Local lawmaker: 'I haven't had a drink' since McDonald's drive-thru arrest

HAMILTON - An Ohio lawmaker seeking re-election after being convicted of impaired driving says he hasn't had a drink since his early morning arrest 10 months ago.

Republican state Rep. Wes Retherford, of Hamilton, tells the Hamilton-Middletown Journal-News that he has made "drastic changes" to show that he has learned from his mistake.

"I've refocused and committed myself to my faith, my family, my job, my health," Retherford said.

Police said Retherford appeared to be passed out behind the wheel in a McDonald's drive-thru on March 12. A loaded handgun was also found in his car, according to police.

Sickening, lying, evil fucks.

The Republican party is the party of no abortions and no gay marriage.

That is their entire platform !!!

But what do the Dems stand for ???

I am so sick of hearing this question asked on MSM.
