Arlington's Neighborhood Conservation Program "Probably Illegal"

Hello,

I'm a paralegal in a law office where civil rights and discrimination is a big part of the practice. I also live in South Arlington. Near as I can tell the County's so-called "Neighborhood Conservation" program is exclusionary and blatantly discriminatory. Money is diverted from comprehensive infrastructure maintenance and improvements to a few neighborhoods for extravagant beautification projects. Hope this posting will help get my street repaved sometime within the next 10 years.

South Arlington Parents Consider Suing School System for Discrimination

Yupette, we are really pissed at the Arlington School System because of the overt discrimination against South Arlington kids and for North Arlington kids. The Neo-Segregationists and Elitists are stripping funds from the 2011 School System budget for South Arlington's de facto "vocational" segregationist curriculum to send their spoiled White and Asian brats to TJ High School.

We heard that President Obama listened to our complaints when he visited Wakefield, but we aren't going to wait until the U.S. Department of Education gets around to suing, we're going to sue the Racists and Elitists ourselves.

Year Around Shelter for the Homeless Still "Under Consideration"

Hi Yupette.

The Arlington Yuppie Board again refused to commit to year-around housing for Arlington's growing homeless population at yesterday's CB meeting. Arlington's population has grown by about 22,000 (11%) over the past decade and many who were added to Arlington's population since 2000 are of households that are well under the poverty level. Meanwhile, funds will be stripped from essential services in the 2011 budget to fund the County Board's pet projects and pet special interests.

County Board Helped Support Corrupt Right Wing Salvadoran Government

Hello Yupette:

Seen in the Wall Street Journal on March 8th.

Under Presidency of Tony Saca (President of El Salvador between 2004 and 2009) the right wing Arena Party allegedly diverted $250 million of World Bank economic development funds to various "interest groups".

During the same period the Democratic Arlington County Board was developing close ties to the Salvadoran Government, including a "sister cities" program and several trips to and from El Salvador by both Arlington County and Salvadoran Government elected officials.

Just to let you know where our tax dollars are being spent.
