Marion Barry Dead at 78

written by Jeanine Martin November 23, 2014

The always colorful, four time Mayor of Washington DC, and City Councilman from Ward 8, Marion Barry died early Sunday morning.  The cause is as yet unknown. [read_more] The Mayor was known to ignore the laws, even going to jail for cocaine use but the people he represented in Ward 8 loved him, re-electing him over and over even after he served his jail term.  Some of Marion Barry quotes are among my favorites, such as “The contagious people of Washington have stood firm against diversity during this long period of increment weather” and this gem, “I am clearly more popular than Reagan. I am in my third term. Where’s Reagan? Gone after two! Defeated by George Bush and Michael Dukakis no less”.  Marion Barry was a goofball but he was DC’s goofball and I shall miss him.  RIP Mayor.
