Re: Inslee, Murray recommend taking action to make breaching Snake River dams a 'viable option'

No, I don't usually read links or posted articles simply because those that post them typically only post those that reinforce their point of view. I would rather read others' opinions and thoughts, not regurgitated, biased talking points offered up by paid, hack journalists.

Re: Inslee, Murray recommend taking action to make breaching Snake River dams a 'viable option'

Political grandstanding by Inslee and Murray before the mid-terms. Makes for a nice BIG headline to appeal to the tower dwelling, uninformed inhabitants in Seattle. Both Inslee and Murray know the issue has been studied to death and the economics of removing the dams is not feasible. But, it does ...

Re: Sheriff Candidates

It's really not about Biden. It's about people that cry when a person whose political leanings they don't care for says or does something and then ignores the same behavior from a person whose political leanings they do agree with. Simple.
