Kramer was on David Letterman tonight via satellite with Jerry Seinfeld.

Kramer pretty much blamed his tirade on the racial atmosphere in society, and on the treatment of blacks during hurricane katrina and on "wars between us and other countries."

What a load o' crap.

Uh, you and I must've seen two different David Letterman shows tonight. Richards (Kramer) didn't blame it on those things at all, he took full responsibility for his rage. His reference to the things you mentioned was a concern that his outburst would incite further racism toward blacks and the withdrawing of help for the blacks affected by Katrina.

He was obviously very genuinely sorry. I don't know how anyone couldn't have seen that. I hope that this is a wake up call for him for dealing with his anger in general, as his tirade was certainly over the top. And it seems, from his response on Letterman, that it was.

Yeah, I have to agree that you are wrong. The remarkably inarticulate Richards had not a clue as to how to go about explaining himself. In his own guttural way, he took responsibility upon himself and explained he had "personal" work to do in order to understand where his fit came from.
The man seemed genuinely mystified but I take it that that is a natural state for him.
