Subject: RE: BS: The Passion of Mel Gibson...
I also never suggested that his lawyer would tell him not to mention the DUI. Lawyers know when to admit to facts (like breathalyzer tests, and actual legal charges being filed), and when to bluster and obfuscate. That's why the statement so delicately tip-toes around admissions of what he actually said and did during the process of being stopped, searched and breathalyzed, and being booked.

He just said he doesn't believe anything he said while inebriated, in hopes that will possibly prevent more charges from being filed against him.

Had he just shut the fuck up, and accepted the DUI like a man, he wouldn't be in the hot water he finds himself in.

Let us not forget, he is currently working with Disney on a new film, and with ABC TV--most ironically the ABC gig--which is about a Holocaust survivor.

Can you say "project cancellations" Mr. Rogers?
