Wisconsin GOP official resigns after drunken crash with kids in car

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2011/08/06/wisconsin-gop-official-resigns-after-drunken-crash-with-kids-in-car/

Columbia County Republican Party chair Amber Hahn resigned on Friday after drunkenly crashing a car carrying herself and her three children, according to The Wisconsin State Journal.

Hahn, 35, crashed her car Thursday night while driving drunk. No other vehicles were involved and fortunately no one was injured. Police were summoned by the car's On-Star call system.

<<<<<snip>>>>>

UPDATE: Ms. Hahn is also the GOP official who appeared on Fox News last February masquerading as an "upset Wisconsin parent" weighing in on the issue of public school teachers teaching union history in the classroom. Neither Ms. Hahn nor the hosts and producers of "Fox and Friends" felt the need to disclose that Hahn was a Republican activist and local GOP chair.



I think 'Upset Wisconsin Parent' should worry about the safety of her own kids instead of faking it on Faux News.

8. Crashed Thursday, resigned Friday
I have to give her props for doing the right thing so quickly, instead of brazening out some nonsense about how the "libruls" are just trying to make her look bad. Would that Anthony Weiner had been so.
