First Patches and now Kerry ... it appears that Ambien has replaced Cutty Sark as the drug of choice for the Kennedy Klan.

It's DUI whether Ambien or alcohol.

"It's DUI whether Ambien or alcohol."

It's a Kennedy. Everything has already been swept way under the rug.
She will not get in ANY trouble over this.
Her uncle killed a girl and got completely away with it.

Not if she can convince one juror (or a Rat DA) that her Ambien prescription was incorrectly labeled as being vitamin pills.

“It’s DUI whether Ambien or alcohol. “

I dunno. I almost burnt down my house whilst somnambulating on Ambien. LEO friends tell me about pulling people over who were under the influence of that crap. They had no clue where they were, or what they were doing. I guess it’s still DUI, but perhaps with extenuating circumstances. Need to talk to her doc, for one thing.

When I was a little kid, I was a sleepwalker. Outgrew it. Ambien brought it right back. There were a lot of things happening around the house that I couldn’t figure out,,, plus weight gain. I was sleep-eating on Ambien. That’s very common. When I figured out what was happening, my doc didn’t believe me. He does now that all the negative effects have been exposed. If you ever, in your life, somnambulated, tell your doc, and don’t take Ambien.

Thank God I never “sleep drove”! Or did I? I have no way of knowing.

Imagine being named after Kerry and Kennedy.

No wonder she’s a pill popper.

If I was a woman in the Kennedy Klan, I’d spend my life zonked on Ambien too.

Haha! She made sure she mentioned to the officer the fact that she “might have” mistaken her thyroid medication with Ambien.

I’ve been around a couple of people who used Ambien, as prescribed, for sleep.

Both of them said stuff when under it that was quite out of character and odd and didn’t remember it the next morning. It is, or can be, really psycho active.

One of them, when they talked nuts, I’d asked “did you take your Ambien?” Always, “yes.” Eventually I got them to stop it and they sleep well without it now.

I take Ambien almost every night and I have never had anything weird happen to me.

Oh sure, there was that one time, when all of those 20 year old girls showed up in my hot tub, but I am still convinced that it was nothing more than a coincidence.... besides, I was probably asleep.

Great day alive! I take Ambien at night to sleep, but it does nothing to me, not even a little drowsiness. The pharmacist says druggies love it. I just don’t see it.

LOL! I created the graphic so long ago, Teddy wasn't even sick. The Kennedy's age like fine milk.
