We are all on drugs

From TalkLeft:

Seems like recently-deceased Chief Justice Rehnquist found time to knock back an unhealthy dose of pills while cracking down on drug abusers:

And for the nine years between 1972 and the end of 1981, William Rehnquist consumed great quantities of the potent sedative-hypnotic Placidyl. So great was Rehnquist's Placidyl habit, dependency, or addiction—depending on how you regard long-term drug use—that by the last quarter of 1981 he began slurring his speech in public, became tongue-tied while pronouncing long words, and sometimes had trouble finishing his thoughts.
