@#6: If you think GovSucks now, WTF do you think would happen if the scenario you dipict occurred? Are you deaf, dumb and blind to what the overly simplistic "getting back on track" entails?

It's very obvious the man cares about the city with all he
has managed to accomplish in spite of the wolves constantly sniping at his feet about something the US Attorney's office has not held him responsible for. I know, I know, ...it ain't over til the fat lady sings. But at this point she isn't even in the building.

I question the common sense of people who are calling for disruption of the local political process which was put in place by the electorate of this city. Those who profess to love DC should think about what they say regarding that which would tear the city apart.

Now of course, if GS is trying to stack the demographic of the Council by calling for the resignation of half of them, that's a whole other story. But there is no way in Hell this city's voters will allow that to happen. Ask the wolves who were sniping at Marion Barry.

I love DC but I am disgusted by the seedy, criminal, self-serving elements that are running it; the Council, Mayor and his so-called friends. Through all this it is apparent that Gray and his campaign committee never trusted he could win the election based on his own merits. Now, it is clear how truly lacking in merit he, and his people, are. If he really cared about this city he would resign and take half the Council with him so we can get back on track during these difficult times.

and like all the Presidents Men, the Gray team are pleading to or will be convicted of perjury and obstruction of justice that are far more serious crimes than the underlying offense. Some folks never learn that the cover up is worse than the initial criminal act.

The comparison of President Nixon and Mayor Gray are remarkable, The Watergate break-in was a stupid move that was unnecessary, the Sulaimon Affaire was stupid and unnecessary. All of Nixon's close confidants went down and protected the president but in the end he had to RESIGN. All of Gray's close confidants are going down and may in fact be protecting Gray but in the end he SHOULD RESIGN in shame. Any agency head who was surrounded by incompetent fools I am sure Gray or any Mayor would fire, why would he be subject to any less accountability.

Ignorance is not an excuse anymore...

Welp...as shady as it sounds, they will not be able to pinpoint Gray unless Lorraine Green snitches on him. If she says she acted alone in pulling the team together to carry out this mission, that is one down ass ride or die chick thats dumb lol.

Its tough tho because for Gray to have these individuals around his team, its tough not to pay attention to the patterns of Sulaimon as things are shifting at the debates. It was almost like having Gray, his assistant, and Fenty on the panel.
