News Crew Happens Upon Former Sen. Tom Daschle Stuck in D.C. Snowstorm

My Fox DC: While FOX 5 was busy covering the start of the Blizzard of 2010 in D.C. on Friday night, our reporters came across a number of stranded vehicles—but one stood out from the rest. As reporter Matt Ackland and his photographer Nelson Jones were driving down Wisconsin Avenue in Upper Northwest D.C. while they were live on the air, they spotted a man trying to push his car out of the snow. When they stopped to help—live on the air—they found that it was none other than former South Dakota Senator Tom Daschle.

I’m surprised he didn’t put some tax dollars underneath the wheels for traction.

He’s probably on his way to do his taxes early this year to help make more social justice for all the little poor people he cares so much about!

Good thing you helped him. Nice car he was driving — Lexus?

Lobbying job inside the white house apparently pays pretty good — tell him to buy American next time, the creep.

Must be slow news day at Breitbart. He was coming from a lobbyist meeting no doubt.

If your Fox news people were only looking a little further fown the road you would have come upon Al Gore,
stuck in a snow drift, on his way to a man-made global warming conference. On the other hand
it is probably better not to push him out. Maybe they’ll find him next spring.

….and why did they stop to help?

ChuckyCheese1   February 6th, 2010 - 9:17 pm

john, i didn’t think he paid taxes : /

H2K   February 6th, 2010 - 9:34 pm

Was he drunk? Isn’t that where you find drunk democrats in DC?

saintpeeter   February 6th, 2010 - 10:52 pm

Democrats aren’t used to working that hard.

Chuckycheese1-

He’s one of the lucky ones who don’t have to pay. Planning ahead for his audit when dems get kicked to the curb in Nov 2010 ??

And why wasn’t he car pooling to save the planet with all this massive global warming?

Maybe he did, and made the mistress walk away in the snow in high heels so he wouldn’t get caught when he saw the FOX news truck coming?

Just saying…. he didn’t look too happy for somebody getting help!

Let Him Push   February 6th, 2010 - 11:11 pm

I agree with Love Chicago.

If it was up to me, the filthy sucker would still be pushing!

Rodney Whittaker   February 6th, 2010 - 11:36 pm

Hell, y’all just never let up on that political thing do ya?
You’re sounding like a bunch of dried-up, bitter lonely old women trading hateful gossip over a the back fence.
It must suck knowing that half the country are DemocRATs that you absolutely have no use for. Man, if only the country could see that the democRATS (lol) are all corrupt baby-killing socialist villains like Rush, Hannity, FOX and Savage portray them then they would run them down in the snow instead of helping them push their car.

Hey Rodney (11.36pm), thanks.

Never thought of running him down, I guess only a Democrap could come up with that one.

Nate   February 7th, 2010 - 12:21 am

Ha Ha – no more taxpayer funded chauffeured cars for that dirt-bag.

Daschle stuck…..kinda like the SEIU’s Obamacare…..not going anywhere if the people have any say in it….and we do.

The Marxist Rot….House of Kennedy 1962

SEIU, AFSCME, NEA, AFL-CIO, Change to Win.

Take down the Soviet unions and the country will flourish again.

editor   February 7th, 2010 - 1:59 am

It looked like Tom got out of there quick without saying thank you…

This guy is from SD?   February 7th, 2010 - 11:06 am

What the he!! is Daschle doing in D.C.? I thought we sent that a$$ packing back to SD. You would think he’d know better not to drive a car in a snowstorm. And Terry, your comment is HILARIOUS!

Rick M.   February 8th, 2010 - 10:38 am

Obama was in Washingtion because he is there to make changes to the health care plan that he is mainly responsible for writing. He has a book on it out there somewhere! It’s people like him who ought to be victims of the “Death Panels”.

Rick M.   February 8th, 2010 - 10:39 am

oops i meant Dashel not Obama… damn surgery…
