Mel's words or his publicist's words?
Already posted.
We should get as much of an admission out of one of the Kennedys when THEY get pulled over and get combative with the arresting officer.
Where?
It sounds like Gibson has a demon to conquer. It doesn't sound like he is blaming anyone but himself. That is responsibility in action.
Slightly diff:

Indeed it is. Gibson knows that he messed up, and he isn't trying to hide anything, and he didn't show up in a neck collar, or blame his screwup on anything but his own bad behavior.
I don't approve or condone what Gibson did, but he keeps my respect for stepping up and admitting it without excuses.
He needs prayer. He'll have mine.
This is pathetic. You're supposed to hire a team of lawyers and PR flacks to deny everything, make excuses, shift blame, and denounce the cops for setting you up. Has this man learned nothing from his long contact with Democrats in Hollywood?
So now he doesn't hate Jews?
Have you seen Mel's mugshot from the arrest - He looks like a young Saddam Hussein. No kidding.
The problem is that booze tends to bring out one's true nature. The guy's id, his instinctual reflective beliefs and attitude, is a not a pretty picture, and to leash it, the guy needs to take up jogging or something in lieu of booze. That is my best advice.
From what I heard some of those "despicable" comments he made might have been anti-semetic. If that turns out to be true the MSM is going to rake him over the coals over this...only because he directed "Passion of the Christ".
Otherwise anti-semitism pretty much gets a free pass from the MSM these days
Then, there is Bill Clinton, Al Gore, Hitlery Clinton, etc.

Unfortunately for Mel the arrest is on audiotape according to TMZ.com. Mel was abusive to the officers calling a female one "sugar tits" guaranteeing they would sabotage their superior's attempts to cover this all up.
Can you reprint those anti-semetic comments here, for those of us who have not heard them?
Claim the ambien defense Mel!!!!
After the anti-Christian smear campaign conducted by some Jewish organizations, he is not wholly in the wrong. But he sure missed a chance to turn the other cheek.
I don't know if he actually did...just saw it mentioned in an ealier FR post: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1674355/posts
