(AP) Mel Gibson's apology for making drunken anti-Semitic remarks isn't enough to redeem him, actor-producer Rob Reiner said.
The actor also must acknowledge that "his work reflects anti-Semitism," particularly the 2004 hit movie "The Passion of the Christ," Reiner told Associated Press Radio.

Perhaps it was anti-semitic. I mean having Jesus eat Italian bread at a Passover Seder was over the top, but who is Reiner a treife JINO to judge?

"The actor also must acknowledge that "his work reflects anti-Semitism,"
The Patriot, Braveheart, We were soldiers and all the Mad Max flicks just oozed antisemitism. LOL

Rob Reiner must admit if there ever was a time that anyone cared what he said, it's a long time past.

How goes it? The sheer arogance of the guy is stunning, No? Who cares what some hack half ass, not even B rated movie actor who fashions himself a producer says? Producer? Producer of what? Trash? Any guy with a farm can do that, at least a farmers trash is useful.

He's a hollyweird darling and a political far leftist --- I see no talent in the cretin and despise his politics, but I am sure he can buy and sell me, so who's the smart one, huh?

Well, in the spirit of goodwill, shouldn't Reiner admit that his film 'North' sucked major league arse, first? :-)

Rob Reiner, what a waster of space. His work in All in Family was not "work" at all, just him playing himself.
The fact that people laughed AT him, totally escapes him.
To: Hal1950
Rob Reiner worked with Sally Struthers on All in the Family; therefore, he must admit he is Sally Struthers.
That's about as logical as what he's proposing for Mel Gibson.

Mel Gibson really stepped on his own wanger, HARD!
That said, Rob Reiner isn't fit to carry Mel Gibson's garbage cans to the curb.

I challenge Reiner and all the leftist Mel Gibson critics: why don’t you have the guts to admit it—you hate Gibson because he dared to be honest about Jesus.
In fact, Reiner cares nothing about anti-Semitism or about Gibson’s drunken, half-conscious comments about Jews.

OK--as long as Rob Reiner admits he's one of the BIGGEST a-holes that Hollywood has ever produced.
