Comments on Caucus, Schmaucus--Britney's in the HOSPITAL!

I hate racists.

/everything I said before all of the comments were deleted.

Apparently you are a racist hater. SLOG says so.

I wasn't aware that Britney Spears was a race. I guess she does have some accomplishment.

Britneycide would be the final glittering nail in the coffin of the Bush Era. Perhaps she can keep it waiting til early November.

You can hear the excitement in the voices of the people reporting it.

HAAA HAAAA BRITNEY IS ON A GOURNEY HAAAA HAAAA LOOK EVERYONE HAAA HAAA

After last night’s ruckus, I can easily imagine her being fatally shot in a McDonald’s parking lot by a man in a police helicopter.

Not while tasering is still in vogue.

Isn't it interesting how the worst parents often cling to their children the most fiercely?

You don't need to stand around and watch her get sucked into the same pathetic public death-trap as Anna Nichole.

Walk away. If you can. ;)

I guess she is well along the path to overdose and/or porn.

sad.

I wonder who will play her in the Lifetime movie.

"I wonder who will play her in the Lifetime movie."

Ummm, maybe her sister, after she's spit out her first kid?

Or is that too easy?

@11; that's a fantastic question to ponder! How about Hannah Montana for the 17yr old Brit-Brit and Lindsey Lohan for the 26 yr old version (assuming shes still with us)?

Please stop reporting on Brittney, cause it makes her illness worse.

Seriously.

Anyone ever studied how many Disney kids grew up all messed up? It's something like 80 percent, isn't it? Think of the kids and don't buy Disney!

I admired her for rebelling against the system that created her. I guess it's just the lack of education and/or all the enablers around her. I wish it would serve as a warning about valuing looks and the emptiness of this trash society, but she'll just be condemned for being weak.

I'm really not a fan of this form of schadenfreude. It's dehumainizing and a stupid waste of time. I think it's pathetic that people find it entertaining.

i posted schadenfreude in before the comments were eliminated

I promise to go "green" when the media honestly commits to "Spearlessness". She is not news - people dying in Iraq is news - a black man becoming president is news. An overpaid ex-teeny-bopper and an ill-suited mother with poor taste in men is not news. Sadly, she seems to be the norm, and journalists sip at her well because they're too lazy and unmotivated to act otherwise.

@16, I will cede and give you the point. It seemed to good to be true that someone didn't have it in there already.

@17, agreed. 7:30 this morning, GMA - man falls 41 stories and survives, Today - woman creates false story so daughter can meet Hannah Montana, CBS This Morning - how to meet your New Year's resolution to lose weight. There's a reason the American public is apathetic, why would GE want you to hear bad news about Iraq or Afghanistan? Just keeping the funding coming and contemplate whether surviving that fall was miracle and nothing to do with physics.

Right on @ 15

Having dealt with addictions in my own family, it's really heartbreaking to see this...but maybe it's the wake-up call she needs. You want to be a Janis Joplin or a Marilyn Monroe--or even, god forbid, an Anna Nicole--go for it. But remember, dead is forever.
