Imagine the outcry - the scathing denunciations of "arrogance", "deceitful", and "fascist" - had a Republican done that. Picture the press conferences, the hearings, the day in day out news coverage had Rick Santorum done this.
State Sen. Carole Migden, D-San Francisco, discusses the auto accident she had last week, during an interview with the Associated Press in her Capitol office in Sacramento, Calif., Thursday, May 24, 2007. Migden, whose wild ride on Interstate 80 triggered several 911 calls and concluded with a crash that injured another motorist, said Wednesday that her erratic driving may have been caused by medication she is taking for leukemia.

shades of the Open Mic in the Capitol affair..
They are above reproach,, and beyond hope.. sadly.
scarecrow
Brash(bad) behavior by definition!
“Criticism’?
BFD Dems always have an excuse and are always excused. If it were a Repub., they would have been tossed in jail and on the front of every msm print in the county. BTW, where is Ice Cube Jefferson these days? Still out and running around, I guess.
Migden used to work out at the health club I belong to in S.F. Staff members there told me of her nasty outbursts. Whenever I saw her there she looked angry and she was often very pushy with the other patrons. I’m thankful I haven’t seen her there in a long time. Migden has always been nasty and pushy. It has nothing to do with any disease.
Has she disclosed any medical records?
I don’t believe this excuse but if her medication affects her ability to drive she should not be driving.
Hell's Belles! She shouldn't be legislating!
Are face lifts required for Rat pols in the Sodom on the Bay area?
***THIS ARROGANT WITCH JUST COPPED OUT TO THE FACT THAT SHE WAS DRIVING DUI AND ENDANGERED TOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ON THAT FREEWAY!!!!!***
Absolutely! And she’s apparently been doing it for ten years. I can’t believe she admitted it.
(She must think she’s a Kennedy.)
I'd bet that they come out some time after Kerry's do.
It’s illegal to drive under the influence of any drug whether it’s a prescription or some other drug or substance. Her claim is grounds for immediate suspension of her driving license as well as charges. In fact if she’s having incidents that leave her unable to remember what happened or passing out or being disoriented whether caused by drugs or other substances or an illness it is grounds for suspension of her driving privileges. If you have diabetes and your blood sugar is out of control (low or high) and you have a problem with controlling your car you lose your driving privileges. Same applies to people who have seizure disorders. They have to prove to the DMV that they aren’t a hazard and it’s not easy. The DMV based upon her statements should immediately suspend her license until such time she proves she is safe to be driving a car as any other citizen would be required to do.
Reporters should be challenged to see if they have asked the DMV to comment on her statements and to explain why they haven’t suspended her driving privileges. We should keep the pressure up on the media to ask the question.
She did a good amount of damage to what looks like the left side of the vehicle, as well.
You’d think the CHP might have asked about that?

ICK!
Remember, when you do that to people (post pics),
it’s the first thing to stare them in the face
when they open their mailbox. LOL.
