Apparently it doesn’t faze Supervisor Rex Bohn to betray his utter ignorance of government. In the article, “Closed … Again,” he is quoted responding to Sheriff William Honsal’s statement that many businesses have to close again. Sounding like a sixth grader learning civics, Bohn asks, “Does the governor really have the power to do this?”

Yup, Rex, our governor really does have that authority. In case you forgot, the position he holds is the highest elected role in the state. Remind me, how old are you? Ten?

I’d like to think our legislators were at least minimally informed on how the government functions. Dream on.
