video: let's now take a look at "dr" phil's giant step into the realm of britney spears and her most recent manic episode:
"i was first contacted by her [britney's] family over a year ago and it maintained a running dialogue throughout the last year."after dr. phil's reported visit to britney at the cedars sinai hospital in la, he announced his decision to, well, 'dedicate' a show to britney....translation --> "We had planned to tape a
Dr. Phil Now show today, focusing not on the tabloid side of Britney's latest problems, but instead on the very serious issues surrounding this case. Clearly, it is not just Britney's family struggling to find a way to protect adult children who cannot be ordered or compelled to seek help."

today, however, the idea of that dedication seemed like a....well....poor idea....translation --> "Because the Spears situation is too intense at this time, and out of consideration to the family, I have made the decision not to move forward with the taping at this particular time."
the ultimate problem....why, oh whyyyyy are we relying on the monster that is
dr. phil to sort out the plethora of problems plaguing the spears family.....lets be real here people....who on earth would want to lie on this man's couch.
