Stana: I think you need to stop picking on Gus. I may not have voted for him , but I ask you to please all grow up. He lost the election, but this does not make him a punching bag for your adolesent behavior. Can we please be gracious and thank him for his service?
DFO: In most instances, I would agree, Stana. Gus lost. End of story. However, his action (in collusion with Katie and Rick) in banning this blog from the courthouse; his poor attitude since (he doesn’t even talk to the Coeur d’Alene Press reporter either, fuhcryinoutlouod); and his unprofessional insistence on wearing shorts when he represents the county beg for further comment. He’s still a commissioner for the next 5 1/2 months. He should act like one.
