Thank You, Rehab

Missing Mayor Robert Levy has shown up back at home after leaving a clinic for treatment of substance abuse and mental health issues, his lawyer said Tuesday.

The usual pattern prevails, screw up and go to rehab. Then you are a victim instead of a perpetrator. It all falls under the strategy of damage control so hopefully you won't be held accountable.

San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom did it, although I can't imagine what you could have to apologize for in that modern day Sodom.

Patrick Kennedy, continuing a fine family tradition, did it. Again, why the Kennedy's would have to apologize for doing what comes naturally to them is surprising.

Then, there was Mark Foley who used it too, after being caught in cybersex with teenagers.

Celebrities and politicians love rehab, it's "the devil made me do it" of our time. It used to be you found Jesus and some, like Michael Vick, still try that route. Now, most find rehab, the requirements are so much easier and one doesn't have to repent. After all, you did nothing wrong.
