Newt is kind of a marginal personality to begin with. Of course he will get the lunatic endorsements.
Gary Busey Endorses Newt!!

I'm going to go out on a limb and say Obama isn't sweating this celebrity non-endorsement.
Motorcycle accident and brain damage
On December 4, 1988, Busey was severely injured in a motorcycle accident in which he was not wearing a helmet. His skull was fractured, and doctors feared he suffered permanent brain damage.
At the recommendation of Dr. Drew Pinsky, Busey was seen by psychiatrist Dr. Charles Sophy. Sophy suspected that Busey's brain injury has had a greater effect on him than realized. He described it as essentially weakening his mental "filters" and causing him to speak and act impulsively. Sophy recommended Busey take a medication called Depakote (valproic acid), to which Busey agreed.
Legal issues
In May 1995, Busey was arrested for cocaine possession after being hospitalized for an overdose of cocaine and GHB.
On August 20, 1997, Busey was accused of pushing a stewardess who bumped him on a flight to Las Vegas. Upon the flight's landing, he was questioned by police, but no charges were filed.
On January 25, 1999, Busey was arrested after a fight with his wife. He was released on bail.
On December 2, 2001, Busey was again arrested for spousal abuse after his ex-wife Tiani Warden called authorities, complaining he left her bruised. Busey was released on $50,000 bail.
On September 7, 2004, Busey's landlord filed a lawsuit to evict him because Busey had refused to pay his rent for about three months.
On Sept 23, 2004, Busey was arrested for showing up late to a spousal support court hearing. His lawyer bailed him out two-and-a-half hours later.
