Paging Mel's Handlers!

The ant-Semitic remarks Mel Gibson made while resisting arrest for drunk driving in 2006 hurt him and I admit I wasn't thinking of them when I posted about his new movie yesterday. As a Jew, journalist Sam Ruben felt targeted by him with his "You got a dog in this fight?” remark. For sure he's testy these days: he got really sore at entertainment reporter and critic Dean Richards who was interviewing him via satellite feed. You can tell by his  body language, and the way he handles his coffee cup. You can tell by the way he calls the reporter an asshole when he knows very well the man can still hear him. All I can say is I hope he doesn’t carry a gun these days. In his new life. With that young model. As the father of seven or maybe eight. As a devout Christian/Charismatic-Catholic man.... His PR people must be tearing their hair out.  Hmmmm. Maybe next time he should try saying 'asshole' in Aramaic.[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TJ3Ss4Q8BY&feature=related]
