[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]@2213:  Clearly, Jeff, you are defensive about this issue, perhaps justifiably for someone who has a history of sticking up for civil rights, but perhaps you're a bit rattled because you just won a nice political battle fueled by privilege?  But here, you went off the rails with the racist allegation.  Crestwood used power politics to get what it wanted, and brought 16th Street Heights (a slightly different neighborhood than yours) along with it.  You'd rather accuse critics of racism than admit you got yours.  Buck up and be fine with a little inconsistency in your world-view, its the way the world works.[/quote]

I have no problem admitting that Bowser did Crestwood a favor and I'm happy she did. But I've already had one son contribute to Deal's overcrowding problem and another in a Deal feeder who would be contributing regardless of today's announcement. Today's changes mean nothing to me personally.

Your statement that Crestwood's "demographic is not the same as west of Connecticut Ave" is troubling, however. If you are not referring to race, than perhaps you could explain exactly what you meant? [/quote]
