Another Pathetic Drunk Liberal
by Lee

For a few years now San Francisco mayor Gavin Newsome has been considered a rising star in Democratic politics.  Given the pedigree of the upper echelons of the Democrat apparatus, his recent behavior has pretty much cemented his stardom.

Mayor Gavin Newsom said Monday that he plans to seek counseling for alcohol use, following the disclosure that he had an affair with the wife of a veteran aide.

Newsom, 39, said that although “my problems with alcohol are not an excuse for my personal lapses in judgment,” he had stopped drinking and wanted professional help staying sober.

“Upon reflection with friends and family this weekend, I have come to the conclusion that I will be a better person without alcohol in my life,” Newsom said in a statement.

The revelation came less than a week after Newsom publicly apologized for his affair with Ruby Rippey-Tourk, 34, his former appointments secretary and the wife of his campaign manager.

Ted Kennedy called the mayor today to offer advice.  “Er, eh, you dumb fuck.  You should have driven off the Bay Bridge and let the whore drown”
