Kiss the Senate goodbye Patrick. Another Kennedy implodes.

Kennedy: (1) "I didn't ask the police for any special treatment; (2)"I don't remember a thing that happened." Good example of cognitive dissonance.

Do the Kennedy's get a group rate at these Rehabs?

[RushCrush]

Where was wifey?

Would he have gotten treatment for his 'disease' (addiction) had he not gotten caught?

Did he publicize his treatment over the winter break, and if not, why not?

This clown needs to take responsibility for his actions.

Every single word of his press conference today was aimed at passing responsibility onto either the disease, the drug, a stomach ailment or some type of day-to-day stress.

They probably own the rehabs.

[NavVet]

Let's see if he get's "The Rush Treatment" from the press and the local DA.

[MJY1288]

LOL!

At the very least, they are named after them

At least he didn't blame the cement barrier.

[I see my hands]

IMHO.. What if it were Rove? What if it were you? Those are the questions.

[Anti-Bubba182]

Ted gets a group rate by himself.

[conservative in nyc]

Where was wifey?

Patrick Kennedy is single.

[MJY1288]

LOL, I should have known! :-)

Now ya think some hotshot prosecutor is gonna spend a bunch of taxpayer money looking at "Doctor Shopping" here?

Nah.... they only do that when a famous Conservatives is involved.

Not that I am excusing Rush. To tell the truth, I have never felt the same way about him since he admitted his addiction.

I hold Conservatives to higher standards.

Nobody expects good behavior from a Liberal. Hell, there entire philosophy of life is built around tearing down standards, eliminating morality, breaking things loose so nobody has to feel bad about anything.

That's why the Left is so positively gleeful about things when a Conservative gets busted.

Inside they are jeering, "See, Conservatives are just a bunch of hypocrites! They do the same things we do."

It's obviously not the case because the sheer numbers of Conservative vs. Liberal cases comes down so strongly on the Liberal side, but because Liberals have never pretended to any sort of real morality. It's almost as if they claim some special virtue by being frank about their degeneracy.

He still denies being drunk, although two bars (so far) have said he was drinking there that night.

[Anti-Bubba182]

I saw that too. The media will take the clinic explanation and let that go, but Kennedy is screwed as far as a Senate seat goes.

[wildcatf4f3]

Send him to the salvation Army

[MountainYankee]

I could tell he was fibbing ! His lips were moving !!
Gotta love those Kennedy's..

[sgtbono2002]

Probably queer.

38 years old, money to burn, a Congressman and no woman in his life?????????? We know the media would help hide it.

Whatever his sexual preferences - fact is he is a liar.

He isnt sorry for his addiction, he is sorry he got caught.

Funny he didnt even realise he had an addiction till he ran down a concrete barrier.

If he has to take a drug that causes him to lose his senses, he should not be a legislator. Will he know what he is voting for?
