		<description>Thank you Gary - I hope this statement has some impact.

I need support in removing the spouses of judges off of the Idaho Judicial Supreme Court Committees. Can you imagine if you ended up in a &quot;situation&quot; that involved one of the spouses of a judge and you needed to litigate - but they are sitting on the same committees with area judges that judged their own lawsuits - not to mention they were appointed by the Supreme Court? How far do you think you would get?</description>

		<description>Stebbijo, you are a lot more valuable than you feel.  Don&#039;t underestimate the impact your comments have on others.  It&#039;s tough sometimes, but the enlightenment of public officials is a worthy goal.</description>

		<description>Imagine if you read and watch that stuff and you live here! I hestitate to be much more active than as a voter, independent blogger, and as a commenter because of the whiplash you will suffer if you do become publically involved. I have watched it happen to everyone on this site - thankfully, I am not a target, because I am not considered a threat - and I have already been &quot;ruined&quot; by the best of them. I am really just entertainment. ;-)

There are some of us who are interested in the workings of our local/state government and see that there are areas that need changed by educating the public and exposing the ugly truth - really do fear the wrath of the liars out there that will stoop to anything to ruin a person(s). Anything. Some of us do not want to go through the mockery, humiliation, defamation, and character assinations again. It was painful enough the first time. 

The Mayor and others hate credibility - hate it and they smirk at folks and stifle their laughs at people. who come before them like entertaining fodder. That last council meeting reminded me of &lt;i&gt;American Idol&lt;/i&gt;, but much worse. The citizens of this area are not entertainment for the city, or county and state government.

There are few who ever take the &quot;high ground&quot; and we see what happens to those who do. So, when I get a nugget like a phone call back from the Judicial Council or a reply from the AG&#039;s office - after I respectfully remind them at least once or twice for an answer back - I become extremely thrilled. I have worked hard just to get that far.</description>

		<description>Imagine that you want to move to Coeur d&#039;Alene. You read in a local blog that the Mayor — the &lt;em&gt;Mayor&lt;/em&gt; — refers to her own citizens as liars. Sound like the kind of nice, cozy place you want to relocate the business or family? Whether what was said is true or not, wouldn&#039;t you expect the elected public official to take the high ground?</description>

		<description>I wouldn&#039;t be all that surprised if Troy and others at the city are giving out inaccurate information just to try and discredit Steve Adams and others.

Steve Adams is a good man and an honest man. 

He&#039;s been my insurance agent since I was 16 and there&#039;s a reason I&#039;ve never gone elsewhere.

It&#039;s sad to see how the city treats anyone who questions ANYTHING and as for that other newspaper&#039;s blog -- objectivity is lacking more and more.</description>

		<description>The party line will be Adams heard wrong. 

Her Longnecked Sandiness again demonstrated her class. Class comes in many flavors, high, low an no. This was another No Class moment.</description>

		<description>It seems to me that the Mayor is doubling down on her disrespect for the public. She and LCDC seem determined to confuse the public so that they can ram unpopular decisions down the citizens throats. It is called the old &quot;rassle dazzle&quot;.</description>

		<description>Perhaps Steve&#039;s straight forward public comments to the Mayor will bring an end to the venomous actions and comments directed at citizens from both elected officials and city staff.</description>
