[nabs-l] To Beth: Accuracy on drug use and stuff for PAtterson

[Carrie Gilmer]

Dear Beth,
It is my understanding that pretty much the day after he became Governor,
Patterson held a press conference to beat the vetting to the punch and
admitted to drug use and infidelity by both he and his wife in  their
marriage. Just FYI. So in this sense he showed that blind people are
definitely human and capable of all normal things...smile.

I agree with Hannah.  That skit was just wrong, especially when
Paterson says, "I'm a blind man who loves cocaine."  Excuse me, but
not all blind people are drug users.  I'm not, thank God.  And neither
is Paterson, I think.
