Adams: I represent Christians
From David Cole’s report of the Coeur d’Alene City Council debate last night:
Adams, an independent insurance agent in Coeur d’Alene, started by saying he would work in another term to overhaul urban renewal, reduce labor costs at the city and reduce property taxes. But it was a comment he made about religion that drew the sharpest responses from MacNeil and English, a former Kootenai County clerk. Adams, early on, said: “I represent the constituency, the Christian conservative constituency, that desperately needs representation in this city. I don’t believe Bruce or Dan have the same philosophy as I do.” “On the characterization that maybe the other two of us don’t hold the same Christian values that you do … I resent that,” English responded. “I very much identify with my Christian faith.” “I applaud Dan for what he just said, and I agree, and it applies to me as well,” MacNeil said.
