In his report of the emotional "Add the Words" hearing and vote Wednesday, reporter Jeff Selle of the Coeur d'Alene Press wrote about comments by state Rep. Kathy Sims, R-Coeur d'Alene, who serves on the State Affairs Committee:

Rep. Kathy Sims, R-Coeur d'Alene, said she could not support the bill either. "This has been 21 hours of some very compassionate testimony and I've listened to it all," she said. "But you know, the time I spent on Idaho's Human Rights Commission taught me that mediation and compassion can be effective for both sides." She said she had concerns about the loose definitions of the terms that were proposed in the legislation, and added that eventually the Idaho Human Rights Commission would deal with the issue. "So I'll be voting to hold it in committee," she said. "But I'm sure that eventually we'll continue to listen and we'll continue to work." Full story here.

Question: Do you think the Idaho Human Rights Commission is the proper entity for dealing with the "Add the Words" issue?
