The Highlights: They do it so much better than I can, and they care more. Besides, I already knew the man was off his nut.

If there’s one lesson that we can all take away from the Mel Gibson incident (besides the obvious one about not chugging a bottle of Cazadores before driving home at 90 mph on a twisting, well-patrolled stretch of beachside highway, and all the stuff about not blaming a failed Breathalyzer on the microscopic Jews hiding inside it), it’s one about the importance of forgiveness in a moral and tolerant society. After a week spent personally calling each individual of Jewish extraction in the 310 area code to beg for, and eventually receive, absolution for his sins, it’s time for Gibson’s fellow Christians to finally embrace their flawed brother. And embrace him they will after reading this press release’s eloquent plea for forgiveness, in which the actor is very aptly compared to the protagonist of the iconic feel-good movie of the talkie era, It’s a Wonderful Life.
