ELECTION: Wind for citizens' sails

Many facts and figures that have come to light in this past week indicate that the City Hall of Coeur d'Alene is at sea in shallows near rocks and shoals with the operations of the city. Insiders have brought forth a Sayler they hope will offset the heavy weather they know is coming in November. This action was much like the school board did when they came forth with Wanda Quinn to retain the balance of power of "their" board.

Even with this Sayler on the crew you will hear the "thump" "thump" of his rubber stamp much like we did when he was in the State Legislature, following the Party Line. George has openly stated that he thinks the guy in the White House is doing good for Idaho (11.6 percent unemployment locally). Tell that to a guy I know who took a cut in pay just to keep his job. He also has said he does not support a public vote on the McEuen Park issue. Oh as an aside: Do you know who owns the city library? Call LCDC and ask them - they know. Just one of the rocks and shoals mentioned above.

As it has been said back east, "There are many Titanic happenings going on in the other party." Vote Dan Gookin and Steve Adams in and they will bring the city ship about into fair winds and following seas.
