Forgive me for adding yet another diary on this relatively ephemeral subject (and for conflating two of Jesus' most controversial starring vehicles) but there's a significant point that seems to be lost in the other discussions I've seen.  Naturally, Gibson's defenders won't face it, but I'm shocked at how many of his critics are missing it too.

MEL GIBSON LEARNED NOTHING FROM THE CONTROVERSY OVER "THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST"!

In a video posted on her blog, the heartless, soulless, brainless Ann Coulter wannabe Michelle Malkin "satirizes" Cindy Sheehan's symbolic hunger strike.

"Gaining Weight on the Sheehan Plan"

It should come as no surprise that many of the comments posted by her socially retarded, involuntarily celebate admirers suggest that they're sexually aroused by the sight of the Turd Reich's second-favorite pinup girl pigging out while she cruelly mocks the grieving mother of a soldier killed in combat.

Obviously, no nice person would ever suggest that it would be cosmic justice for Malkin's own children to die as soon -- and as painfully -- as possible in an immoral, illegal, unnecessary war.

But I guess I'm not a nice person.
