This is in response to Dan Wilson’s Oct. 8 letter, “Boldt, council doing good job.”
First, let’s stick to facts: Rep. Liz Pike, R-Camas, led with unprecedented leadership in putting our short-line railroad on the fast track. No mincing of words there, just the facts on record. The railroad brings real jobs calculated to be in the thousands — an independent calculation at that.
Second, let’s move beyond the public display of antics. Today is National Stop Bullying Day. Stop the bullying by using words possibly meant to intimidate other voters.
I am but one vote and so is Wilson. It appears as though we may cancel each other’s vote. For those still wondering why this country and, at times, our county appear so messed up, I encourage voters to not be disillusioned or intimidated by loud words, but to listen to the candidates and review facts, not hype. We each hold a vote, whether rich or poor. Let’s move beyond the labeling and the use of emotional words.
