We're mad that Obama's limo is using DC license plates?

He lives in D.C. - and the license plate is truthful. D.C. is taxed - but has no representation in Congress.

Not exactly accurate.

As the U.S. capital, the District of Columbia is a special federal district, not a state, and therefore does not have voting representation in the Congress. The Constitution grants the Congress exclusive jurisdiction over the District in "all cases whatsoever."

In the United States House of Representatives, the District is represented by a delegate, who is not allowed to vote on the House floor but can vote on procedural matters and in congressional committees. D.C. residents have no representation in the United States Senate. As a result of the Twenty-third Amendment to the United States Constitution, adopted in 1961, the District is entitled to three electoral votes in the election of the President of the United States.

Because it's so absolutely, appallingly ironic, that's why.
