[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am voting for Evan Glass because Jawando is a rudderless politician through and through. He has no values- only positions he adopts for political expedience.

Case in point from YEARS ago. I met him and his wife at a playground in Chevy Chase in early spring. They were campaigning for something at the time. I ended up chatting with his wife and when I asked where her rising kindergartener was going to school next year, she told me Rock Creek Forest Spanish immersion. When I expressed surprise- as the lottery results had not yet been released- she batted that away and said, no- that’s where we’re going.

Come to find out, their home school is Weller Road ES, not the best academically. And lo and behold, their child has a spot at RCF in the immersion program.

And guess what Jawando’s issue was when campaigning? The racist effects of the lottery for immersion programs. He KNEW that accusing MCPS of unfair lottery practices (which they were, I don’t disagree) would guarantee that they gave his child a spot at the school he wanted.

So that is what I think of, when I say he blows in the wind. It was political and personally expedient for him to atttack the immersion lotteries and his wife KNEW that their child was going to be given a spot in the program because of it.

Another example is how he did not vote to give MCPS its full budget this year, and then… used his campaign to send out donuts to the social workers and tried to score political points that way with union members.

He is rudderless and a consummate politician. He reminds me of Clinton. Not to be trusted.

Voting for Glass. [/quote]
This is BS.

I am the one who wrote this and it absolutely happened to me.  I have confirmation from others in local government that he will go where the wind blows, so long as it benefits him personally.

I would vote for Friedson before Jawando!

Early voted for Glass. [/quote]

Sure it happened to you. You got the elementary school and the year wrong but this definitely happened.

When did it become a bad thing for elected officials to take positions on bills based in part on the views of voters? It’s only a bad thing if you’re trying to push forward something unpopular like tax breaks for developers. [/quote]
