[quote=Anonymous][quote]Nadeau was her usual mess on The Politics Hour today on WAMU. She's awful, but, in all seriousness, who on the Council is not? Gray (who has no power so long as Bowser is mayor and ignores him) and arguably the chairman.[/quote]

The progressives on the Council are particularly odious.  I moved to the District in 1990 when the middle class (all of the white MC and a large majority of the AA middle class) had fled the District.  There was only the upper class ---who sent their kids to private schools, the remainder of the AA middle class---who sent their kids OOB to WOTP schools, and an extremely poor multi-generational poverty underclass---who used the remainder of the public schools, which were in such terrible shape that they literally could not open on time.  14th Street and H Street were boarded up and derelict, and had been since the 1968 riots.  The District is far, far better in multiple ways now than it was then.  But the progressives' tolerance of the encampments and push for policies that protect criminals and encourage crime are going to send us right back to those days.[/quote]
