Mel Gibson out-Moores Michael

"I didn't need to see his film ["Fahrenheit 911"] to ask the question, is, what the hell are we doing in Iraq, you know? Because I just don't understand it. No one has bothered to explain to me in a reasonable manner that I can understand and accept why we're there or why we went there, why we're still there."

-- Mel Gibson, at the People's Choice awards, after "The Passion" won best drama and "Fahrenheit 911" won best picture
