HART: More like hearty laugh

My, my... kindred spirits; Phil Hart, Rosa Parks and Nelson Mandela. After I stopped laughing and gagging, I had to ask myself what kind of hindered spirits was Mr. Kelso drinking when we put those three people in the same sentence. He should have said Phil Hart, Moe and Curly and I could have swallowed that one. Also, why wasn't Mother Teresa, Ghandi and Lincoln mentioned? Now those three were always stirring the pot.

Perhaps we could honor Mr. Hart by inviting various school children to help clear-cut Tubbs Hill so he could build a log cabin on the lake. Surely, there must be some logging loop holes he could find there too.

I feel Mr. Hart is wasting his time in Boise. Let's send him to Washington, D.C., or Wall Street where his talents would be wildly appreciated and applauded.

I would like to end this with what I truly believe; OJ was railroaded, Lindsay Lohan just needs love, and taping a pipe bomb under your wife's car means you never have to say you're sorry.

And please, by all means, send money to the "Free Bernie Madhoff" foundation in care of this writer.
