Senate President Pro Tem Brent Hill hopes a debate workshop will help prevent news articles that make “state lawmakers look stupid.” I wonder if Republicans Reps. Heather Scott, Judy Boyle and Sage Dixon attended the workshop before or after their visit to the MalheurNational Wildlife Refuge investigating the armed militia in command of an empty Federal cabin/Bob Fritsch, of Boise. Letter to the Idaho Statesman editor.

Question: Are you surprised that legislative leaders are working to prevent sound bites during debates that make legislators look stupid?
