* Michael Sneed fills us in…
Is former Gov. Rod Blagojevich actually addicted to a substance requiring a prison rehab program?
A top Blago source tells Sneed the answer is “Yes” and the substance is . . . alcohol.
“It’s not drugs,” said the source.
The backshot: “Rod can’t sleep without drinking,” the source said. “So he drinks himself into a condition to do so, and it became an addiction. Considering what he has been through for the past few years, it became a problem. He’s not addicted to sleeping pills or anything like that.”
* The result of this admission…
If the U.S. Bureau of Prisons approves and Blagojevich completes the nine-month program, he’ll knock a year off his sentence.
He’ll also be eligible to serve his last six months in a halfway house rather than federal prison.
