Barry: That's not what I said

Ward 8 D.C. Councilman Marion Barry called up The Washington Examiner on Friday to tell yours truly I shouldn’t have said he was “blaming” the Office of Campaign Finance for not posting his Jan. 31 report. That’s not it at all, he said, adding that he would have preferred the phrase “Barry explains” that the office did not post his report.

“At no point in time was I blaming anybody,” Barry said. “You’re putting the onus on me. The onus is on the campaign finance [office] they were derelict. They were extremely derelict.”
