During the presidential election Aisling and I talked several times about how we felt about celebrities endorsing certain presidential candidates. Politically, it made sense to both of us, but made us a little edgy about the idiots that would believe other idiots just because they are on television. I understood that Obama would likely win votes from including Hollywood in his campaign, and so I accepted it. Now, however, he has been elected so could you mentally challenged folk in Hollywood PLEASE Shut up?
A recent interview of the always (haha) eloquent Lindsey Lohan:

COLORED? Are you kidding me? First of all I am sick and TIRED of EVERYONE referring to Obama only on his skin color (he is half white too you racist folk). Besides the fact that I am peeved at the media, now Hollywood is making it worse, and with terms that are commonly accepted as racist. Lindsey, I never thought you were intelligent, but please, be smart enough to stop talking. You wonder why you can’t get any contracts?
I am not saying that Hollywood is made up entirely of idiots, I am sure there are several semi-intelligent people out there. I still don’t think that using your celebrity to promote your ignorance is a good idea however. How about you talk about things that matter to you while appearing on national television: shoes, money, and sex (ahem…Lindsey).
