The Raw Story reports: Kennedy to check in to clinic over addiction

Not that Kennedy! His son Patrick. Last night in a possible drunken haze or possibly while sleep-driving under the influence of Ambien, (I don't know which is scarier) Patrick Kennedy (D-RI) crashed his car into a barricade on Capitol hill and was given a very (*Ahem*) soft treatment by the Cap Hill Police. This has been fueling up a mighty wind on the right side of the blogosphere.

(You can get the profanity-laced info on that here.)

Alas, I would be remiss if I was not equal opportunity in my blasting of law-breaking-members-of-congress. Congressman Kennedy has behaved atrociously and needs some help. He is apparently getting it. Good luck with that Patrick!
