I give the marriage of twiddledumb and twiddledumber, if indeed it gets past this stage, six months. I wish them well, of course.

My sentiments exactly. No doubt “conservatives” will celebrate this union, but the end result will be one last insult from a fundamentally non-conservative family. Drunken fornication and out-of-wedlock pregnancy weren’t enough; a divorce is needed to obtain the hat trick.

I think the lesson to be learned here is obvious. If you are a celebrity having relationship problems with the opportunistic gold-digger you’ve hooked up with, it’s best to avoid talking on the phone.

Mel obviously has serious problems. But Oksana has pretty much ensured she’ll never land another A-Lister with this move. This may have been the case anyway; she is getting older and perhaps feels she can’t compete with the 24 year-olds anymore. Despite all her efforts, she has not succeeded in becoming famous in her own right. This seems like a desperate, last ditch attempt to achieve that. Maybe she’ll get a reality show out of it.

Gibson’s language was coarse, but it was a private conversation, and I’ll condemn him when the William Morris Agency expels all the black rap “artists” who also use the word “nigger” in their pathological rants, or Charlie Sheen, who also used the word in a profanity-laced phone tirade directed at his ex-wife. As James Edwards argues, Gibson is in the cross hairs of Hollywood Jewry due solely because of his film “The Passion of the Christ”. They’ve passionately hated him ever since.

The alchemists dream – turning the base into the precious.

It’s a wonder that anyone should have seen Gibson as anything but the folly of celebrity as ‘authority’ or ‘exemplar’. It’s not that I mind heroes, authorities, or exemplars, it’s just that I prefer the methodology of the Catholic Church in all things beatific and saintly – wait ‘til they’re dead and vetted.

I can remember thinking after the movie “The Passion” that something like this was bound to happen. I didn’t have any real evidence but, just an awful gut feeling.

I must be a genius. I’ve been predicting Gibson’s meltdown for years. Or maybe I’m not a genius, just a guy who’s seen drunks meltdown for many years. It never occurred to me that Mel’s politics could, should or would save him from his fate.

Until we were rescued by Monica Lewinsky, all us Navy employees were subjected to mandatory day-long North Korean style “sex harrassment seminars” because of the behavior of inebriated pilots in a Las Vegas hotel. (the same drunks also felt up MEN!). Now it is back to Mel.

Do some of the Foxmen of the world understand the affects of ALCOHOL on people? Why should one take drunken rant # 82 from person XX any more or less seriously than drunken rant # 447 from person YY? These people are stewed and need to sober up – nothing less and nothing more.

One must always remember that the first Liberals/Progressives were the Republicans. It was they that punished the South for slavery. It was them that insisted on integration in both the North and South; opposing independents like Booker T. Washington. It was only that Johnson did an glory style end run around and through the Republicans in Congress that made the Civil Rights Law a Democrat victory. If Nixon had won, it would have been the Republican’s crowing.
