Mr. Sims Goes to Washington

It has recently been announced that our very own Ron Sims, long-serving King County Executive, has been tapped by the Obama administration to fill a deputy position in the Department of Housing and Urban Development. If confirmed, we here in the Puget Sound will be losing a strong, progressive voice, a supporter of equal rights and an advocate of much-needed infrastructure improvements. But I suppose Obama's White House is a good place for him to go. Goodbye, Mr. Sims, and thank you for your service to our humble County of King.

Oh, and here's hoping we don't all find out HE hasn't paid his income taxes, either... heh...
