WASHINGTON - Rep. Patrick Kennedy will enter rehab for addiction to prescription pain medication Friday evening after a highly publicized car crash near the Capitol.

Fat Pill-Popper!
Oh, wait. That's only when a CONSERVATIVE is caught abusing medications.
My bad. Carry on!
You don't need rehab for Ambien.
You can bet he won't be raped by the jackals like Rush was.
Aww, c'mon! The Kennedys have a rough life. When they aren't crashing cars and airplanes or skiing into trees, they're raping the babysitter or slapping some security guard. An extraordinarily high percentage of them are shot at.
I'd stack Zacarias Moussaoui's childhood up against a Kennedy's anyday. He has my sympathy and his addiction to mood-altering chemicals is totally understandable.
WASHINGTON -U.S. Rep. Patrick Kennedy insisted yesterday that he had consumed “no alcohol” before he slammed his Mustang convertible into a concrete barrier near his office, but a hostess at a popular Capitol Hill watering hole told the Herald she saw him drinking in the hours before the crash.
“He was drinking a little bit,” said the woman, who works at the Hawk & Dove and would not give her name.
Leaving his office late last night, Kennedy refused to say whether he’d been to the Hawk & Dove the night before.
Earlier in the evening, Kennedy issued a statement through his office blaming the accident and strange behavior surrounding it on prescription drugs.
Time to subpoena his medical records.
The yellow character looks more like Doonesbury's "Mister Butts", the cigarette lobbyist, to me.
Boy does this dolt have a great head of hair. That must be what got him elected. It sure ain't his brains or non-accomplishments
he's a self admitted addict with mental problems and i do believe under the law... he can no longer own a firearm.
Nope! He isn't yellow. It has to be SPONGE BOB AND PATRICK.
I think it is a real hoot that that PINK feller's name is Patrick
Kennedy Crashes Car Near Capitol
Rep. Patrick Kennedy (D-R.I.) crashed his car near the U.S. Capitol, and a police official said he appeared intoxicated. Kennedy said he was rushing to cast what he hoped would be a decisive vote on a matter of great importance.
Kennedy issued a statement after a volley of news reports stirred interest in the crash. "It is alleged that I was involved in a traffic accident at First and C Street SE near the U.S. Capitol," Kennedy said in his statement. "It has not been conclusively determined whether I was in the vehicle much
less driving it. There is no evidence that I consumed alcohol prior to the incident. I'm working with my lawyers to find the truth."
Kennedy's father, Senator Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.) asserted that his son was the target of a rightwing witch hunt. "The same administration that is torturing prisoners of war has set its sights on my son," Kennedy complained. "When
police brought him home he had panties on his head and a dog collar around his neck. This is the Bush MO. I am more determined than ever to see this bastard impeached."
A letter written by a Capitol Police officer Greg Baird to Acting Chief Christopher McGaffin said Kennedy appeared to be staggering when he left the vehicle after the 3 a.m. crash. "Representative Kennedy said he was late for a vote," Baird said. "He kept saying he had to vote for Katharine. But the Capitol was dark and no meetings were in session."
Speculation is that it was Katharine McPhee that the young Kennedy was mumbling about. Ms. McPhee is a contestant on the "American Idol" television show.
Kennedy spent time at a drug rehabilitation clinic before he went to Providence College. He has been open about his mental health issues, including the revelation that he has been diagnosed with "moonbat" disorder.

Reminds me of that line in Alcoholic Anonymous' Big Book, Chapter 5: "They are naturally incapable of grasping and developing a manner of living which demands rigorous honesty."
Hideous, hideous, hideous! I must gouge my eyes out now.
ROFLMAO!!!
Trust, but verify. I want him drug tested often.
Great novel, by the way!
I hope he hires a cab while he's here....
That being the case, give him some credit. He chose wisely when opting to career himself as a Democratic representative.
