buncha stuff in remembrance of the Bush Administration ...

Like *Cheneys' Whitehouse 9/11 Bunker* ... *My Pet Goat Rd.* ... *Wolfowitz' Iraq Holocaust Memorial* ... *U.S. Embassy in Iraq Condominium Rice Homeless Shelter* ... *Rummys' WMD Way* ... *Colin Powell I was lied too too Blvd* ... on and on ...

How about Barney Frank's Community Bathhouse, Nancy Pelosi's Home for Retards and Succubuses, and Dirty Harry Reid Boulevard?:D

s'all right ... how'bout *Beckerheads' Goldline Bush Great Depression Blvd* ...

He's been out of office for over 2 years. Get over it.

And leave your lib BS in your circle jerk in PR&C.

Sorry ... when I saw this one I figured we were on *Fake PR&C OT Daftness Blvd* ... http://i52.tinypic.com/15rl2s8.gif

I wouldn't mind this. Pretty humorous in a non politically correct way.

Let D.C. vote way or 51st state lane is dumb. You're the Capital City, not a state. Deal with it.

How about "If you don't like it, move to Maryland and shoot people there" Blvd.

How about going to the States and put your money where your mouth is and try? :cheers:

Or is it easier to pretend to be a bad azz on the Internet? :D

Let's see what happens first. :leaving:

Threatening a chick on the internet. Genius.

Now boarding to PR&C -ville....All Aboard....Please refrain from the racial innuendos. Please.

Actually just the opposite, if I had a problem with how someone names a street in a State I don't even live in; I'd write a letter to the Govenor.

Not bash the State on a Corvette Forum. See the point?

Just to be crystal clear; partner. :cheers:
