LOHAN, SPEARS COULD HELP PEOPLE, YET JUST PARTY ON

In the Newsmakers column last Wednesday, I read all about Lindsay 
Lohan and Britney Spears ("11 days out of rehab, Lohan arrested 
again" and "Magazine to cash in on Spears' latest meltdown"). These 
are stories that I already had seen on TV, the national news, local 
news and in magazines.

It is disgusting what these young celebrities are doing - being 
irresponsible citizens, driving under the influence with a suspended 
license and possessing cocaine plus endangering the lives of 
law-abiding citizens. They do not seem to care or learn a single 
thing about being ethical or law-abiding and are in and out of rehab.

Wiping your greasy hands on a Gucci dress? What kind of craziness is 
this? These two definitely belong in jail. Where are their parents? 
We finally stopped hearing so much about Paris Hilton; now it is Ms. 
Lohan and Ms. Spears. They are just plain drunks and addicts and love 
the publicity. They could do such wonderful things for people who 
have nothing. The two of them are a total insult to the United States.
