Gee. Remember Wayne Curry, the millionaire former county executive that preceded Jack Son of Wayne Johnson in office? Both men have brought tremendous shame on the nations wealthiest, majority black county. Under Curry, Linda Botts quit her $99,000 a year job with Curry to form a brand new company and voila! Two days later she received a $65,000 contract from Curry. And then there was William D. Miller II, who had a PG salary of $116 K / yr. and within 3 days of quitting that job he magically received a 1/2 million dollar contract non-competed from Curry. Then, of course, there is the fact that only Friends of Wayne FOW i.e., campaign donors were able to get lucrative contracts building and guarding FedEx field. Space prohibits listing all of Currys insider dealings, but they were extensive. One final shot: Both Wayne Curry and Jack Johnson have inexplicably insisted that one of the most controversial, divisive, insider-dealing, backbiting politicos from PG be PGs representative on the Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission. Yes, sports fans, I am referring to the unsinkable but NOT incorruptible Juanita Miller. Among other things, in 2004 Curry/Johnson protege Juanita Miller helped bring WSSC rate payers within days of a boiled water alert because she refused to let a non-minority owned firm supply a critical purification chemical to WSSC. If these small samples constitute good government then I can do without it. I cant imagine why anyone, black or white, would have voted for Jack Johnson or for Wayne Curry.
