David Hoppe: Controversy Over Statues ‘Cause Confusion’ and ‘Distraction’ from the Issues
‘It is diverting the attention’
EXCERPT:
HOPPE: "It is a big problem, but having said that, it does not stop them from the ability to perform and move forward on some of these issues that are important. It causes confusion and distraction and it doesn’t allow you to focus your time, attention and energy on the important pieces of legislation like the budget, like the debt limit, like health care, like tax cuts and getting some growth going in this economy. It has diverted and attention and for that reason it's very bad and harmful."
