Kennedy uses the "Ambien defence"
Insider wonders if Congressman Patrick Kennedy isn't, subconsciously, seeking a way out of politics with his latest run-in with the law after wrecking his car at 2:45 a.m. in the nation's capital?
He swears he wasn't drinking – even though a hostess at a local bar says she saw the chip off Sen. Ted Kennedy's old block hoisting a few just before he crashed into a barricade on Capitol Hill.
His insists instead that he had taken two prescription drugs – the "bizzaro" sleep aid Ambien and an anti-nausea drug.
Kennedy last went into rehab just five months ago.
P.S.
As a side note observation on America (a country and people Insider really likes, actually) - the country with "the best justice money can buy". Guess what the cops did?
The Capitol Police did not arrest Kennedy.
The Capitol Police did not put him in jail.
The Capitol Police did not even give him a citation for driving while intoxicated or reckless driving.
Instead, the Capitol Police gave Kennedy a free ride home.

Kennedy is a congressman from RI not a Senator. His father Ted is a Senator from MA.
Thanks. Now changed.
