Druid: I’ll Keep Beating Dead Horse

At least half the letters to the editors in the Coeur d’Alene Press involved writers coming to the defense of Brent Regan. In fact, at least one of the letter writers declared that Obama had earned the “scary” title. Not exactly, in my opinion. Obama’s a Democrat, the people writing in Regan’s defense are Republican. Given the nature of extreme politics locally, the GOP are simply projecting “scary” onto the President just because. The commenters at Huckleberries online wanted an end to Regan constantly getting a public spanking. Sure, that can always happen. On the other hand, the long knives can be drawn on the Kootenai County Human Rights Task Force for even daring to demand that Regan behave like a civilized human being. So, as long as the letter writers insist on keeping Regan in the news. Then as far as I am concerned, he can continue to take a public spanking/Arch Druid. More here.

Question: When does a controversy officially end?
