An Ohio man who argued with his grown son over a messy bedroom said he overreacted when he called 911. Andrew Mizsak called authorities Thursday after his 28-year-old son -- who's a school board member in the Cleveland suburb of Bedford -- threw a plate of food across the kitchen table and made a fist at him when told to clean his room.
The son, also named Andrew, lives in a room in his parents' basement.
The father declined to press charges and told police he doesn't want to ruin his son's political career.
The son, who also works as a political consultant, said he's lucky to be living in the house rent free. He also promises to keep his room clean.

LOL! Political career? Well, he sounds like he should have been a guest at the White House Correspondents dinner!

being a school's board member definitely makes him a democrat. by the way,how can he help fix and clean the school's mess if he can't even clean up the mess in his bedroom? gotta be kidding me.

Now we know how candidates for the ballot are raised anymore...by spineless parents! He wants a political career so he can sponge off taxpayer monies when he's done sponging off his parents! (The most insidious and silent degree of public welfare...right, put the focus on illegals when it's really guys like him who are putting their hands in our pockets for outrageous annual incomes for the rest of their lives, long after they've put in their two to four years of "service".

Forget about the damn political crap. He is 28 years old. Get your own place to live!!! If I was his dad, he would have been out of my house a long time ago.
