the kennedy's, been beating up on bottles of booze, pills, women, power...you name it, for years. they had a pretty good run in the 60's but i'd say nothing much really came of it except some idea that they are america's royalty or some crap i saw on tv...camelot?, please.<br /><br />what do the fine people of massachusetts see in these people? how many more kennedy's are there? will they ever go away?<br /><br />the latest one to make the news is going to drug rehab...anyone surprised?<br /><br />i don't get it.

Man I am sure they give some fun parties at their houses.<br /><br />I have no idea why they go into politics, everyone of them has skeletons in the closet.<br /><br />Still dont know why anyone votes for them. I think its a fashion, status symbol thing. I am cool cause I voted for Kennedy.<br /><br />ken

Rehab? I thought he only took an Ambien and a Fenegrin prescribed by his doc. Must be a lot more pill popin that wasn't reported. Oh, and since he isn't a repub. he won't step down from his position.

Re: something in the water?

I have a question for anybody who has taken Ambien. I have not. I understand that they tell you not to take them until you are actually in bed. The guy who told me this said you've got 8 minutes. Is this true?<br /><br />He also said that he and another one of our employees each took one as they were taking off on a Redeye to Buenos Aires. The plane had an issue and they had to immediately come back and land. He said they had to pour the two of them out of the plane and they were absolute disasters in the terminal for a couple of hours.<br /><br />If this is anywhere near the truth, who in their right mind would take one and then hop in a car?

Ambien frequently leaves an odor of alcohol on your breath. If you take two of them, your buddies at the station house will show up and give you a ride home too.<br /><br />I have taken Ambien and no it didn't have that kind of effect on me. I have heard though that it can have some very stange effects, similiar to sleepwalking on some. I never, ever take it when not in bed. It works OK on me.<br /><br />You are going to have to be a Kool-aid drinker to swallow this one.

I was a kid when JFK ran for president and I remember my father ranting about what a liberal he was and all of that. If you look back now he was down right conservative in most of his thinking. Wonder what happened to the rest of them?

I take a STRONG med to sleep from PTS<br /><br /> Ambien never did it for me and if you google it you will find its got a worse rap than the Narcotic sleep meds its supposed to replace<br /><br />I still say XDUT$ ANYBODY ELSE would have been cuffed and down to the station and a judge would have ordered a blood test<br /><br /><br />tommays

yep, but last I look DUI and DWI is not specific to alcohol but is driving under the influence of an intoxicating substance, doesnt matter if its prescription or not.<br /> pat shoulda gone to jail like the rest of us folk that get caught in 2 tons of a Weapon Of Mass Destruction.<br />however I am quite sure he will pay a pittance and stagger off, like the rest do.

How many generations of Kennedy's can live off the JFK/RFK aura? At least there wasnt a woman and water involved in this one.
