Shea’s trip highlighted by MSNBC

MSNBC, though liberal commentator's Rachel Maddow's blog, is featuring Spokane Valley state Rep. Matt Shea after he appeared at a survivalist rally over the weekend.

Shea's comments at the rally, as reported by the Coeur d'Alene Press, are similar to ones he's made at other events in the last few years. His views were known when he easily won reelection last year, and he was backed for reelection by U.S. Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, R-Spokane.
