Why didn’t he stand up to him in the pub, instead of running away like a typical Republican coward?
“Why didn’t he stand up to him in the pub, instead of running away like a typical Republican coward?”
An acting Deputy secretary in ANY administration taking the bait of a likely intoxicated loud mouth from the opposing party is not only not advisable, it’s imbecilic.

EXACTLY! With COWARDS like that, who needs a republic? MOFO COWARD ALERT!
FWIW, O’Malley is 6’5” and an avid weight lifter. He’s a big dude. And he was probably drunk. He probably made the right decision walking to another part of the bar.
Fair point.
But O’Malley’s a nobody.
Only another nobody should get in a fight with him.
Not an official.
According to the article, he didn’t leave the bar. He walked over to a different area of the Dubliner.
“Cuccinelli said he engaged in a short conversation and walked away to a separate area of the bar ...”
stupid bar talk.
Wrong answer.
Cuccinelli is a department secretary in the current administration. He conducted himself with dignity. Let O'Malley sink himself instead of dragging Cuccinelli down with him.
O'Malley is a weak, wimpy former governor and former democRAT candidate for president. He was probably drunk and behaving ugly and immaturely on his own accord. Cuccinelli didn't need to engage.
Best for the partisan media to report that O'Malley's behavior was out of line than to report that the two got into a heated argument.
Cuccinelli is the professional here and took the high road to avoid the drama. Nothing to gain by confronting him. O'Malley was already digging his hole pretty deep.
There’s little glory in slapping around a drunk mick. There’s just too many of them.
Run to Fox News? How about pulling rank? You are the head of freaking homeland security, our own gestapo.
only problem is the Mick starts it and the Republican wop gets blamed for it. Any half respectable Italian should have flashed a knife at Ophir fat Irish ass!
He did the adult thing and sidestepped lurid headlines....
