Hello Yupete,
I am an African-American who works in the financial services area of Arlington County Government. Please be aware that minority group members who are County employees are being pressured to endorse and work for County Treasurer O'Leary's campaign. This is in addition to the dozen or so employees in the Treasurer's Office who are primarily focused on local politics. I was looking forward to Mr. O'Leary retiring. Whatever he says about minority groups he's just another part of the same-old same-old regime.

Dump the decal. Dump O'Leary. Decal costs us at least $250,000 a year, unnecessarily. Frank O':Leary should do as he promised and retire.
I refused to get involved in the staged photos of minority group members that appear in Mr. O'Leary's campaign literature. Fortunately I had a plausible excuse for not being there.
Dump the Car Tax Decal....Dump O'Leary.
O'Leary and his good bud Ingrid run bloated bureaucracies and at least 20% of the jobs are do-nothing paper shuffling, when they are not out campaigning for Zimmerman, Fisette, Baird, etc.
Only the County Board can dump the Decal, not the Treasurer.
If O'Leary didn't want the decal, we wouldn't have it.
Anyone who is for a Green Arlington should be against O'Leary. The unnecessary decal program generates tons of paper and plastic waste and is a burden on vehicle owners who have to remove and apply decals yearly.
Barry, why don't you bring it up at the next Citizen Energy Task Force meeting and see what O'Leary's neighbor, Jay Fisette, has to say?
Want to know why thousands, maybe tens of thousands, of Arlington motor vehicle owners get away without paying car tax every year? Because Frank O'Leary's employees are too busy playing local politics.
Frank also exploits minority students via his annual student decal competition.
Think Frank isn't a racist? Attend his next St. Patrick's Day Gala when after a few hours the N-word starts flowing out of their mouths like Guinness out of the tap at the bar.
Sad that Ingrid puts up with Frank's b.s.
What is the Arlington NAACP doing about this garbage?
Frank is all about 'promoting' minorities. From Level 1 to Level 2.
Only reason Frank wasn't kicked out of ACDC for his racism is because they need Frank's and Ingrid's employees working for their re-election campaigns - paid for by taxpayers.
We love Frank O'Leary. He supports Walter Tejada's, Mary Hynes's and Abby Raphael's three educational prioriuties for Arlington's Latinos and Latinas - Futbol, Futbol, y Futbol.
Yes, I am African-American and am tired of the sh-- we have been taking since Zimmerman and the other Yuppies were elected to the County Board fifteen years ago. Like Fenty in D.C., Zimmerman, Fisette, O'Leary and the rest of them want African-Americans out of Arlington, any way and any how they can do it.
Well, it's time for these corrupt machine politricksters to be driven out of office, by the F.B.I. and the U.S. Justice Department. Starting with O'Leary who is nothing more than a machine pol who uses his office staff to win elections for the other machine pols. If that isn't corruption Obama is a bullsh-- Harvard lawyer who only gives a sh-- about other bullsh-- Harvard lawyers. Enuf said. Arlington Gov't sucks.
Sarah, O'Leary also provides detailed taxpayer information about Republicans, Greens, Independents, and whomever else challenges Democratic incumbents to 'Sarasota Scotty' and ACDC Headquarters.
I transferred out of Frank's office several years ago. I was doing my work and too much of what the no show political operatives should have been doing.
Dump the Decal. Should be a big campaign issue for the Greens. Huge waste of money to generate tons of waste paper and plastic. It's nothing more than an ego trip for Frank O'Leary at our expense.
Dump the Car Tax Decal. Time for O'Leary to retire to Ireland, he will be very happy there. They have the same level of fiscal irresponsibility as Arlington Government.
"Sarasota Scotty" endorsed Frank today in the Sun Gazette on-line, 10 months before the 2011 elections.
In return O'Leary will provide McCaffrey with detailed personal information about anyone who opposes the Dem incumbents.
Frank's good pal, Jim Moran, has legislation pending in Congress to give Frank detailed federal taxpayer information from the IRS.
What do Sleazy Scotty and Slimey Frank have in common? Both provide the financial means by which their respective controllers achieve their insipid objectives - whether it's two expensive and inefficient trolley systems or outsourcing American manufacturing jobs to third world countries.
'Sarasota Scotty' is up to his usual, running weekly PR produced by the County Manager's office about O'Leary and other incumbents up for re-selection.
