"I was drunk/stoned" is not an excuse. If anything, the drugs and alcohol just exposed what was already there, since they lowered his inhibitions and made him say what he really thinks.

He's just taking a page from Mel Gibson's playbook. Natch.

Exactly. I can guarantee that I don't go off on an antisemitic or racist rant no matter how drunk or high I am. I don't believe that drugs or alcohol change someone's personality. All it does is reduce inhibition and show you and everyone the person you always are.

Reminds me. The key to unlock of Elaine Benes' secrets (on Seinfeld) was to give her some Schnapps.

Funny I get drunk a ton and never say any of the crazy shit he did. Drunkeness is no excuse for anti-semitism.

There is an old Jewish saying, "Wine goes in, secrets go out."

I've been ridiculously drunk, and said all sorts of things. I once spent a pleasant evening wasted out of my mind and talking with some guy about the urgent need for humanity to prepare to leave planet Earth in the next twenty years. (That was, BTW, about twenty years ago.)

Oddly, reservoirs of racism don't seem to surface.

When you're drunk, you say what you think.

If you know you think things like this, maybe it's not a good idea to get so drunk.

Also, on my screen, Frank says: "A drug is not bad. A drug is a chemical compound. The problem comes in when people who take drugs treat them as a license to behave like an asshole."
