Cruise Thinks Celebrity Psychiatrists Are Going To Kill 6 Million Jews

Earlier this month, Dr. Drew Pinsky of Celebrity Rehab made some moronic observations in Playboy about Tom Cruise. Basically, he claimed that Cruise’s engagement with Scientology was "a function of a very deep emptiness and suggests serious neglect in childhood – maybe some abuse but mostly neglect." 

Since Cruise is not quite d-list, I’ll assume he is not an actual patient of Dr. Drew.  But even if he were, what about psychiatrist-patient confidentiality?  I would be so steamed if my psychiatrist blabbed to Playboy about my various fixations which are too boring to get into here.    

Anyway, Cruise’s rep fired back:  "The last time we heard garbage like this was from [Nazi propagandist] Joseph Goebbels." 

Easy, Tom Cruise’s rep, you just went from zero to Nazi in under sixty seconds.  Look, none of us like Dr. Drew (anyone who puts Brigit Nielsen in front of a camera lens is unspeakably cruel – to all involved... especially us out here in TV Land), but we must be careful with the Nazi comparisons.  The Nazis were... well... here's a 900-page Pulitzer Prize-winning book that will sort of clear up the inaccuracy of that comparison, and I’m just going to have Amazon send you a copy, okay, Tom Cruise?   Read it this weekend.  Believe me.  The Nazis:  Way worse than Dr. Drew. 

And today, Drew apologizes, through his rep, claiming that he “meant no harm”.   How blithe.  I am now going to neglect him like Tom Cruise’s parents.
