Yoink - Court Orders Britney to Hand Her Kids to K-Fed

Even OJ didn't lose custody of his children, yet somehow Britney Spears has to turn her spawn over to K-Fed.
An LA court commissioner today ordered that Spears' ex, Kevin Federline, will be granted full physical custody of their two young sons beginning Wednesday - which we believe is still Prince Spaghetti Day.
What did the commish have to look at regarding Britney's behavior over the years? Well lets see - she shaved all her hair off, she walked into two public bathrooms barefooted, she flashed several cameramen her freshly shaved intimate area, she drove with one of her kids on her lap, she slept-walked through her MTV VMA number, when told that she was going to be randomly drug and booze-tested she immediately went clubbing in Hollywood... and she married K-Fed even though his babymomma was knocked up with his 2nd child. For starters.
In a town where OJ was found not guilty, where Robert Blake was found not guilty, where Phil Spector wasn't hung, and where Nicole Richie served less than an hour in jail even though she hurtled her quarter ton vehicle the wrong way down a freeway, you really have to be a complete fuckup for educated people to decide that a cheesy white rapper wannabe is better for two children than your multi-millionaire ass.
Good news for Brit - her ringtone sales are shooting through the roof, and now she doesn't have to worry about having her manny work OT when she wants to get her ass back into Hyde.
As much as we despise/pity KFed, if anyone at FOX wants a sure-thing reality show, we would be very interested in the comedy that would be him raising those two little baby boys.
