One city in action

There were signs last week that D.C. Mayor Vincent C. Gray may have forgotten his own nebulous “One City” slogan — although it is ubiquitous, replacing the D.C. flag as the lapel pin du jour.

Consider as examples Gray’s sudden rush to sell the United Medical Center and his testimony before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee opposing federally financed education vouchers.
