*plays tiny violin* "@marionbarryjr: DHS and USCG are hosting a soft opening at St. E's west campus tomorrow, & I was not invited to speak!"

D.C. corruptocrat Marion Barry is beside himself. The U.S. Coast Guard is opening a new headquarters in Ward 8 and according to Barry, he wasn’t invited to speak at the soft opening even though he’s the councilmember for that ward.
It’s too bad Twitchy didn’t play a role in the decision. We’ve been waiting for months to see Barry tweet, “Twitch set me up!”
I spoke at the groundbreaking, but not invited to speak at tomorrow's soft opening. That's an insult to the residents of W8!

Carol Mitten, a sr. official at Homeland Security, told me directly via teleconference that I would not be allowed to welcome the ppl of W8!

Rather, I would not be allowed to welcome the US Coast Guard to the people of Ward 8!

I'm sure the Secretary of Homeland Security did not support this disrespect!

This is a bad way to welcome your neighbors, and I am taking this message directly to Secretary Napolitano!

Better act fast! Big Sis is just about ready to wrap up that whole DHS thing. On the other hand, maybe — just maybe — there’s a perfectly reasonable explanation for excluding Barry from the ceremony:
@marionbarryjr psst your a crack head. Why would they want u?
