Rep. Vito "Vino" Fossella (Rethug-NY) had a bit of a run in with Alexandria, VA, police on May 1. Seems Rep. Fossella was stopped for DUI (his blood alcohol level was twice the legal limit) and running a red light. Fossella, who has a wife and 3 kids, left a DC bar and drove over to Alexandria, where he was either a) going to visit his sick daughter, or b) going to visit "friends", depending on which story he was telling police. The rest of the unseemly story is here, including which "friend" picked him up at the police station early the next morning. There must be something in the DNA of these Rethug pols (a hypocrisy gene, perhaps?) that will ultimately manifest itself. Sad for his innocent family.
