Past Due, Day 6, Tuesday- Disgusting

From the Daily Astorian:

Astoria mayor arrested for DUII after accident
This is the third time Van Dusen has been charged with drunken driving
Astoria Mayor Willis Van Dusen was arrested Monday night and charged with driving under the influence of intoxicants.
...
This is the third time Van Dusen, 53, has been charged with drunken driving. The first time was in Umatilla County Nov. 13, 1989, after his car was observed swerving on its way into Pendleton on Interstate 84. The case was dismissed and he was sent to diversion May 23, 1990. He completed diversion from that arrest in 1991.

I think you know how I feel about drunk drivers. What in the hell is wrong with people?

I mean, come on, he is the freakin' mayor. Yes, this is a tiny town on the coast, but how about some personal responsibility? Or accountability?

He’s up for re-election. Sadly, I doubt this will hurt his campaign at all.

Total costs: $2,465

Well, at least he can't vote for himself.

I know, for anyone with a sense of right and wrong, or any amount of common sense, this country can just make ya nuts.
