NEPOTISM: Graves wasting resources

| October 23, 2011 10:00 PM

It is unbelievable that the candidate Adam Graves is wasting taxpayer dollars to have three hardworking, honest young men fired along with the pursuing of possible legal action for alleged nepotism. I want Graves and other anti-everything people to know that those boys were working for Parks and Recreation as scorers when they were teens. They gave up hours of their weekends and nights to be there for the children of Coeur d'Alene. They were reliable and consistent. They were good students, did their work and never made trouble. Instead of being fired, they should be thanked for their community service and for being good, honest, high quality citizens. That is why they had those jobs. Goodness sakes!

Stop the stupid. Stop wasting time and money on stupid issues. Edinger didn't give prime jobs, such as chief finance officer or police chief positions, to his family; that would be nepotism. His family didn't make tons of money, go on extravagant vacations or throw lavish parties on taxpayer money. No. He raised wonderful children who in turn raised wonderful boys.

Law or no law, it is now the town of Coeur d'Alene's loss. Get a grip.
