D.C. Council Dance Party!

For your afternoon viewing enjoyment, LL gives you Ward 8 Councilmember Marion Barry and Ward 3 Councilmember Mary Cheh getting down to “Let’s Get It On.” (Yes, Marion Barry would be the one wearing the Marion Barry T-shirt.)

And here’s Barry dancing with at-large colleague and former mayoral foe Carol Schwartz to “Ain’t Too Proud to Beg.” Behind them, Cheh cuts a rug/lawn with council chair and legendary hand-dancer Vincent C. Gray.

The occasion, you might be wondering, was a picnic—complete with live band!—for councilmembers and their staffs held Saturday at Gray’s Hillcrest home. LL crashed the party; more to come in this week’s column.

    Everybody knows the Honorable Elinor Holmes Norton can smoke those clowns on the dance floor.

  2. JB Says:

    If DC residents can’t enjoy their 2nd amendment rights, why should the DC city council be able to enjoy their dance amendment rights? Why can’t the DC city council do something useful and ban bad dancing by council members?
