[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Jeff, really appreciate your words here. Wish that folks were able to understand that Barry is not just the Vista Hotel. [/quote] You're right, he's a lot smaller than that.[/quote] Exactly. Barry as mayor ran DC into the ground. People weren't getting basic services, schools were bad, the bureaucracy was bloated and surly, and finances were in shambles. It has taken over 20 years to recover from that and begin to get city services to a barely acceptable level. It will probably take another 10 or 20 to fully overcome all the damage Barry & Co. did. Barry's personal misconduct certainly demonstrated that he is unfit for public office and turned DC into a national laughingstock, but his real "legacy" was making DC synonymous with Dysfunctional City.[/quote]
