Re: [WardFive] Fw: [ward5] Report: D.C. Stinks At Getting Residents Hired in Construction Jobs (Loose Lips)

Rob,

You really should' have stayed away from this conversation but that isn't like you.  The fact of the matter is that the Commissioner jumped out there and wanted to lodge a full frontal attack on me because I simply warned KPW (someone who I truly respect and consider a friend) that she should be mindful that there were incorrect statements in a report which she spread.  I didn't want her to be linked to pushing a faulty report which was produced by a group for personal gain not to actually discuss issues.  I then said that I couldn't speak in full detail about it at the time but that more information would be made available.

In turn the Commissioner decided to lodge a full personal attack on me which had nothing to do with my statement instead of being an adult and asking a follow up questions.  She then dug deeper by typing a bunch of unsubstantiated, uninformed bullshit which she tied to mask with a personal attack.  My simple response to her was that she should do her research before speaking on an issue and I left it at that but again she wanted to bring up bad examples of a program in New Jersey which comes from a program which was originally thrown out by the U.S. Supreme Court and then further attack me for not being an uninformed poverty pimp like her.  Never mind the fact that her example of taking cars full of people to job sites is destined to fail because it is common knowledge that on most construction sites in the Mid-Atlantic and North East which would include the place she now serves in Ward 5, her previous SMD in Ward 6 and her original home of New York that most hires aren't done at the job site for safety reasons but at  off site locations.  But then again if she couldn't show her failed logic it wouldn't have helped her to try to make her case for not doing her research.

Then of course you jump up to support her uneducated and uniformed statements all the while holding her out as an educated and intelligent role model.  Further you try to tie in your constant example of how you try to teach and mentor any young person in this ward who seems to have more information then you by telling them what to do all the while by attempting to use them as a researcher so that you much like the Commissioner don't have to do any actual research.  This sir is a poor example of leadership and if this is what you call trying to teach me and the others you have given this same speech to sir, I like the majority of them must respectfully decline. 

As to your personal attack sir much like Ms. Ransom's it is truly laughable considering that many of the things which I have been able to accomplish you have tried to mirror.  Sir it is great to know that you both have to result to childish bully tactics because you can't have a real discussion with someone who you both apparently are smarter than.  I will continue to keep that under advisement.

Finally as to your continued racial attacks they don't warrant a response.
