Barner gives port benefit of experience and wisdom

I have great respect for George Barner as an Olympia port commissioner. That he is dedicated to his job and not a quitter is one of the requirements for public service; more too his wisdom. His experience is evident with his full grasp of the very important issues that he knows will become real events in our near future.

A man who has his heart and mind on the job like Barner needs not to suffer any insulting blather from some younger lapdog. Young people know that wisdom and experience come with time, that some day they will be recognized. Not this opponent.
