Maryland Del. Don Dwyer (R-Pasadena) doesn’t know when to leave well enough alone.
In August, he admitted he had been drinking before his powerboat slammed into another craft, causing a crash that left him with a broken left foot, puncture wounds in his neck, and other injuries. The accident also wounded a 5-year-old girl, who suffered a skull fracture.
Now, with the Generally Assembly starting up again, he sat down with the Maryland Gazette to explain exactly why he drinks so much.
Kach and Costa, of Deale, were the only two House Republicans to vote for the bill. It passed the House by two votes in February. “I had no time to do anything,” Dwyer said. “Had I known earlier, I could have taken some action.”
It was petitioned to the November ballot and passed by 52 percent of voters state wide. Voters in Dwyer’s district, however, rejected it.
“That betrayal really affected me,” he said. “I was physically ill. You pour your heart into an issue like that and it’s devastating.”
Somebody clearly hasn’t hit rock bottom yet.

Not that his claim is believable by anyone over 10 years of age, but just think: If marriage equality did actually drive this one poor man to drink (poor baby), imagine what the LACK of equality has done to literally hundreds of thousands of us!

It’d have been better for society if his drink drove him and his car into a frozen river.

This has got to be the stupidest human being ever. How does this idiot even remember to breathe, much less get elected to public office?

I get it, his wife left him to marry a woman.

Another Republican trying to blame us for his down fall.
