I want to be a crook like Jack Evans has been so successfully.

I want to have a secret slush fund to help my friends get elected and ahead.

I want to have two faces and wear them well, just like Jack.

I want to have lips as big as Mick Jagger so I can kiss the ass of others, just like Jack.

I want season passes to the Nationals, Wizards and more, just like Jack.

I want to walk into Clydes, order up a $175 dinner and when leaving hear the manager say: ?Its on the house?, just like Jack.

YES, you can now amaze your friends by telling them you most definitely know Jack!

Even with a very admirable record of public service, a council member -- like any official -- is only as good as his last big error in judgement.

Mr Thorpe's fall has already snagged some by surprise; and as we?ve seen even recently with the ECCA hiJACK, Thorpe only really cares about his own back side. Wise people would cut ties to a sinking ship. ANC 2C deserves a council member who cares a little more about something that vexes so many of its vocal voting constituents and community leaders.

If Jack backs Leroy or looks the other way or burys his head deeper in the sand, he may lose a lot of voters the next time he runs for city council. Mr Thorpe has gone too far. It would be nice if he would just go away. Thank g*d Chapple kicked his tail out of the ANC2C02 commissioner seat. Now someone needs to work on completely removing the Thorpe & "Friends" roadblock to progress and civility.

If he is friends with Jack Evans there will be no criminal consequences as Jack will get him out of the box.

What do you think the chances are that this could have criminal consequences for Thorpe?

Lets hope DC follows up on this misuse of tax payer funds.

As Leroy Thorpe and Jack Evans are big buddies, I wonder what Jack Evans thinks of all this?

Well, if the allegations are true, it would appear that Mr. Thorpe is in serious trouble. Where are the computers, sir?

Looks like Thorpe likes to play Santa Claus with others' money.
