Michael Richards Is A Very Sorry Racist

Second only to the macabre spectacle of seeing a celebrity lose his shit in high style is watching him apologize for it from way down low. I've now rewound and reviewed Michael Richards' simpering and dithering mea culpa on Letterman more times than I watched him counter-heckle out the playbook of Jim Crow. Jerry Seinfeld might have better helped his friend and former cast-mate by getting him into therapy before allowing him to expound, on prime time television, on everything from the "black-white conflict" that has to be "confronted," to the psychic ravages of Hurricane Katrina. (Who knew Mother Nature offered such convenient synecdoches for the American race divide?)

Kramer made hapless stream-of-consciousness into a minor art; Michael Richards brought it back down to the level of "healing" and "closure" and — though he might now have troubling booking the show — Oprah-ish apologetics.

The TMZ reel was creepy. This is creepier.
