I think the difference between Rove and Kennedy is that people actually give a flip what Rove does/says.

Did anyone see the photo that AOL/ABC had up yesterday? Didn't look at all like any of the other photos I saw... very presidential photo shopped pr picture... unlike every time they show a photo of the President or Vice Prez, he has a stupid look on his face.

Yeah, sorry about that ;-)
Of course, the question here is whether Kennedy's courage was of the liquid sort.

I thought it was interesting that he mentioned the names of 2 drugs he was taking,(neither a painkiller) and tried to blame his situation on them, and then said he was addicted to painkillers.
Why didn't he mention the name of the painkillers he's addicted to?
And how many of the R.I. voters knew he was an addict who had mental illness?

What, no mention of the fact that he very cleary stated that he had nothing to drink yet can't remember even getting up?
How do you not begin to question things when people say things that contradictory?
To: nuconvert
Excellent point. In fact, I will go revise my NewsBusters report accordingly.

Between this and the Cynthia McKinney episode, do you think there might be a morale problem in the Capitol Police forces??????

They should have said "reentering rehab for the second time in six months" as some reports have Patches in rehab at Christmastime. And unlike those other "millions" of fellow sufferers, Patches has the wherewithal for first class treatment.

I would like to know the name of the arresting officer who wished to test him, since he seemed willing to DO HIS JOB. I would also like the supervisor who tried to sweep this under the rug, because he was bought and paid for, or at least expected a favor in return for this little service of his. I think the press ought to covert eh supervisor and see how many other people he has done this for.
By the way, I also wish there really is a Santa Clause...

As I said yesterday, originally, we were apparently to believe that he was sleepwalking, sleepdrinking, sleepdriving, and then sleeptalking. None of which was his fault, of course.

Now he'll be in sleeptherapy until this blows over...
Anyone for a sleeprecall petition?

I believe what we have here is a "Culture of ......?" Need help here folks. What's the right word to throw in here.

Rush Limbaugh does not go to work drunk and/or high and write the laws by which we, the people, must live. Laws do not apply if your last name is Kennedy. Rush was put through legal and public hell for several years. Patrick Kennedy is heroic for going to rehab (again and again).
