Tim Walz should have gotten the Rodney King Treatment
A damned teacher drunk as hell driving 96 mph in a 55 zone! Was Sammy Hagar singing his speed anthem on the tape deck at the time?
Cackles chose as her running mate one more Leftist asshat who wants to take everything from productive citizens to give to deadbeat losers and illegal border jumpers. As per usual for Leftist aspiring dictators, the rules and laws don’t apply to him. Speeding drunk is not a good look for a teacher or a governor.
I am not usually a fan of cops acting as judge, jury and punishers, but I think some LA cops instead of Nebraska state police might have come in really handy in this situation.
Kamala Harris’ freshly minted veep pick, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, was once arrested for drunk driving after he was pulled over for driving more than 40 mph above the speed limit.
Walz, 60, who was 31 at the time and working as a teacher in Alliance, Neb., was caught on police radar driving his silver Mazda 96 mph in a 55 zone just before midnight Sept. 23, 1995.
When the trooper approached his window, he detected “a strong odor of alcoholic beverage” emanating from the vehicle, court documents show.
After flunking a field sobriety test, he submitted to a breath test, which pegged his blood-alcohol level at 0.128%, well above the state’s legal limit of 0.08%.1
I guess the young ladies of Nebraska can be glad one of them did not turn out to be a 1995 version of Mary Jo Kopechne. It’s dangerous to be a pretty girl in a car with a power-mad drunk Democrat.
Let’s as Americans agree to avoid this clown in the voting booth, as all rational young women avoid him in the Minnesota bars and - probably - the halls of the Minnesota capitol building.
How on earth in a nation full to the brim with wonderful, talented people, do we get losers like this on the ballot?
WaPo is all over this story. They have the 2009 oral history tape.
