Here Come Da Drunks: #11

I don't know if it's some kind of GOP law or what but staggering numbers of GOP Cocksuckers get loaded and go looking to get their hands on a steering wheel.

And it's not just an example of having a little too much at dinner or a party, or anything like that. Some of these bozos are habitual offenders, hypocrites or simply dangerous idiots.

Let's check out Type I, the habitual offender. We'll start small. How about:

GOP Cocksucker #11
CHRIS HEALY
REPUBLICAN STATE CHAIR FOR THE STATE OF CONNECTICUT

Healy was down at the University of South Carolina attending a debate between Republican candidates when he got picked up by university police, who rapidly determined Healy was hammered, which he admitted 29 days later to the press and said he was an alcoholic in front of a gathering of Knights of Columbus in Wallingford, CT.

"I'm disappointed, but everybody knows someone who has a drinking problem. Chris has done a great job as a chairman, let's give him a second chance," said Ralph Capenera, a member of the Connecticut Republican State Central Committee representing Rocky Hill.

I'd agree. I know people who have problems with The Sauce. I have absolutely nothing against giving a guy a second chance.

Trouble is, this was not a second chance. this was a THIRD chance. Healy had been arrested in March 2002 in Connecticut, when he received a suspended sentence and an 18-month probation term.

What happened to Healy? Well, as far as politics goes, he's still the state chairman.
