Goodlander: Naysayers Blind To Good

Councilwoman Deanna Goodlander: I wish I could understand Representative Sims motivation, As an elected Representative, I think that she seems only to represent herself and a small group of angry people who are determined to find a conspiracy somewhere, somehow. I wish we were able to use the taxpayer dollars (hours) that are spent gathering public records and transmitting to her and her fellow conspiracy seekers Sousa, McCrory and Culbreth for something that actually adds value to the community. It would be refreshing if in all their presentations they would tell the whole story instead of half truths and innuendo.

Question: Would you want to run for elected office or serve in elective office in the poisoned political environment of Coeur d'Alene?
