BEVERLY HILLS (CBS) Actress Amanda Bynes is asking for a little legal help from the Commander-in-Chief.
The 26-year-old actress pleaded not guilty Wednesday to a misdemeanor charge of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs stemming from an April 6 collision in which her BMW allegedly struck a sheriffs patrol car in West Hollywood.
Bynes attorney entered the plea on her behalf because she was not required to appear in Beverly Hills Superior Court, and a July 18 pretrial hearing was set.
But Bynes did ask President Barack Obama on Tuesday to intervene on her behalf on Twitter.
Hey @BarackObama, I dont drink, said Bynes in a Tweet to the Obama campaign. Please fire the cop who arrested me. I also dont hit and run. The end.
The DUI charge includes the allegation that Bynes refused a peace officers request to submit to a chemical test.
Bynes was taken into custody about 3 a.m. April 6 after the black BMW she was driving struck a sheriffs patrol car at the intersection of Robertson and Santa Monica boulevards, sheriffs Lt. William Nash said.
The patrol car was stopped while northbound on Robertson Boulevard, preparing to turn right onto Santa Monica Boulevard, when Bynes allegedly attempted to pass to the right, according to Nash.
She was subsequently arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol, the lieutenant said, and released later that morning.
I want a pony. And 0bama better get me one. (or two)
you know the rules
pitchers please
“Don’t you know who I am? I’m a Hollywood actress! I’m a celebrity!”
When you can’t get a job in Hollywood get your name in the paper. Any way you can.
This person is a good example of how Hollyweird is full to the brim with morons.
Very Nice, But she has always been an Air Head.
Sadly millions of people actually believe obama has the authority to fire local cops. And I’m starting to wonder myself.

Unless this is the type you meant

Even more sadly, many, including Obama, seem to think there are no limits to what a POTUS can and cannot do just by fiat.
This Beverly Hills — they don’t care WHO you are (same as the Sheriffs, CHP and Judges in Malibu and Santa Monica).
She's just lucky she didn't have her dog in the car with her.
Seriously, when was the last good sidearm pitcher?
Sadly Obama would probably try and do this if this actress was a Wealthy “A lister” and could help him fundraise or if she was the “right color”.
Here ya go
That link is squirrely.
Remember - “The policeman acted stupidly..” ??
Now, who was it that said that?? It’s right on the tip of my tongue..
/s
Obama didn’t have the authority to fire the president of General Motors, but he did so.
I have contended for some time that if the president of GM had held a press conference and said, “Mr. President, you do not have the authority to fire me, only the stockholders can do that. So you can KMA!”, the whole Obama presidency would have been changed.
>>Now, who was it that said that?? Its right on the tip of my tongue..

Just have a beer, it’ll all come back...
LOL - Sorry dearie.
You aren’t black, queer, an illegal immigrant, or Mexican.
Obama Hussein has nothing for you
Sadly, her warped sense of privilege and proximity to the WH is representative of Obama’s Hollywood friends and fundraisers.
Wasn’t she one of those “young Hollywood” actors that just paid to have breakfast with Obama?
Seems to me that there might be a good case for influence peddling here, or perhaps attempt to bribe a public official.
I do not think that is her
That one is a lot better.
But she is still stuck on stupid.
A total, empty-headed, grinning-for-the-cameras idiot.
Just another “ meat puppet”....
This idiotic incident says it all about 0bama and his relationship with elitist performers.
Brutal, but 100% accurate, K.
Young, blonde, dumb. close enough
I think she was one of the idiots who paid big $ to have breakfast w/ 0bummer, so we’ll see if he takes any action and whether that constitutes ‘influence peddling’, a crime. If he interferes, like he did in that other “stupid police” (his words) case, it would be a PR disaster. He won’t. He’s screwed-up so badly lately, that he/libs are now *re-arranging deck chairs on the Titanic*. (He’d do it thru a throwaway surrogate, anyway.)

It’s only a misdemeanor? That can’t be right.
No, but earlier in the week, she (LL) tried to pull a Jayne Mansfield, or since she’s from LI, a Harry Chapin. Or maybe a James Dean, because she was in a Porsche...
I’m wrong; she wasn’t in that group:
Maybe in another paid-for, moron-cluster?
Young, blonde, dumb and drunk. close enough
I fixed it for you.
“charge of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs stemming from an April 6 collision in which her BMW allegedly struck a sheriffs patrol car ....”
When driving drunk, it’s best to avoid hitting cop cars.
He fired thousands and thousands of car dealership owners, and millions of GM bond owners.
This womans mistake is that she asked for only one policeman to be fired, not the entire department. One policement is too sympathetic a figure.
Walter Johnson.
And to think she starred in a movie where they had a character named “George” dressed as a Boy Scout and was about as smart as a box of rocks. Hmmm..
never heard of her... but i hope she loses her license like anybody else
In any case if she was serious in this request she is a total moron. But these are the people he hobnobs with at the same time as he says he is committed to the “middle class.” Ha ha.
Good God, is that last one a picture of a sidearm throw? Or is he just barehand-catching a grounder?
Sorry, honey. There are 150 million other people in front of you in line for free stuff from Dick Obama. And 12% of them are black. What you are supposed to do is cut in front of them and say, “Don’t you know who I am?”
You're right. But in a PC society FEAR is the WHOLE POINT of the various exercises of Political Correctness, rather than the claimed point of ‘equality’ or ‘fairness’.
Those exercise have been going on for two generations, leaving the ‘leaders’ in our society well trained. Any dismissal of PC will come from the “ignorant rabble” of this Nation NOT any sort of official ‘leadership’. Hence the Tea Party.
The middle class has Obama’s number...
Brainless skank.
