August 29, 2010

Dear Friends,

Two things today.

First: Hearing for Jim Brannon Suit concerning the City of Coeur d’Alene Election last November.

(Remember that Jim Brannon lost by only 5 votes, and many voting irregularities have been discovered.)

What: Election Contest: Defendants motion to dismiss.

When: Tuesday, August 31st at 3:00 PM

Where: Kootenai County Courthouse; Courtroom 2

This hearing is very important. It is essential that this challenge not be dismissed and that this goes to trial. Please show up and support, not only Jim Brannon, but all those who believe in fair and honest elections. If you want a seat in the courtroom you will need to get there early.

Second: the continuing saga with wolves in Idaho. Excellent article by Rod Halvorsen of Benewah County Natural Resource Advisory Committee.

Would a rational person bring live rattlesnakes into his living room, or introduce dozens of them into his city? Wolves are no better. They may appear to be very majestic in nature, but in fact they are very deadly predators that are rapidly destroying, not only deer and elk in the west, but also even some livestock. Here is a quote from Halvorsen’s good article:

“The concerted efforts of state, county and Federal governments, stockmen’s associations and the general public in removing wolves starting in 1915 was instrumental in establishing stable and healthy game populations and a thriving livestock industry in Idaho. Such efforts must now be reintroduced and hopefully the Lolo action will be the first step in what will eventually be the eradication of wolves from Idaho. Wolves were not inadvertently, unintentionally or mistakenly eliminated from Idaho but were, rather, effectively extirpated at great cost and effort by residents, state and Federal agencies and private organizations as a response to the great damage wolves caused. The cost was worth the effort and the cost to extirpate the wolf will be considered wholly worthwhile if wolves are successfully eliminated from Idaho in the future.”

This is an old message, but still relevant.
