A post a couple of weeks ago led from the antics of the Bush twins in Argentina to the antics of Britney Spears, Paris Hilton, and Lindsay Lohan in the United States. We’ve now come full circle as reporting on the antics of Lindsay Lohan now involves three of the top contenders for the 2008 Democratic nomination.
TMZ has a rather bizarre story on Lindsay Lohan appealing to Al Gore, Hillary Clinton, and finally Barack Obama for help in fighting the media and cleaning up her image. All three declined, leading TMZ to accuse Obama of wimping out: “Barack, we thought you weren’t afraid to confront the tough issues!”
Of course if they read Liberal Values they might offer Lindsay a bit of advice from yesterday’s Quote of the Day. That new line of underwear from Victoria’s Secret could do wonders for the reputations of those who have been going out in public without any.
Who is Lindsey Lohan?
Sad to say, even I know who Lindsey Lohan is. :-\
She is one of the “Three Disgraces” that make up the bulk of what passes for celebrity gossip these days. The other two are Paris Hilton and Britney Spears. Go to Gallery of the Absurd if you want a quick, cartoon gander of what all the fuss is about.
The difference is that, while the celebrity of Paris Hilton and Britney Spears greatly exceeds their talents, Lindsay Lohan does have some acting ability. Unfortuantely she may destroying what potential she has for a real acting career with her antics (unless Al Gore comes to her rescue).
It might even raise Al’s positives if he were to intervene and have that conversation with Lindsay. I think if he could steer her in the right direction, a grateful nation would herald his accomplishment and he’d be a shoe-in for 2008.

I feel so woefully out of touch.
I certainly know who Paris Hilton is because of the TV show she’s in with her BFF, Nicole Richie, but I’ve never heard of Lindsey Lohan.
Christopher,
No, no, no woe is you! Consider yourself fortunate to be so out of touch. A year ago I asked a friend, “Who is Lindsay Lohan and why do I know about her?” Believe me, you’re lucky, really, to be missing this trainwreck. At this point, I think half the county is ready to volunteer for intervention duty with the Three Graces. If only to keep teen porn off the gossip pages. Ah for the good old days of an old-fashioned “Brad hearts Angie not Jen” scandal. *rolls eyes*
Major typo above, I mean the Three DISgraces.
All I know is she is that freckle faced girl who was in Parent Trap years ago with Dennis Quaid. And I thought she was a good little actor in that. My daughter loved that movie. I don’t know what has happened to her since–she looks nothing the same.
