Madison TV stations WISC and WKOW, tired of waiting for the likes of The Capital Times, Wisconsin State Journal, the Madison.com-affiliated WMTV-TV/DT, and Milwaukee Journal Sentinel to end their embargoes of any bad news for Jim “Craps” Doyle (WEAC/Potawatomi-For Sale), finally reported this evening that Gus Doyle, eldest son of Jim, was pulled over early Sunday morning on suspicion of driving under the influence. Gus, who was driving a car not registered to him without a valid driver’s license, also pulled a Goldschlager, refusing to submit to a blood alcohol test.
Allow me to make myself clear; at age 30, Gus is his own man. Unlike Supreme Solar Allah, his criminality wasn’t designed to help out his parent. At least at this point, the elder Doyle almost certainly had no knowledge that Gus would pull this. Therefore, you can’t hold the sins of the son against the father. WKOW is now reporting that Gus had his license suspended July 2005, and the car was registered to Wisconsin First Lady Jessica Doyle. Therefore, it is now reasonable to assume that Craps knew that and indeed sanctioned the fact that Gus was continuing to drive without a license. I still won’t hold the DUI portion of the story against Craps though.
However, you don’t suppose that if the adult child of a prominent state Pubbie had done what Gus had, that the state’s presstitutes wouldn’t be tripping over themselves to not only break the bad news, but do everything in their power to link the parent to this.
