The Story Continues to Change

The story changes to the "I need help defense"... Kind of looses it luster after trying the "it was only a couple of pills" defense -- doesn't it?

Rep. Kennedy returning to rehab

WASHINGTON - Rep. Patrick J. Kennedy said Friday that he was seeking treatment for addiction to prescription medicines after he crashed his car into a traffic barrier on Capitol Hill, in the latest crisis for one of America's storied political families.

Kennedy, a six-term Democratic congressman from Rhode Island, said he had entered rehabilitation at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn.

The congressman said he did not remember any details of the accident, which occurred shortly before 3 a.m. on Thursday. But he said, "I do know enough to know that I need help."

It is interesting to note that the link in the previous story now takes you to a "rehab story" -- hmm, MSM assisting a Kennedy, who would have thought it?
