Joe Hallett, Nonsense, and the ODP’s Boozin’ Todd Hoffmann

Make sure to read this column by Joe Hallett- He compares an awful joke about Jesse Jackson to Megan Pappada’s reasonable concerns about The Ohio State University’s soft bigotry of lowered expectations.

Joe ends his column by writing, “You can draw your own conclusions about whether Pappada and Graham were treated fairly, but it is heartening to know that racial insensitivity will not be tolerated on either side of the partisan divide.”

OK fine- Whatever. But, will either side of the partisan divide support an Ohio Democrat staffer who was arrested for drunk driving, resisting arrest, and a hit/skip?

Or does the Ohio Democrat Party think its more harmful when their employees speak out against racial quotas than when they run away from car accidents that they caused while drinking? And what about resisting arrest- is that OK too?

Apperantly, they do. This is from The Cleveland Free Times:

Speaking of public domain, Mr. Hoffman, the Free Times discovered some online court documents your employers might have overlooked. In 2001, you got two OMVI’s (operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated), a hit/skip, and a resisting arrest charge that was pleaded down to disorderly conduct. Damn, that was one crazy summer, huh?

But the ODP apparently is less interested in dangerous actions than it is impure thoughts. After Free Times brought the arrest to the attention of the ODP, spokesman Borntrager said that Hoffman would stay. But he wouldn’t get into whether Hoffman had disclosed these little details in his interview. “What’s important is that I know about it now,” Borntrager said, adding, “This is different. And I think this is now becoming a witch hunt.”

Witch hunt? No- This is one of your employees who was driving while drunk, ran away from an accident and resisted arrest! So now Borntrager is trying to claim some sort of McCarthyism, when he just helped fire a coworker for a thought crime?

It is time for the Ohio Democrat Party to fire Todd Hoffmann.
