VARIETY ^ | July 31, 2006 | Hildy

YEEHAHHHHH!!! When will that sucker die?

[stands2reason]

So when Freepers are quoted, we don't talk about it?

[Hildy]

I never said I was....

[muawiyah]

I think the words are "May the Lord take him soon".

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

Mucho Garcias!!

:-)

Yes, I know I spelled it wrong.

[Chanticleer]

Maybe not -- perhaps too obscure. I think history is interesting, I like the idea of indigenous actors and language, and I haven't seen too much on the Mayan culture. I am hopeful it will be a good film.

[muawiyah]

Wasn't that between semites though? (I'm thinking of Hillary's gopher vs. Drudge).

[stands2reason]

Why did they refer to you as Christians?

Oh yeah. I forgot, all conservatives are Christian. (/sarc)

[stands2reason]

SHE's not the embarrassment.

[Peach]

We're talking about churchillbuff.

Check out his last few posts.

That was when I was a kid at 19. Some drunk driver hit me in their big van at 45 MPH while I was stopped at a red light.

Took some time, but I got over it. :)

I learned young that we are not immortal.

[SoCar]

Good job!

BTW< I agree with you and Veronica on this issue and I am also Jewish.

The obscure issue is the biggest problem. Most people at least heard of Christ and kind of knew some of the story.

[Peach]

I meant to make that freepmail. Dang.

[Mamzelle]

Hildy the Boss has informed me that it's against the rules to refer to a poster without pinging them. I'm sure we want to obey the Big Her. She'll be along to remind you. I'm sure she wouldn't show favoritism to her own, after all.

[Guenevere]

Thank goodness you were quoted for this article and not one of his apologists making FR look like it's composed of a bunch of nutjobs.

Ya know Peach....this statement from you disappoints me very much.....but maybe I misunderstood????

Surely you're not saying those of us who don't pile on Mel.....who don't throw him under the bus.....who don't hope he suffers torment for eternity....

...who actually have pity on someone with a drinking problem....even though we're disappinted with what happened.

...are nutcases?

Is that what you're saying?

I hope not!

[Chanticleer]

True enough. I guess he's made enough money that he can risk losing some -- as long as he doesn't pull a Superman Returns with the budget.

[Hildy]

I agree with you and Veronica on this issue and I am also Jewish.

If you mean he shows himself to probably be antisemitic in his private thoughts and now public rants, I agree.
If you mean his current outrages somehow means his movie about Christ was somehow tainted because of the man, how so? I think that work stood on it's own merit.
