Sherry Dart of Green Hedges School: Bought and Paid For
From the Sun Gazette today comes this from a member of the Maud machine:
Sherry Dart, who teaches at Green Hedges School and lives on nearby Lewis Street, said the proposed improvements are essential to the school's future. "We can't expect Green Hedges not to change," she said. "To not evolve is to stagnate."
Guess what? A few months before today's quote Dart was telling neighbors that she would never support the school expansion, but supports it NOW only since she works there! Show Sherry Dart the money and she will roll over and let you tickle her tummy! Everyone has a price, eh? Sherry once your services are paid for, do you offer a receipt for tax purposes?
On top of that, three years earlier Sherry Dart read this letter (PDF) at a Town meeting. Sherry Dart is virulently opposed to the removal of properties from the District. Dart's house touches the border of the District, but is not in the District. She lobbies for others to be in it, but she doesn't want in herself. Lastly, Dart's house at 331 Lewis Street, NW is on this list of so-called historic structures. Just another Maud crony forcing inconsistent politics on everyone except herself...
Comments
What about the other hypocrites like George Creed whose wife teaches at Green Hedges while he refuses to recuse himself? Laura Anderson a trustee member at Green Hedges opposes opening of Church Street because of incresaed traffic volume, but will support the doubling of the size of the Green Hedghes School creating even more traffic! Nice.

Is she trying to equate Darwin's Evolutionary Theory to the growth and expansion of "her new found cash cow?" It's amazing how quickly people's allegiances will change when money is involved. Reminds me of the joke whereby a millionaire is asking a women if she will sleep with him for a million dollars and she says yes. Then he asks if she would sleep with him for 5 bucks and she exclaims, "NO!...what type of person do you think I am?" And he replies, "Lady, we have already established what kind of woman you are. I am now simply haggling over the price."

As a journalist, I have never been involved in politics, local or otherwise, but I do have a commitment to the truth. What has been written here about my wife, Sherry Dart, not the truth. The truth is that she has taught the first grade at Green Hedges for more than 20 years and has always been devoted to the school and dedicated to its students. Before we moved to Vienna, she taught at public schools in Florida and Georgia for another decade. I guess it depends on your perspective but I don't think many people enter the teaching profession because it is a "cash cow." And unlike "Townie," who implied that my wife is a prostitute, I have the courage to sign my name.

Well, Bob, I guess you are involved now, in politics, for the very first time in your life. Your unbiased journalism line just flew out the window.
