McEUEN: The 'king' has spoken

The king has had two thorns in his side for many years now, these thorns are the Third Street boat launch and the baseball field. (Poor baby.) This king is very, very powerful, look around you can see his mighty footprints everywhere. Just look at the North end of His Lake. The king has helped put in his right hand men and women to do his bidding. I will call them the straw bosses of the king.

We know this party as the good ol boys and girls of Kootenai County and the outspoken mayor and City Council, who by the way our beloved mayor has already told the lower subjects that they will not have a voice in the decision on the boat ramp and baseball field no public vote nada! Lower subjects, you will be now known has the kings pee-on's. You know who you are - you are the hard working men and women who have struggled for years to make a livable wage for your children and grandkids and have for years have enjoyed the baseball field and ramp along Third Street. Too bad! The king and his loyal straw bosses have bought into his vision! A mecca for the rich and wealthy and to hell with the pee-ons.

Now why is this going to go down this way? Because most of you pee-on's with family and kids couldn't get off your dead butts and vote the garbage out. Garbage is now rampant. Garbage is every elected or appointed official that is sworn to represent all the subjects of the land not one man's view what should be or not!

My feelings are sad! At every level of government, federal state, city, county the subjects or pee-on's are losing everything at a rate that is accelerating at a very alarming rate!

P.S. This will happen again and again, and the king is betting on it! How do we stop it? Vote the garbage out, this is as much your lake and town as his!
