[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Someone posted on the Cleveland Park listserv a photo of five recently-elected ANC 3C commissioners actually giving the middle finger to a Save Connecticut Avenue sign displayed in the window of one of the Cleveland Park businesses that oppose DDOT Option C.  One of the commissioners who posted the photo on her Twitter wrote [b]“’F’ the ops”[/b] (“ops” meaning opposition).  That’s an “F’” to all who don’t happen agree with them.

Some of these 3C commissioners in the photo were elected by default because they were the only candidates who filed to be on the ballot.  Two of them won contested races by narrow margins.  So their Twitter photo and "winner-take-all" attitude are incredibly rude, arrogant, and immature. Their job as ANC commissioners is not to act as if they have a mandate to push though their personal agendas over "the opps."  It is to listen and represent the views of their various constituents and to try to address the concerns of as many stakeholders as possible.

+1. I was pretty embarrassed and appalled by that image.  To see a bunch of twenty something ANC reps disrespecting a long time CP business and employer was a new low.  [/quote]
