RSS FeedBarry Is In The Museum
As if Marion Barry won’t have enough mentions in the annals of history, along comes Madame Tussauds to freeze him in time. The two time Mississippi born mayor who served for two continuous periods in D.C.’s history now represents Ward 8 on the City Council and received news this week that the general DC populace chose him to be in MT’s wax museum opening in the PQ in October. The highly scientific poll was conducted by talking to people at Union Station, the Mall and the future downtown site of MT’s. He went from being placed in the “Scandal Room” to the “Spirit of Washington Room” in less time than you can say “* set me up!” But, as Barry waxes more senior and his most egregious act becomes more distant, Marc Fisher of the WaPo couldn’t be more right – for better or for worse, Barry’s still got pull.
