Drudge: MEL SAYS SORRY TO THE JEWS

The Drudge Report ^ | August 1, 2006 | Mel Gibson

[RexBeach]

Nice try, Mel. You publicist wrote one helluva piece.

[freepertoo]

Okay, now I'm gonna cry. That takes a very big person.

[Anti-Bubba182]

OK Mel, scoot your bare bum over broken glass while saying...I Suck...I Suck..., then we'll talk money!

[timsbella]

Let's see if his actions match his words. That will be the real litmus test.

[seanmerc]

God bless you, Mel! I'm praying for you.

[RasterMaster]

Leftist losers in Hollywierd will still hate you, Mel.

[So Cal Rocket]

I want to apologize specifically to everyone in the Jewish community for the vitriolic and harmful words that I said

Note to people in the public eye. This is the proper way to state an apology. I'm so sick of non-apology apologies that say "I'm sorry if anyone was offended by...".

[mcg2000]

wow....

[Armedanddangerous]

I've always kind of thought that when you get loaded and spout off at the mouth, your deepest thoughts tend to come out.

Things you really believe, but don't say when sober, because you know it's just not right.

[sinkspur]

This is much better. In fact, he is on his way to redemption.

George Wallace did it. Mel Gibson can do it.

[timsbella]

An apology is a start, but let's get down to brass tacks. What would it take?

A large donation to MDA (Jewish red cross)?

Apology to Bush and support of the US stance in the middle east?

Other thoughts?

[wideawake]

If he follows these words with deeds it will be a positive thing for all concerned.

The story of Larry Trapp, who didn't just say horrible things but actually did horrible things, might be enlightening for some of Gibson's critics.

[sinkspur]

I am in the process of understanding where those vicious words came from during that drunken display,

They came from your daddy. You're going to have to deal with your daddy, Mel.

He did lie to you, after all.

[seanmerc]

How about we start with unconditional forgiveness?

[pageonetoo]

Things you really believe, but don't say when sober, because you know it's just not right.

There sure must be a lot of drunks running around this world!

John 3:16- God loves the person, not the sin!

[thulldud]

In vino veritas.

[Puppage]

I must assume personal responsibility for my words and apologize directly to those who have been hurt and offended by those words

My father always told me that you're more of a man when you can admit that you're wrong.

[AppyPappy]

Jews only accept apologies from liberals like Jesse Jackson.

Sorry, Mel.

[Antoninus]

Let he who has never said something colossally stupid in public cast the first stone.
