[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up in DC in the 70s and 80s and lived through many incompetent mayors but MB took the cake. I remember him cutting back city services like garbage collection and you’d have to wait days to get your street plowed. He was a crook and an imbecile but he had personality so the natives fell for him. He was an embarrassment and anybody with a modicum of intelligence understood that.[/quote] The DC Public Schools had even had no toilet paper. The Mayor for Life era was a pretty sh*##y time in Washington.[/quote]
