Reputation as Satan's lair bedevils Washington

I've heard a lot of strange things about Washington DC. A lot of people hate the government and call the place evil but this is the first time I've ever heard them refer to the place as Satan's Lair. Even John McCain is calling it that apparently. [i]Presidential candidate John McCain keeps calling Washington the city of Satan. Turns out he's not alone. "McCain was right," said David Bay, speaking by phone from Lexington, S.C., where as director of Cutting Edge Ministries he has long asserted that Washington's streets are positioned to usher in Lucifer as "the ultimate master of Government Center." "You will need to have your maps of Washington, D.C., opened in front of you as we proceed," reads a treatise on the subject posted on Bay's Internet site. [/i] So what do you think? Are you up for calling it Satan's Lair, or do you think people just have too much time on their hands and are looking to start trouble and make a lot of people paranoid? I personally think it's kind of funny. And I think that guy has too much time on his hands.

This just makes me giggle. I can't believe what people are coming up with. I know that Washington has messed up but I don't think it's because of how it's layed out. I also think that guy has way too much time on his hands like you said.

Reminds me of a rock and roll song - "too much time on my hands" only his hands. These people going on and on about Masons, and Washington D.C. and Satan need a REAL job.

I live and work in Washington, DC and I love it. This the place where I wanted to be. Born and raised in NYC, I was always told that you make the money in NYC and get the power in DC. I see myself in a life of politics so I guess this place would be the most logical place for me. It is surely not the place for everyone. It is not for the soft at heart and this place will eat you up. It is not NYC, but its own jungle. Be ready to navigate.
