Wanted: Progressive Thinkers — Huckleberries

With two legislators from the Post Falls area attacking Coeur d’Alene’s proposed education corridor, I wondered at Huckleberries Online last week whether other River City leaders were so shortsighted. After all, someone must be pulling Rep. Bob Nonini’s chain if he, as chairman of the House Education Committee, is actively lobbying for the DeArmond Mill site to be transformed into yet more condos for the well-heeled rather than expanded higher education chances for the region’s high school graduates, laid-off mill workers and single mothers, among others/ D.F.
