Walt Minnick is a stealth Democrat

| August 13, 2008 9:00 PM

I am curious as to whether others have noticed an oddity in Idaho congressional representative candidate Walt Minnick’s TV and radio ads. Nowhere in them does Minnick confess to being a Democrat. While seeming to espouse traditional Idaho and Republican values, such as business, hunting, and gun ownership, the irony that Democrats are the mortal enemies of such values may be lost by some who view or hear the ads for his candicacy.

The only drilling Minnick evidently believes in, is the typical Democrat drilling into our wallets, under the code words “tax breaks for the middle class,” which is always followed by “more taxes everywhere we can get away with them.”

The fact that he is a member of the party of Nancy Pelosi and the whacked-out values of San Francisco and liberals in general must be kept from us to the greatest degree possible.

Walt Minnick is apparently ashamed, and rightfully ought to be, to announce he is a Democrat.

TERRY LAMB
