TGIF Wild Card — 4.6.12

Coeur d’Alene is now in its third day of being held hostage by the Recallers who are trying to topple popular Mayor Sandi Bloem and three council members under the ruse that they oppose a $40M overhaul of McEuen Field. Only the correct figure if $14.2M. Basically, Frank Orzell, Mary Souza, Kathy Sims & their disciples are opposing a project to expand McEuen Field by 5 acres by moving the parking lot and dramatically spruce it up. Bloem & Co. are subject to a recall for trying to improve a park. Amazing. It would be knee-slapping funny if the future of this community wasn’t at stake. Now for your Wild Card …

BTW: Sara Meyer and Jennifer Drake, the young mothers who are spearheading the Stop the Recall countermovement, will be at Huckleberries HQ at 11:30 to discuss last night’s organizational meeting.
