Sunday Spin 2: Say what?

Sen. Pam Roach, R-Auburn, during a hearing on an encounter with a constituent suggests why public officials might want their addresses off their required financial statements: “We live out in the boonies…I was alone and somebody drives up into the driveway. This guy looked like a hoarder or he was from some place in – excuse me, I love Idaho – from Northern Idaho or something… This guy was a whack job. Right there. Because he knew where I lived.”

It’s not clear how many whack jobs troll the financial statements for legislators’ addresses. But one wonders how Roach would have described him if she didn’t love Idaho .
