Amanda Bynes’ Mother Makes Emergency Trip to NYC, Tries to Convince Actress to Enter Rehab

After her first meltdown last year, Amanda Bynes was placed under a conservatorship that put in her parents care by court order. By the time it expired, Amanda’s folks apparently believed she had made enough progress that she could be trusted live independently. Oh, how wrong they were. Bynes was arrested for DUI last week, and her behavior has been growing increasingly bizarre and erratic ever since. She’s been spotted talking to herself and crashing her bike into pedestrians in Manhattan, and just yesterday, Bynes claimed to be engaged to a 19-year-old named Caleb, who her friends and family believe is a figment of her imagination. Sources say Amanda’s mother – Lynn Bynes – now recognizes the need for an intervention, and she’s reportedly headed to NYC in an effort to convince her daughter to check into a rehab facility. Unfortunately, it looks as though it may be a case of too little, too late. Amanda has been tweeting again (during her last public breakdown, her nonsensical online ramblings frequently made her a trending topic), and her posts seem to suggest that she thinks she’s doing just fine. “The only reason Lynn hasn’t hopped on a plane sooner is that even if she does fins Amanda, there is very little she can do to bring her back to Southern California,” a source tells Radar Online.  “The conservatorship ended in August and Amanda has been on her own ever since then. Lynn now realizes ending the conservatorship was a huge mistake.” Amanda’s parents can only request a renewal of the conservatorship if they are able to prove that she poses a clear threat to herself or others. If Amanda is in any way injured or causes harm to somebody else, sources say her parents will petition the court immediately. 45 Seriously OMG WTF Amanda Bynes Photos 1. Amanda Bynes is Dope Amanda Bynes thinks she is dope. The actress has posted this photo to Twitter.

Farrah Abraham Plugs Girls & Corpses Cover, Defies Description

Farrah Abraham’s latest video plugging Farrah Abraham’s latest magazine cover is enough to leave you at a loss for words. For many reasons. First and foremost, Girls & Corpses magazine is apparently a thing. Second, Farrah Abraham is posing in it. Third, she cannot say the word “corpse.” Farrah Abraham Keeks Out Highlights of the Girls & Corpses spread, as announced by her nonsensical Keek video, which you may or may not have subjected yourself to above: Farrah does not actually pose with real corpses. Just … dolls? She wears a bikini. The guy from the American Gothic? No. The magazine is celebrating the “bread casket” of America. The corpses do not look impressed by her intelligence level. She got to “play around with melons.” Like James Deen … Farrah also says she looks forward to “many more” photo shoots, and if we’re lucky, she’ll get those offers. Because this sort of things is so unforgettable.

Democrat Windbags Do as Much Damage as Irene: Alfonzo Rachel

CNN: ‘Hardcore Conservatives’ Meet in DC; Reagan ‘Most Secular’ President

CNN’s Suzanne Malveaux led Friday’s Situation Room by labeling the social conservative Value Voters Summit a “traditional showcase for hardcore conservatives .” Later in the same segment, senior political analyst Gloria Borger stated that the Tea Party movement was ” anti-health care ” and bizarrely referred to Ronald Reagan as ” the most secular president we’ve known in our lifetime .” Malveaux used her “hardcore conservatives” line as she introduced a segment on Republican Senate candidate Christine O’Donnell’s speech to the Summit. Just before this, she stated how “some are calling her [O’Donnell] the new poster girl for the Tea Party phenomenon” and later continued that she apparently “preached a new kind of gospel at the Values Voter Summit: the Tea Party’s anti-government mantra.” After playing a clip from the Republican’s speech, Malveaux turned to Borger and asked, “Give us a sense of the response. I mean, how did the crowd respond to her message?” The CNN analyst replied with her view on the Summit as a whole, including her label of the Tea Party movement: BORGER: She was clearly very well-received, as you saw, and today’s event- not only just O’Donnell, but all of the speakers, were really embracing all of those Tea Party themes that we’ve heard so much about during this campaign season already- anti-big government, anti-health care, anti-any kind of bailout .” Of course, Borger was using a liberal accusation against conservatives, that their opposition to ObamaCare translates to a more general opposition to all health care. She continued that O’Donnell used a “class warfare argument- the us versus them, which we hear a lot from Sarah Palin, and it’s about the elites don’t understand us.” Minutes later, Malveaux raised how many potential 2012 Republican presidential candidates addressed the conference, using clips from Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum as examples. She asked Borger, “What do you think is the challenge for the main Republican contenders?” This is when the analyst cited Reagan’s apparent secularism: BORGER: Well, I think- just what you heard today, they got to figure out a way to capture the enthusiasm of the Tea Party voters, without, in a general election, look like they’re captives of the Tea Party voters, and it’s going to be a very difficult thing for someone to do because the Tea Party demands you to be ideologically pure, to a certain degree . And when you run in a general election as a Republican, you don’t want to become Barry Goldwater, you know? You want to be able to win. The person I think back to is Ronald Reagan. Ronald Reagan- remember, he was able to capture Christian conservatives when he was probably the most secular president we’ve known in our lifetime , and that was because he was optimistic and open and welcoming, and I think that kind of a candidate in the Republican Party would be able to do both. Borger is a bit off-base in her analysis. She might be thinking about how Reagan wasn’t a regular church goer during his time in the White House. But as National Review’s March 22, 2004 book review of Paul Kengor’s “God and Ronald Reagan: A Spiritual Life” outlined, the former president was far from being “secular.” Reviewer S.T. Karnick noted how “prayer was central to Reagan’s life. He prayed often, both in public and in private.” Karnick also pointed out how Kengor explained “Reagan’s ‘religious truancy’ – his puzzling lack of church attendance while serving as president – by arguing that he was sincerely reluctant to distract congregations with a celebrity’s presence and large, intrusive security detail.” Moreover, both the analyst and Malveaux overlooked the current president’s “religious truancy” in office, to use Kengor’s term. Earlier in 2010, CNN used similar labels to describe CPAC, another annual mainstream conservative meeting. Analyst John Avlon stated that the conference’s “saving freedom” theme was ” a little extreme ” and ” a little far out ” during a February 19 segment . Three days later, anchor Rick Sanchez noted how Ann Coulter apparently ” exemplifies the hardline spirit of CPAC .” On other instances, the network has regular taken the time to label conservatives as somehow extreme. CNN legal analyst Lisa bloom condemned Proposition 8 in a January 12 editorial on CNN.com and labeled its supporters ” lunatic-fringe bigots .” Rick Sanchez hinted during a March 3 segment that Texas Governor Rick Perry was a racist. Less than a month ago, anchor John Roberts labeled Tea Party-backed Republican candidates ” very far to the right ” and specifically labeled Florida Republican Rick Scott as an ” ultraconservative .” All of this from a network that also claimed earlier this year that they were the only non-partisan network .

CBS Dishonestly Touts ‘Non-Partisan Watchdog’ Group’s Quest for a ‘Criminal Investigation’ of Christine O’Donnell

“There are calls for a criminal investigation of another rising GOP star,” Katie Couric teased at the top of the CBS Evening News, after citing Sarah Palin’s speaking appearance in Iowa, as she elevated a publicity gimmick from a left-wing organization staffed by veterans of Democratic congressional offices. Though O’Donnell “took the spotlight today at a conservative summit in Washington,” Couric warned: “There may be trouble ahead for her. A watchdog group intends to call Monday for a criminal investigation of what it says is her chronic abuse of campaign funds.” Reporter Nancy Cordes painted O’Donnell as a hypocrite, charging that “even as she preached a return to fiscal conservatism, O’Donnell’s own unorthodox spending habits were starting to come under heavy scrutiny,” asserting “the unemployed O’Donnell used campaign funds to pay for meals, gas, bowling trips, and personal rent, even long after the campaign had ended.” CBS then gave a platform to veteran Democratic activist Melanie Sloan, who is now advancing her liberal agenda as Executive Director of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW). She alleged O’Donnell “just stole” campaign donations. Cordes legitimized CREW by misleadingly describing the obviously liberal outfit as “the non-partisan watchdog group” which “is urging the U.S. attorney in Delaware to open a criminal investigation.” Sloan got a second soundbite to declare: “It’s not sloppiness, it’s out-and-out theft.” (On Wednesday night, without attribution for the ideological label, Cordes cited “O’Donnell’s ultra-conservative social views.”)   Just how much of a “non-partisan watchdog” is CREW? “ CREW’s Crooked Candidates 2010 ” list, one of whom is O’Donnell, now features nine Republicans and just three Democrats, which suggests they are cover for the group’s real agenda. Looking at its own “ CREW crew ” page of brief staff bios, I saw no one with any past work for a conservative cause or Republican politician, but a bunch with records of working for liberal and Democratic officials, starting with Sloan: Ms. Sloan served as Minority Counsel for the House Judiciary Committee, working on criminal justice issues for then-Ranking Member John Conyers (D-MI). Ms. Sloan also served as Counsel for the Crime Subcommittee of the House Judiciary Committee, chaired by then-Representative Charles Schumer (D-NY). There, she drafted portions of the 1994 Crime Bill, including the Violence Against Women Act. In 1993, Ms. Sloan served as Nominations Counsel to the Senate Judiciary Committee, under then-Chairman Joseph Biden (D-DE). Other staffers toiled previously for Democratic Senators Tom Harkin, Jeff Merkley, Daniel Inouye, Barbara Boxer and the late Paul Wellstone and Fritz Hollings. Another served in the office of Maryland Democratic Congressman Chris Van Hollen. Plus, one “performed strategic campaign research with the Service Employees International Union.” The “contact” name on CREW’s page proclaiming “ Tell the U.S. Attorney: Investigate Christine O’Donnell! ” is Garrett Russo. From the bio for Russo, CREW’s Communications Director: “Prior to joining CREW, Mr. Russo ran the National Press Desk for former Vice President Gore’s Alliance for Climate Protection.” That page links to a petition page that features a video clip from Thursday’s Anderson Cooper 360: “CNN is already looking into the matter. Click here, or watch the YouTube clip below, to see their report.” ( larger jpg image of that Web page showcasing CNN’s story.) The story on the Friday, September 17 CBS Evening News, transcript provided by the MRC’s Brad Wilmouth: KATIE COURIC: Now to the Tea Party’s newest star, Christine O’Donnell, who scored an upset to take the GOP Senate nomination in Delaware this week. She took the spotlight today at a conservative summit in Washington, but there may be trouble ahead for her. A watchdog group intends to call Monday for a criminal investigation of what it says is her chronic abuse of campaign funds. Here’s congressional correspondent Nancy Cordes. NANCY CORDES: Christine O’Donnell, initially shunned by the Republican establishment, was embraced by it today, granted a plum speaking role at the annual Values Voters Summit in Washington, D.C., alongside the likes of Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee. CHRISTINE O’DONNELL, DELAWARE REPUBLICAN SENATE NOMINEE: The small elite don’t get us. They call us wacky. They call us wing nuts. We call us, “We, the people.” CORDES: Delaware’s new Republican Senate nominee was at home in this crowd of social conservatives. But even as she preached a return to fiscal conservatism, O’Donnell’s own unorthodox spending habits were starting to come under heavy scrutiny. Staffers on her previous campaign for Senate and O’Donnell’s own financial filings reveal that the unemployed O’Donnell used campaign funds to pay for meals, gas, bowling trips, and personal rent, even long after the campaign had ended. MELANIE SLOAN, CITIZENS FOR RESPONSIBILITY AND ETHICS IN WASHINGTON: Well, I’ve never seen a candidate who just stole all their campaign money and used it for personal use. What it seems like here is Christine O’Donnell had no other way to support herself so she thought, okay, I’ll run for U.S. Senate. CORDES: The non-partisan watchdog group, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, is urging the U.S. attorney in Delaware to open a criminal investigation. SLOAN: It’s not sloppiness, it’s out-and-out theft. CORDES: But today O’Donnell waved off her critics. O’DONNELL: Will they attack us? Yes. Will they smear our backgrounds and distort our records? Undoubtedly. CORDES: Republican Senate campaign leaders scheduled their first face-to-face meeting with O’Donnell today, but she canceled, saying she was just too tired after her whirlwind week.

Olbermann: Christine O’Donnell ‘Lump of Dumb & Judgmental,’ Tea Partiers Pushing ‘Virulent, Uneducated Hatred’

On Friday’s Countdown show on MSNBC, during the show’s regular “Worst Person in the World” segment, host Keith Olbermann referred to Delaware Republican Senate nominee Christine O’Donnell as a “lump of dumb and judgmental” as he introduced his slam of Republican strategist Jack Burkman and a clip of him being criticized by former New York Republican Senator Al D’Amato for comments Burkman made about African immigrants on the Fox Business Channel. As he attacked Burkman, the MSNBC host smeared Tea Party activists generally as promoting “nonsensical, virulent, uneducated hatred.” Olbermann: “For the second time in three days, a hardline GOP stalwart managed to get fed up with the nonsensical, virulent, uneducated hatred pushed by one of these flip Tea Party types, and he called BS on it. The first was Karl Rove wigging out over the lump of dumb and judgmental that is Christine O’Donnell.” Below is a transcript of the relevant portion of the Friday, September 17, Countdown show on MSNBC: KEITH OLBERMANN: And our winner, Jack Burkman, a self-described Republican political strategist. This is less about him than it is about what he precipitated on Fixed News. For the second time in three days, a hardline GOP stalwart managed to get fed up with the nonsensical, virulent, uneducated hatred pushed by one of these flip Tea Party types, and he called BS on it. The first was Karl Rove wigging out over the lump of dumb and judgmental that is Christine O’Donnell. But now, it’s former New York Republican Senator Al D’Amato, no shrinking violet he, only he literally called BS on this Burkman. JACK BURKMAN, REPUBLICAN STRATEGIST, ON FBN, CLIP #1: Most of these guys working in the post office should be driving cabs, and I think we should stop importing labor from Nigeria and Ethiopia. That’s about the skill level. BURKMAN CLIP #2: That is why I allege they should be bumped down to driving cabs and we should stop importing labor to drive cabs. FORMER SENATOR AL D’AMATO (R-NY): You are a nasty racist when you bring in the race- BURKMAN: That’s crazy. D’AMATO CLIP #1: Well, I’m going to just make my observation. I have a right to do it. You brought in the fact there’s a bunch of Nigerians. D’AMATO CLIP #2: Let me just tell you, that’s a bunch of bull [BLEEP]. And you should be ashamed of yourself and have your mouth washed out. What the hell are you talking about? It’s one thing to say that they’re out of control – wait a minute, you shut up! I listened to your racist bull [BLEEP]. It’s one thing to say that they’re hiring people who are unskilled, that you can save money, that you can run it better, that it is inefficient, ineffective, and I agree to all of those things. But for you to bring in this bull [BLEEP] about, oh, a bunch of Nigerians, etc., that’s out of line. OLBERMANN: When Alfonse D’Amato, who once filibustered a bill killing off jobs in his state by singing the lyrics to South of the Border Down Mexico Way, when he is the voice of reason and introspection in the Republican party, when Al D’Amato is calling out the BS and the racists, all I can say is he’s right.
