OPINION: A serious case of mistaken identity among Idaho’s three political parties

It was a pleasant surprise to find a letter from Governor Brad Little when I opened my mailbox on June 10. But it was unsettling to read his warning against voting for Idaho Democratic candidates who might endanger his “record of success.” Thinking back over the years, Democratic legislators have played a significant role in that success. For instance, the Governor’s letter touted the Idaho Launch program, which provides kids with workforce training grants. That program would not have seen the light of day in 2023 without the essential support of House and Senate Democrats. They gave it strong support again this year. In fact, the Democrats in the Legislature have given the Governor support on numerous issues since he took office in January 2019.

GOOD OL’ DAYs: Plenty of good things about them

Susan Crowe’s Good ol’ Days column, June 8, is another in a long string of grievances by those who insist on keeping the memory of American wrongs and injustices, particularly, in Ms. Crowe’s case, committed by “the white middle class,” and by “white males, towns, and families” at the forefront of our history (see Communist manifestos and treatises on how to seize control of a nation). I see a deep-seated distain by her for America since its inception, i.e., founded by white Europeans (inherently wrong), and everything has gone downhill since then.
