Mel Kampf

I've been drunk in my life, but never Mel Gibson drunk, if you know what I mean.
We've all said things under the influence of alcohol that we regret come the daylight: "Of course I love you'' springs to mind.'' But that's a bleary-minded pragmatism at work.
It seems to me, that apart from some drunken attempt to score points with a member of the opposite sex, the inhibition-losing effects of demon rum usually get you to say what's on what's left of your mind, a 100-proof truth serum of the heart.
Booze doesn't make you say anti-Semitic things. It unlocks that ugly place where you keep it hidden in the sober hours.
Mel meant it. Maybe now he wishes he didn't, but that's something for him to work out with his God, while the rest of us wait to see if his repentence bears fruit and lasts longer than a pony keg at a frat party.

This blog was actually good -- and dead-on accurate, too. Who would have thunk it it possible? :-)
