Minnick subsidizes gas for 350 Boise drivers

Congressional candidate Walt Minnick offered discounted gas to Boise drivers for about an hour Tuesday to highlight Rep. Bill Sali’s ties to oil and gas companies. Idaho GOP, Boise Weekly call it a stunt. Minnick: “Idahoans are being pummeled at the pump while their congressman is hobnobbing with the very people who are getting filthy rich from high gas prices.” Sali spokesman Wayne Hoffman: “Radical environmentalists like Walt Minnick are directly responsible for the environmental policies that have given us high gas prices.” Kuraitis on NewWest.net.
