So Mel Gibson got drunk, got caught driving, and made an ass of himself.
Stuff like this makes me feel sort of sorry for the legions of decent, principled Christians out there. The selfishness and hypocrisy of a loud, public few of their number unfairly tarnish the name of their faith. Every time a TV preacher, Bible-totin' member of Congress, or bombastic movie star gets exposed as a just-as-unholy-as-the-rest-of-us hypocrite, I feel a little sad for the honest people they have embarrassed. I know the frustration I feel every time someone who claims to speak for a group that I belong to says or does something stupid.
As for Gibson, you know, the anti-semitic stuff doesn't come as a huge surprise to me. But, really - "sugar tits"? Who says "sugar tits"?
