Lame campaign but there are plenty of decent restaurants on the strip. Bars on the other...

I have to agree. They should just take reservations. The whole waiting in line thing...
Website says there's no changes to the menu.
I guess there are no black women worth including. Sheesh.
i can’t believe there no American flags in this mural.
Let the snarkfest begin!
I love it. The artists did a great job!
I’m extremely disappointed that this mural does not pay adequate respect to the victims of 9/11.
you must be a newcomer. what about the war of 1812? just sweep it under the rug right?
typical left wing mural bias
The artist did a good job! Very nice likenesses.
I think it looks great. Digging the cool tones of those pictured with the bright, geometrical background. Kudos to the artist(s?).
does ben’s not approve of birds? i see no birds in this mural. typical aviarism.
i like how the artists conveniently ignored the ultraviolets and infrareds. sheesh.
It’s beautiful. Snark is so 2009.
not having a sense of humor is so 3PM may 12, 2012.
Residents of Ward 8 are very disappointed our council member for life is not represented on this mural
All joking aside, Anthony Bourdain should be in this mural because his one visit gave Ben’s more credibility with the suburbanites than Dr. Huxtable could ever provide.
How about some DC natives? All of these guys are transplants! Or in the case of Cosby, a tourist.
Where is Marion Barry???? lol
They should have included Adrian Fenty since he brought Obama there.
these comments are stupid…
yeah? i found them to be pretty fun.
