Values Alliance Resurrects In CdA

Having been the guy in Idaho to seal the tomb on the Religious Right a while back, saying that it is dead in Idaho, I found the following thing interesting: The Idaho Values Alliance has a new leader: Mr. Gary Brown (pictured). Here’s the link to their website, so you can see both his intro note AND Bryan Fischer’s letter of hand-off to Mr. Brown. A couple months ago, I was introduced to Mr. Brown and found him to be an affable man and very well spoken of. He was introduced to me by a close friend and I sat for about 40 minutes listening to him tell me about his life. His decision to locate to CdA — rather than Boise - was a curious thing. Not sure how that will work — or even if it is a part of the new IVA plan to lobby at the Capitol, but we’ll see/ Dennis Mansfield . More here .

Question: Why did the Idaho Values Alliance select Coeur d’Alene rather than Boise for its HQ in its newest incarnation?
