Is There a Jerk Rehab?

Former Congressman Mark Foley is apparently headed to rehab according to The Drudge Report.

Why do I think this is funny?

Anytime some public figure is busted big-time, and I mean a really big, huge shitstorm that they can't talk their way out of, they suddenly discover that they have a substance abuse problem (in this case, alcoholism). They conveniently retreat to "rehab" as if to say, "Hey, this is my excuse for being an asshole. I have a problem. And it's going to be fixed. I will be rehablitated."
