'One of these stories is a lie.'
'Only one?'

Only one a day.

Not one word of his story makes sense. I want to know what he was wearing when all of this took place. I heard he was wearing a jacket and tie. I don't know but if I had taken a prescription drug ,to help me sleep, I think I'd be in my jammies headed to bed.
He's using the prescription drug ploy because he feels it will garner much more sympathy than booze. Rush's addiction was to pain meds for a bad back but Patches wants us to believe that he's addicted to anti-nausea drugs and Ambien. Oh, come on!

I thought I read that he was married...at one time...adultry was the charge....

Can't be adultery-----that's part of the pre-nup all Kennedy brides sign.

I write Historical fiction (In fact). Apparently, so does Patrick. Except my story sounds more reasonable and I won't change it tomorrow and the next day etc. to suit Greta" so what's the sense in calling her. :-)

[trashcanbred]

Wow...I know about only four of these. Looks like I have a little weekend research project to do now. Thanks...

[surrey]

I think it was probably big brother Joe.He tried to have his marriage annulled and the wife went ballisitc. Wrote a book.

I am quite sure Patches has never been married.

[scrabblehack]

Hmmm....maybe so...although the better strategy would have been to STFU as someone else pointed out.

Bingo.

It's always amazed me- the Kennedys are the very embodiment of everything that liberals claim to hate.

U.S. Rep. Patrick J. Kennedy was with a woman at his Capitol Hill home Wednesday night before he smashed his Mustang convertible into a barricade near a House office building, according to a published report.

[Ann Archy]

Look....anyone of us would be depressed also if Ted, the Killer, Kennedy was our father.

[pjsbro]

He is STFUing...but he conveniently 'leaked' this story to the Providence Journal (don't know this paper but I assume it is 'Kennedy-friendly') before he left for the Mayo clinic where he'll be quarrantined from the media and further questions.

[Liz]

ROTFL------I guess Patty likes his women, ahem, exotic?

Quick! Think up some talking points. Uh, uh, I've got it!. He was merely counseling a troubled young woman. Yeah, that'll fool the rubes...

(But where have I heard that before?)

[johnny7]

He belongs in a mental institution... along with rest of his scum-bag family.

[JustaDumbBlonde]

Darn, as I scrolled by quickly, I thought that was Brad Pitt!

[Raycpa]

If I remember correctly, it was gastroenteritis.

Which can be caused by too much drinking.

[JustaDumbBlonde]

Okay.

[Raycpa]

Is it possible he is on super secret probation for a drinking charge and admiting alcohol use might raise problems?

[Riley]

Capitol police officers stopped Kennedy after he hit the barricade and drove him home without administering field sobriety tests.

""Do we operate under a system of equal justice under law? Or is there one system for the average citizen and another for the high and mighty?"
-Senator Ted Kennedy, 1973

[scrabblehack]

I guess I don't quite see the gamesmanship....I thought when the cops didn't give him the breathilyzer that he would get off the hook completely...
