As I said yesterday, originally, we were apparently to believe that he was sleepwalking, sleepdrinking, sleepdriving, and then sleeptalking. I wanna know if he was in his jammies....or did he "sleepchange" his clothes too?

Capitol Police are investigating the original reports. They have made inquiries at two bars close to Capitol Hill whether Kennedy was seen drinking. The watch commander on duty the night this took place has been reassigned.
Just as much will come of this as of the Cynthia McKinney incident last month; NADA!

I'd like to know where Kennedy got his meds, since any doc prescribing the Ambien and Phenergan to a patient with a history of addiction needs his/her head examined.

He must have, cuz he was dressed for the "vote" he was late to.

What's missing is that there is absolutely no mention of a passenger being (or not being) in the car...not an inkling that "no one else was injured" or the like.
My guess is that there WAS someone with him. I'm betting that's the hush, hush, not his willingness to say..."I'm going to therapy".
Would just love it if his car had a GPS system in it that tracked his movements....although by now, I'd guess it's in the Potomac.

FoxNews reports that P Kennedy was seen at 2 different bars that morning.
[As more details on that develops, PK may be in for further embarrassment, but he's a Kennedy, so he will get a pass.]

CBS Early Show was pretty much the same - I think. I only surfed over to it while looking for updated radar screens on our storms locally, but I stopped to gawk at the Patches coverage.
They did have a reporter in Pawtucket, so they had to mention the accident of 3 weeks ago. But to a man, all the Pawtucketians said this was just a mistake and he'll be back and they'll vote for him again. Only one said, he probably ought to go now, but that was the very first one - you know, the one you'll forget by the time they've talked to 15 more people who think the Kennedys are royalty.

It's this STUFF that causes Congress People to be the class of professionals people trust least. Those surveys, put COngress leaders towards the bottom of the pile.

We were later treated to file footage of father Ted Kennedy saying he was proud of Patrick . . .

I've seen several posts and threads refer to Patrick Kennedy as 'Patches'.
Why?
I don't know that much about him, so I'm wondering what the nomenclature means.

Do we have any idea approximately where he lives? I missed the first few threads on this, so if it was posted, I haven't seen it.
He said it is just a few blocks to Capitol Hill - I just wondered which neighborhood/bars he sleeppubcrawled, if any other than the Hawk and Dove.

How do you not begin to question things when people say things that contradictory?You know the answer to that question.
That is why Hillary will probably be the next President.
The old media is a protectorate and promoter of the Democrat Party........ plain and simple.
And still, most of the American people do not see the depth of the news distortions and lies.
This Kennedy event is a PERFECT example!

I thought it was interesting that he mentioned the names of 2 drugs he was taking
He could remember that he went home and took two drugs, but he couldn't remember that he was in 2 different bars previous to the crash.
Sounds like PK may be suffering from SMS - Selective Memory Syndrome.
