WTF? DC councilman wants to rename Pennsylvania Avenue
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 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 ... |

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. Last edited by PortDawg; 02-23-2011 at 9:27pm. |

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. |

Who's bashing a state? It was a joke in reference to Exotix post. What do you just make stuff up to troll when you got nothing? |
