Call me paranoid...

Dude...That's pretty paranoid.

By the way, in case anyone is wondering who NCPC Chairman Preston Bryant is, he was the Secretary of Natural Resources for the Commonwealth of Virginia, with a Richmond mailing address and telephone number. Before that, he served in Virginia Legislature as Republican from Lynchburg (a city noted worldwide for its forward-looking urban planning and transportation policies). Guess what? While Bryant may have done some good and admirable things in those positions, I could really care less what he has to say about streetcars or anything else in the District until he moves here and starts voting and paying taxes here. And I fully support my elected officials pushing back against his interference in what should be a local matter.

Looks like Mr Bryant of the Lynchburg GOP was recently appointed to a 6-year-term by none other than President Obama. Thanks, Pres! Good to see that elections have consequences!

My hope is that, at some point in the next century or so, when a Democratic president is elected, he'll actually take a bit of time to *purge* all the assorted right-wing apparatchiks from various government agencies (say, for example, the MMS) rather than increasing their number in the name of bipartisan comity.

Sigh.
