Idiot for the day

Jonathan Drew has an Associated Press article about yet another Hollywood idiot:

Oscar-winning actress Reese Witherspoon (photo, center left) was arrested on a disorderly conduct charge after a state trooper said she wouldn't stay in the car while her husband was given a field sobriety test in Atlanta.
Witherspoon was released from jail after the arrest and was in New York City on Sunday night for the premiere of her new film Mud. She posed for cameras on the red carpet (photo) but did not stop to talk to reporters.
The trooper noticed the car driven by her husband wasn't staying in its lane, so a traffic stop was initiated. Her husband, James Toth, had droopy eyelids, watery, bloodshot eyes, and his breath smelled strongly of alcohol, according to the report. Toth told the trooper he'd had a drink, which Witherspoon said was consumed at a restaurant two hours before the traffic stop, the trooper says.
Before the field sobriety test began, the 37-year-old Witherspoon got out of the car, was told to get back in and obeyed, the report said. After the Walk the Line star got out a second time, the trooper said he warned her that she would be arrested if she left the car again.
As the test continued, "Witherspoon began to hang out the window and say that she did not believe that I was a real police officer. I told Witherspoon to sit on her butt and be quiet," Trooper First Class J. Pyland said.
Toth, 42, was then placed under arrest. He was charged with driving under the influence and failure to maintain the lane. At that point, the report says, Witherspoon got out and asked the trooper what was going on. After being told to return to the car, she "stated that she was a `US Citizen' and that she was allowed to `stand on American ground,", the report states.
The trooper then began to arrest Witherspoon. The report says Witherspoon was resistant at firs,t but was calmed down by her husband. "Do you know my name?" Witherspoon is quoted as asking the trooper. She also said: "You're about to find out who I am" and "You're about to be on national news," according to the report.
Toth and Witherspoon were then taken to jail.
A message left at the office of Witherspoon's publicist, Meredith O'Sullivan Wasson, wasn't immediately returned.
News of the arrest broke shortly before Witherspoon arrived on the Mud red carpet. "I can't say anything, because I don't know," said director Jeff Nichols (photo, at left). "The first guy on the press line to say something was the first time I heard about it, so I gotta go figure it out."
Matthew McConaughey (photo, center right), who plays the lead role in Mud and is represented by Toth, said "I'm not going to comment on that because it's too fresh."
