RSPA: Is Anti-URDers Conspiracy Theorists?

Rainbow Sparkle Pony Angel: It may or may not be a complex issue but these questions (re: the urban renewal district) have been answered ad nauseum in here and frankly, this is boring me to tears. If it’s boring me, it’s probably boring others even worse because I’ll read almost anything and I’m constantly yearning for the truth and searching for meaning in every aspect of life. It seems you anonyweenies just want to take shots at Mike and continue to lose yourselves in the trees and never realize there is a forest to see. I don’t think this stuff even rises to the level of tempests in teapots. URDtaskForce is what? Four guys drawing conspiracy theories on napkins with Sharpies and asking the waitress at Dennys if she could bring some marionberry syrup for their pancakes?

DFO: I’ve wondered about the same thing myself. How many people really are concerned about the urban renewal district? Four? Six? A dozen? A whole bunch? The movers and shakers dismiss the noise out there re: the URD as being from a half dozen individuals who have access to media (Coeur d’Alene Press, HBO). I think there’s much more. Frankly, however, I can’t tell how many. Does this thing really have legs — enough to affect the City Council elections? Or are people happy with what’s being done with URD revenue that has enticed developers to do things right in upgrading the downtown area and waterfront? I’m still in the latter group.
