Video: Ohio Rep's DUI on Dash Cam
Posted by Vince Grzegorek on Thu, Jul 7, 2011 at 9:40 AM

You'll remember that Mr. Family Values conservative Ohio state rep Bob Mecklenborg recently had a little run-in with the law in Indiana: he was arrested for a DUI, happened to be carting around a woman who was not his wife and likely was a stripper, and had Viagra in his system.

Now, there's video of his field sobriety test and arrest from the fine police in Indiana. If you guessed that Rep. Mecklenborg would be nervous, talkative, uncooperative, combative, silly, and insistent on denial and playing dumb during his arrest, you'd be absolutely correct. Our favorite part is near the end when Mecklenborg asks the officer no less than 10 times what happens if he's drunk, then tries to say, "But in Ohio..." only to be shot down by the trooper, who says, "I don't care about Ohio. This is Indiana."

It truly is an entertaining 18 minutes. Enjoy.

Mecklenborg refused a chemical test, and then failed three field sobriety tests. After a blood test, he was charged with drunken driving. The 59-year-old married father of three also tested positive for Viagra.

Mecklenborg was not alone that evening. His passenger was a 26-year-old woman who is neither his wife nor one of his children.

"Last Tuesday, Ohio Rep. Robert Mecklenborg -- a self-described "Catholic boy from the west side of Cincinnati" -- stood on the House floor to champion the most radical anti-abortion legislation in the country.

"We marvel, don't we?" he said, before voting for the "heartbeat" bill. "We marvel at the march of the penguins as they go to propagate their species under very, very difficult odds and conditions. We marvel at the leaping salmon as they return to their ancestral homes."

He also marveled over the mating habits of loggerhead turtles.

You're not alone if you don't quite see the parallel of wildlife to women's lives.

5. I noticed that he pulls

into the parking lot of a motel and I think before the trooper hits his lights and siren.

"Officer, I may be drunk and horny but I'm staying at a Holiday Inn Express"

6. God, what a WUSS!

7. He's also the dumb ass that wrote the voter ID bill

for Ohio...now he wouldn't be able to vote, since Ind. took his license. I wonder if he even cares that this could happen to many others and they too wouldn't be able to vote. He likely thinks they'd all be Dems...


I really think they will find that a lot of the repubs (especially tea types) won't have licenses or any type of ID, since so many of them are back-woods and don't want to be "in the system".
