Don't forget good looks, career success, a big family, and religion, but to be fair they do work for others.
I wonder every time this happens to a movie star, rock star or ballplayer, why, if you have millions of dollars, can't you have yourself chauffered in a limo when you get drunk?
I am saddened by this. I always thought that Gibson was one of the good things about Hollywierd.
Those are despicable comments he uttered, even "under the influence" although .012 isn't that much. 2 1/2 beers or so.
Saddened is an appropriate response. Gloating over it and rolling in the carcase like a dog is not.
Precisely. This isn't passing the smell test.
So why are the majority of American Jews so steenkin' liberal?
Think Babs Streisand.
Why do they do this?
Nah............ he could just start a few outdoor camps like Paul Newman sponsors to get unfortunate kids outdoors.
My 2 cents. I never subscribed to the cult of Gibson -- I thought the obsession with dismemberment, impaling and over-the-top gore in "Braveheart" was the sign of a sick mind. When I heard the details of "The Passion" and its brutality I just laughed. Still haven't seen it.
Next up, the Mayan epic "Apocalypto", guaranteed to have more hearts ripped out, impalements on spears, etc. -- God knows what other horrors he can think up -- than any other movie in history.
His moronic analysis of Bush further cemented the deal for me, and now this.
And I'm who HATES Hollywood and their lefty propaganda machine -- I wasn't upset that there was a maverick who could challenge their hegemony, too bad it was this dope.
LOL! Very nice!!
I agree with Lady Jag in a previous thread. Ole Mel needs an old fashion spanking to show him the error of his ways. Anti-semitism is wrong. One of the biblical principles is sparring the rod spoils the child.
Because their "Religion" of Liberalism is much more important to them than their Jewish religion. It's that simple, and that sad ...
There is one exception in mainstream Libs in the public eye -- Alan Dershowitz, a talking head, liberal lawyer constantly in the media. He is very liberal on everything, except ... he does support Israel's right to exist and defend itself. What a concept (foreign to the rest of the lefties)!
"He is an anti-semite like his father, as I suspected, and I voiced that suspician here."
On the other hand, he may have simply been intoxicated and
mouthed angers of anger and outrage. You'll have to prove to me that he's antisemitic beyond intoxicated ranting. And I'll bet you can't do it. Folks who say "I told you so" usually can't prove what they told us so.
I am not bothering Mel nor do I have any way to bother Mel. But I will comment on what he said and did. And I will not pray for him. I can only pray for a finite number of people and things, and someone who trashes my family, both my forbears who died because of people like him and my precious children, goes to the end of any prayer list I could ever conceive of.
Actually, to some degree, we all are.
Booze doesn't make you say things you don't believe, it frees your inhibitions so that you say things you DO believe, but otherwise suppress.
Well, he obviously said it. I was just in denial.
Needless to say, he put on a good aire.
How sad.
I've made that point 10 times on this thread. I just saw on the FOX news scroll that he has apologized for his anti-semetic comments...so he addressed it head on. Still doesn't mean anything. What I don't understand is this...he's stopped for driving too fast, asked out of his car...WHY BRING UP THE SUBJECT OF JEWS???? Obviously he was spinning about it in his head, but what precipitated it would be interesting. Maybe he was kicking back a few beers with a secret Hollywood anti-Jew group!!! LOL!!!
