"Twelve years ago, I pledged to the people of Tennessee that I would serve two terms in the Senate – to serve as a true citizen legislator – and then return home".

Not quite a true citizen legislator

"At this point a return to private life will allow me to return to my professional roots as a healer and to refocus my creative energies on innovative solutions to seemingly insurmountable challenges Americans face".

Return to a private life so he can spend the money he was bribed with in peace and out of the public eye.

"There are some very disappointed comedians and scared transplant patients at this news."
