A D.C. Council Embarrassment
And guess who's at the center of the action.
THERE ARE valid questions to be asked about whether Ximena Hartsock is the best qualified candidate to head the District's department of parks and recreation. Shockingly, though, D.C. Council members at a recent hearing on her confirmation seemed more interested in her ethnicity, gender and immigration status than in her work and educational background. No matter what one's opinion of Ms. Hartsock, D.C. residents should be appalled that their elected officials would subject anyone to such disrespectful treatment.
It gets worse here.
Ximena is one of the hardest working, professional and qualified people I know. This whole scene makes me ill.
