In the end, I feel sorry for her and wish her well - just as I would anyone else.
Oh please. People in my family have been battled addiction to drugs, alcohol, etc. They also didn't have a fraction of the resources available to them that Lohan has. Still...they made it through without laughing in the face of people that were trying to help. They ended up beating it. Without millions of dollars, on call doctors, or any of it.

As far as addiction in relation to talent...I think there is a connection. It's easier to remember lines and act when you're not sweating out last night's eight ball. And to be honest, if Judy hadn't captured the gay audience...she would have been dead a lot sooner. She looked and sounded like utter **** for the last several years of life, but the Marys still wanted all they could get from her.

Lohan is one dumb bitch.

This is really all there is to say. So what if she does some coke and drinks too much. Most of us have been there. The dumb part is that she drives and puts others at risk.

Then your experience should have taught you that when someone is addicted, the drug is controling them. But, whatever - you seemingly just want to hate - and who am I to keep you down

and - this is from 1969 - she hardly sounds like shiitte



Mind you - I am no huge fan of her's - but the voice is still there

Just read the car she was chasing was driven by her personal assistant's mother. The PA had just quit a few hours before. She may have been a passenger. I think there will be more to this story...like why the PA suddenly quit.

Interestingly, you just dealt publicly with a horrid and violent relationship based on substance abuse if not addiction - that seemingly would have shown you how people in that situation are controlled by the drugs, etc.

Also, what chance after chance has she been given? She got a DUI and now she has another. She was released on bail, just like anyone else likely could have done. She will go to trial and face the consequences. So, I fail to see what special treatment is she being given?

Oh, choke on it. It's not "pity". I didn't say "poor girl".

I don't know what the hell some people have against treating and talking about others like they're humans. More like... I pity people who think it's copacetic to wish people dead or call them wastes of flesh.

I have this funny feeling the PA saw the drugs and walked out after a hissy cat fight - I think the PA threatened Lohan with bad publicity or private pics when leaving and, thus, the chase.
