"the D.C. delegate, 77, awkwardly forced her way into a wide-open spot in the carefully controlled corridor of New Jersey Avenue Southeast sandwiched between the Longworth and Cannon House Office buildings. “If she parks like that she should not be a member of Congress anymore,” one mystified observer — who wisely recorded more than a minute of the automotive travesty — said as the video was being captured. The tipster said Norton rubbed the correctly positioned, red sports utility vehicle to her immediate left with her improperly angled silver sedan."Is it an important story? No. Is it even really newsworthy? Nope. Is it funny? Yeah. It's funny. Seriously. ....Just watch this. Even her aide seems baffled by what Ms. Norton is up to: Lest you think this is just a wacky little clip of someone who is clearly incapable of operating a motor vehicle, you should rest assured. This is a genuine scandal. Ms. Norton hit the car next to her - repeatedly - and didn't leave a note!
Once done with her business, the tipster said Norton backed out of the space and rolled out onto the unsuspecting District streets. “She hit the car next to her and did not leave a note, though I couldn’t see any damage,” was our spy’s takeaway from the mid-day drama. Norton’s office disputes that anything untoward transpired. “After the Congresswoman parked her car, we assessed the cars on either side to see if there was any damage. We could not find any,” a Norton aide assured HOH. “But we left a note with a business card so the congresswoman could be contacted in case we missed any.”Anyone buying that? No? Ok.
