so I have mentioned the bizarre antics of Ward 3 City Council candidate Jonathan Rees a few times before. Now DCist has a piece on a lady who wrote him an email about him constantly posting crap on Craigslist. Apparently he refused to stop, then added her email address to a bunch of marketing spam email lists. She wrote him back again and told him to take her off the list. Here is his response:

That is crazy shit. I really think, after reading his nonsensical crap for months, that this is performance art. It's so bizarro, hilarious, and unstoppable no matter what anyone says to him, that I think it has to be a really funny and well-planned art project. Either that or he is completely insane.

I think the DC Politics section at dcmessageboards.com says it all.

The guy is a nut and loose cannon.

Those comments between him and the bloggers on the DCist link are some of the funniest things I've read in a long time.

State bird, state flower, state song...Maybe we should all just agree and make Jonathan Rees the "Official Clown of Washington, DC"

But, did anyone see the thread on DCist yesterday at http://www.dcist.com/archives/2006/02/21/blog_on_a_wire_1.php ? Rees got his butt kicked on that one.
