Drunken Duluth Democrat Mayor: "Don't call the police."
Duluth, MN Mayor, DEMOCRAT Herb "One More For The Road" Bergson, after crashing his car into a guard rail asked:
I wonder...I wonder...if an ordinary citizen would be treated a bit more harshly if they had said "don't call the police." Shouldn't we hold officials to a Higher Standard in cases like this?

..passersby not to call police Friday evening following a one-vehicle accident near Spooner that resulted in his citation for driving under the influence of alcohol, according to the Washburn County Sheriff's Office.
The mayor asked motorists instead to help him push his crashed car off a guard rail along U.S. Highway 53.
Bergson's blood alcohol level won't be available for at least two weeks, Trooper Anthony DeSteffano said.
