Maybe it's just the conspiracy theorist in me, but I smell an eleventh-hour reconciliation between Jon & Kate that will kill the divorce and revive the show. The fact that Boteach used to have a show on TLC lends this whole debacle a whiff of careful orchestration. #rabbishmuleyjongosselin
Oh, lor. I'd been wondering what on earth Rabbi Boteach, who from what I'd read always seemed at least a little cool, was doing assuming the role of Gosselin's spiritual advisor, of all "clients".
Now I understand. The poor Rabbi was feeling underexposed.
He'd lost his media spotlight, vile as he paints it. And he was jonesing to get it back. #rabbishmuleyjongosselin
Wonder if this rabbi is also responsible for Jon's justification of why he was acting out:
"As an explanation for what caused him to act the way he did, Jon said, 'It’s hard for a man to stay home for two years and change diapers and make meals and deal with doctor’s appointments and all the stuff that you expect your wife to do.'"
@heymissmegs: No one should expect him, as a father, to actually be a father to his children, that's stepping on his man time. He needs that time to wear Ed Hardy shirts and buy Gucci loafers.
And besides, we all know women really like to change diapers and wipe up snot and cook. It's just the way it is, evolution and biology and stuff. #rabbishmuleyjongosselin
@Dances with Peeps: But I also know Orthodox rabbis that are still progressive, respectful of women, and advise taking responsibility for your actions.
Although to be fair, I do live in Boston and I sometimes think the powers that be check your Progressive Club membership card before they allow you in. #rabbishmuleyjongosselin
That's right! Nothing Jon Gosselin does or says is Jon Gosselin's fault. It's always Kate, or the media, or Michael Lohan, or... #rabbishmuleyjongosselin
I'd like to take a moment to apologize to all my brothers and sisters of different faiths, on behalf of the Jewish people, for Rabbi Schmucky over there. #rabbishmuleyjongosselin
You know, I'm glad that they've owned up to this right on the spot. At no point have they tried to turn Hailey's sad interview into some kind of 'she asked for it' clusterfuck. (Which is more than I can say for some commenters around these parts)
So I guess Jon really is just a moronic douchebag and not a monster. Yay lowered expectations. #rabbishmuleyjongosselin
Beware of anyone who writes a book called "The Broken American Male." (Especially when that book talks about how the author "only" makes $400,000/year and he has 10 kids.) Anyway, I’ve heard him speak before. The dude’s an ass. #rabbishmuleyjongosselin
@deeemer: It's ridiculous, no doubt. I don't know how anyone does it. But you know a great remedy for that? DON'T HAVE 10 KIDS! #rabbishmuleyjongosselin
@LaComtesse: Ha. But someone who's making 400,000 can afford ten kids. So if anyone can do it, he can. But some of his views frighten me, and I hope his children don't subscribe, blindly, to everything he writes and espouses. #rabbishmuleyjongosselin

The media took Jon's mouth and made it say awful things to his young girlfriend.
This Rabbi is the FoxNews of all Rabbis.
