”There is no rehab for homophobia—that was just some crap being put out by the network,” says Washington.  Well, so glad he cleared that up.  Everyone was wondering.   He just can’t see to stop talking about being fired from Grey’s Anatomy.  He continues putting his foot in his mouth. “I apologized and showed my remorse for what I said and for the pain I caused anyone. If a black man can’t get forgiveness in this country, when so many other people like Robert Downey Jr. and the governor of California get second and third chances … I think that says a lot about race and this country where we stand.”  Well, now its about race.  It’s not about his saying awful, terrible, insulting things. And he kept repeating his bad words.  It wasn’t just once.  But, I guess he forgets that.  Sometimes saying you are sorry is just not enough.  

Washington says the terrible things he said is due to an artist’s temperament. “I have a mind of my own and I do speak it when I feel it’s right. In this business that’s considered being difficult and hard to deal with. A lot of actors face this and it does hurt you with work and in the future jobs.”  Really.  I wish he would give us an example of another actor insulting his co star on set in front of everyone.
