Jesse Jackson used to be considered a great man and a great civil rights leader. He was considered MLK's protégé, he was the first African-American candidate to run a credible campaign for the Democratic nomination, he helped free hostages, he fought for social justice... And yet, somehow, with the United States credibly on the cusp of elected its first African-American president — a ceiling that Jackson himself put some cracks in — it's been a tough year for him. Today's news is that as a supporter of Barack Obama — not an adviser — he told the World Policy Forum that Obama's election would reduce the clout of the "Zionists who have controlled American policy for decades." The fuck? More »

Michael Lohan sure has a knack for joining forces with others who are also more than willing to put their children in the spotlight. Lohan's alleged love child Ashley and her mother Kristi Kaufman were interviewed on Entertainment Tonight yesterday, in which the two talked about how much Ashley looks like Lindsay — which she really doesn't — and how much she really wants to meet her half-siblings. The pair also said that it's time for Michael to own up to his responsibility and make good on the promises he's made to Ashley and her mother...like helping to make Ashley a star. (Seriously, these people said this.) What's super incriminating though, is all the jail mail that Michael sent to Ashley while he was locked up, signing each letter "Love, Daddy." Clip above. More »
