I keep seeing these posts and I keep expecting them to be satire!

But they ain’t!

John, I have no idea what you will do when reality is crazier than anything you could possibly put together! You may have to wait a few days for something to not be wilder than anyone’s imagination!

Maybe he’ll get his nose treated during his time off and come back with a smaller one. That’d be making good use of his time.

He must believe he is someone special and knows that under no circumstances is he to step down. It is like he knows this will blow over for him and even Nancy Pelosi doesn’t carry weight. He sure has some higher power.

A spokesman for the New York Democrat said he has left for professional treatment and will focus on 'becoming a better husband and healthier person'.

Too funny. He's going into rehab. But for what, he doesn't know. But he will come out a 'better husband' and a 'healthier person'.

The boy's on 'roids. Just saying ...

Rehab for what?

I thought his behavior was normal, natural and healthy and only crazed, right-wing, bible-thumping Christians had an issue with it.

Maybe he’ll get...

Maybe he'll get real religion while in "rehab". He'll finally convert to Islam, to match with Huma.
