Jesse Jackson Jr Update

By Rob Janicki
Okay, which is it?  There have been conflicting reports on a topic we have previously reported here at CP.  Where is Jesse Jackson, Jr. and what is he really being hospitalized for?

UPDATE: Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. (D., Ill.) is being treated for a “mood disorder” at a residential treatment facility, according to a statement released by the congressman’s doctors Wednesday evening.

Jackson’s office also denied Wednesday that he is being treated for alcoholism.  [...]

Now that last statement is important and here's why.

[...]  Earlier Wednesday, Andrea Mitchell reported Jackson was being treated for alcoholism and addiction in an Arizona rehabilitation facility.
Jackson has been on a leave of absence since June 10. His office termed the absence medical and said he was being treated for “physical and emotional ailments,” in a statement last week.  [...]

With Andrea Mitrchell reporting one set of conditions and Jackson's staff reporting another set of conditions, it should be interesting when the complete and unvarnished truth comes out.  Chances are that won't be coming from Jackson or his staff.  Go to the complete article to understand the all the possible circumstances of Jackson's self hospitalization.
