Two more permanent Rat votes in the Senate.

[Perdogg]

Cannot be a state unless there is a Constitutional amendment.

[Tzimisce]

Just what we need: more socialists and Marxists in the government....

[cripplecreek]

If people want representation they should move out of DC or STFU.

[Cvengr]

I guess Obama wants DC to become the 58th state. /s

[LukeL]

Our Founding Fathers wanted our capital to be on neutral territory.

[Star Traveler]

Whatever Obama wants, we should do the opposite!

[Vendome]

Gee, have at it.

Amend the constitution and get err done...

[FlingWingFlyer]

I don’t know why the hell anyone would want that sewer to become a state unless they are planning to move the nation’s capitol to somewhere in the center of the U.S.

[JohnBrowdie]

Comprehensive number-of-states reform. Because our number-of-states-system is obviously broken.

if you like what he did for health care, wait until you get a look at his 213 state country. I hear Shasha and Malia are beautiful in the fall when the leaves turn colors.

[terycarl]

of all the things that this country does not need....2 more democrat senators leads the list...

[gusty]

I believe our side should propose an alternative, one that embraces common sense. Add the population of DC to Maryland for apportionment, and allow DC residents to vote for Representatives and Senators that are part of the Maryland delegation.

[Lurkina.n.Learnin]

Give the whole thing to Maryland and give them 20 acres out in some field in Kansas. Do not allow anyone other then the White house to reside there. It would be centrally located.

[faithhopecharity]

we already have 57 states, how many more does he think we need?

[mikey_hates_everything]

Won’t happen. It was brought up at the beginning of his 1st term. He’s had 6 years to push this and has done nothing. He’s just trying to buy votes for his comrades.
