Pop Tarts: Lindsay Lohan's Dad Slams Obama Over Reported Dis

LOS ANGELES -

Lindsay Lohan's efforts to stump for Barack Obama were reportedly thrown back in her face by the Democratic candidate's campaign ... and her father is none too happy about it.

According to the Chicago Sun-Times, LiLo wanted to promote Obama but was turned away by his camp due to her wild ways. Now daddy Michael Lohan is biting back.

"For Barack Obama to condemn my daughter for past indiscretions when he admitted to the exact same himself is indicative of what kind of president he would be," Michael Lohan told Pop Tarts via e-mail on Wednesday night.

"His visions of a positive future for this country should be representative of a positive future for people as well. It is looking beyond the difficult times and letting go of the past," Michael said. "Obviously, Obama can do this for himself and not others, when in fact a good president should have hope for all."

Michael and his famous daughter have had a rocky relationship in recent weeks, but he had nothing but nice words for his little one in his e-mail.

"Lindsay is gifted - she has a wonderful heart and she can and will affect millions of people in a very positive way. She is here to stay," he said. "Obama might have eight years, and then he will be giving lectures. Who knows, maybe Lindsay will give him a part in one of her movies."

On Tuesday night, Michael attended the Somaly Mam Foundation's "New Dreams" benefit soiree in Los Angeles, which fights the $12 billion-a-year sex trafficking industry. He told Pop Tarts that he's looking for a star to take him on in the boxing ring to raise more money for numerous charities, with Perez Hilton being his top pick to punch.

Pop Tarts also spotted a very pregnant Ashlee Simpson sneaking into the swanky bash, although it seems her sneaking caused extra attention. Apparently, Mrs. Pete Wentz refused to be photographed and wouldn't even visit the outdoor area until all media were cleared. We hear the red carpet was even closed down when Ash arrived so that she could be dropped off by her limo right at the entrance without being snapped.

I read this earlier today and for a second, I thought "hey he's got a point. Obama did drugs when he was younger, shouldn't he understand lindsay." And then, I remembered what a tool Lohan is and had to agree with the Obama camp on this one.
