There has to be a dead prostitute or something here. Addiction? Really? If these types DON’T have a serious (exploitable) vice, they never trust each other! Its just how their hustle works.

Well, seems like “impulse control” is another. Hallmark of liberalism being a mental disorder.

There are some in the public eye who have driven me to distraction with talking about their recovery (Beck comes to mind) because they do NOT speak for me or you, or AA/NA as a whole and often do more harm than good.

It can. I try to relate little bits of my story here and there but mostly to stress a spiritual principle to someone who seems to need it. I have (seemingly -- I am out of the Results Business) helped a lot of "Earth People" this way, and it's my motivation: How can I best serve this person?

Haven't heard a lot of Beck talking about this, but if his story is short, and he has a clear motivation to serve -- and, of course, if he does not break anonymity of others! -- then I might not be too upset. You remember what they say at the meetings: I can say I was here, but I cannot say you were.

Urbanites generally don’t got to rehab unless there is a far worse fate that awaits them.

Five weeks is plenty. 30 days inpatient, then get the heck in front of the camera. All objections on my side officially withdrawn. ;)

As Paul Harvey would say; “Now you know the rest of the story.” Or maybe about as much of it that we can right now.

In my search for clues last night, I cam across a story that his wife made a quote and never mentioned him. Her only concern was for the two kids and who was going to support them.

Be careful. Reporters are notorious for leaving out tons.

Mood disorder. I was wondering about that.

Is it that they can’t handle fame, and wealth...or is it just a regular work schedule that does them in?

I hope we don't start a “Pray for Jesse Jr. thread” I have no sympathy for this piece of human debri.

Well, this should ensure his re-election for the rest of his life.

Oh, wait. That was already a sure thing the day he was born. Or before.

Too bad Jesse didn’t have 50 sons. He could run one for Senator in each state.

IIRC , he’s been MIA since the beginning of June . How long does it take to get your “ head clear “ to release an honest statement . Heck , his family could have done that .

The AA and NA in me screams foul, somehow. <<

as it should...but u must remember....(a basketball analogy)
Most people/players never foul out...they adjust their game or sit out...

My FRiend...glad you are doing well.

I’m not sure on the anonymity concept for public figures. If they can drag Rush Limbaugh’s laundry into the street is Jackson exempt?

Screw him; he is an elected representative of his constituents, who he expects to abide by the law and if they didn’t he would have them put in prison. Throw the drunk druggie in the can and let him dry out there. Put him in Sheriff Joe Arpio’s tents and let him wear pink skivvies.
