There is no secret that Lindsay Lohan is a train wreck right now, with people speculating that she is so out of control she will die. So whats a parent to do? Well, Michael Lohan wants daughter Lindsay to clean up her act so badly that he did what any concerned normal parent would do: held a press conference to demand that she go to rehab, worrying she’ll become another DJ AM or Brittany Murphy if she doesn’t stop partying so hard.

Michael told reporters Lindsay is “not ok” and that the people enabling her to do drugs and alcohol need to “get the hell out of the way.” He said he’s prepared to fly to Los Angeles and ask her in person to go to rehab, saying Lindsay will either go to rehab voluntarily or he and several professionals will ensure it will happen involuntarily — her choice.

“Lindsay is not okay. I think we’ve all seen that and we know that. I’ve tried every possible way to reach out to my daughter; no one can turn their backs on it anymore. It’s a lot worse than people can imagine,” Lohan added. “Lindsay needs help now. Sometimes we don’t know when we hit rock bottom… but it is all about admitting the truth to ourselves and the people around us. Life is tough; I don’t want it to be short for her.”

Think that sounds a little crazy? Keep reading, it only gets better. Shortly after that statement, the inevitable happened: Michael Lohan exploded. A wily reporter read him a statement issued by Lindsay’s mom Dina Lohan, saying that Michael was using Lindsays’ problem as a diversion from his own deadbeat ways and is a year behind in child support payments. This sent Michael into a crazy two-minute rant in which he threatened Dina’s lawyer, claimed he’d paid child support “off the books,” and spewed accusations against Dina’s family that involved everything from crack-smoking to 9/11.

Lindsay has earned herself a reputation as a Hollywood crazed blow junkie in recent years thanks to a string of boozy nights out, arrests for drug possession and driving violations and a stint in rehab. Her recent tumble into a cactus bed after a night out in Los Angeles and the mysterious white dust billowing from her designer shoes last week prompting speculation that she had spilled cocaine on herself surely isn’t helping the stars public persona. So naturally the answer is to make an arse of yourself is the answer to saving your daughter’s life…or just prove you are six different kinds of dumb.
