Boundary County R’s (Heart) Hart

Boundary County Republicans sent the following letter to House Speaker Lawerence Denney: The Boundary County Republican Central Committee strongly believes that our legislators should be held to the highest standards of ethical behavior and moral conduct. We believe that Rep. Phil Hart meets these expectations and has this committee’s full support and respect. Rep. Hart has, in our opinion, earned the unofficial title of the Conservative Leader of the Idaho House of Representatives. ... The Boundary County Republican Central Committee hereby resolves that should the ethics complaint against Rep. Hart be shown to be unsubstantiated or unfounded, that it would be in the best interests of the citizens of the State of Idaho that Rep. Hart be reinstated to his position on the Revenue and Taxation Committee/Donna Capurso, chairman, Boundary County Republican Central Committee. More here.

Question: What do you make of the position by Boundary County Republicans that Rep. Phil Hart should be reappointed to the House Revenue & Taxation Committee?
