Suzanne: At Least I Don't Have a Kid in Iraq

In the wake of a devastating fire that destroyed her Malibu home, Suzanne Somers maintains a positive attitude.

In a statement to TMZ issued by her rep, Suzanne says, "My nature is to look at the glass half full. I don't have a son or daughter in Iraq. I haven't lost a loved one. We will rebuild, and I truly believe we will learn something great from this experience."

Suzanne and her husband were not in Malibu during the blaze.

31. Yes, I too fail to see the connection between losing a multi-million dollar estate and not losing a child to the Iraq conflict. I believe that one possible explanation is to take advantage of an inflamed situation - I mean, look at the postings by the venemous and unfathomably idiotic anti-wartesters here - in order to boost her long deposed popularity.

So, is she really acting unselfishly, or seeking to once again elevate herself to renown by making such an inane statement? I mean, there was that study done finding the level of narcissism among actors/actresses/politicians is very high...

34. Um, yea - comment 26 is grossly uninformed. "America Deceived" by Blayre is available online at Amazon. I don't know if Google dropped it b/c it wasn't selling well, but aparently it's not due to Gov't censorship.

I'm not quite certain as to the validity of the rest of his assertions either. But I do know that he makes grossly incorrect statements as to the alleged "illegality" of wiretapping & can conclude only that he has not taken Constitutional Law 101 or anything even remotely resembling academic thought on the rights and powers of the separate branches of our government.

You should start up your own blog - people love shallow thinking, factless discussion about areas they have no expertise in.

35. hmm....my husband is currently serving in Iraq....has watched good men die around him...and is still proud to serve. Her MULTIMILLION DOLLAR MANSION burns down and she chooses to acknowlage us families now. Sorry...I'm glad no one was hurt but she has MILLIONS to rebuild and there have been times where I had to chose to feed my kids or drive my car because the goverment doesn't pay soldiers nowhere close to what she makes in a day. Where was she when I, and others had to make THAT choice???

36. HUH? All these people are dising Suzanne for her statement? READ it people. She was simply saying that having her home burn down is NOTHING compared to what the families of our servicemen and servicewomen are going through.

Good god. Get off her back.

39. Maybe she could do something to help the troops instead of selling her cheap crap on QVC. We need to send millions of illegal aliens to Iraq tro die and fight.

40. Kelly ...Are you a teenager??....cause you talk like one...you are really, really stupid with your comments....

41. Whether she was slamming or supporting the Iraq war, the analogy was strange--sort of reminiscent of Kerry's, "if you don't get an education, you get stuck in Iraq" joke.

No matter, it's typical Hollyweird. Would you expect anything less?

42. Save your energy on Iraq and look towards Somalia, Dickhead!

43. Since you're looking on the bright side, let's not forget some other bad things that have not happened to you....

1.) You're kids aren't mentally retarded (it didn't get passed down from you)
2.) You're mother and father weren't killed by Nazi's in a concentration camp (although that would have been nice if they had been BEFORE you were born)
3.) You're face didn't melt from the fire (since so much of it is plastic)
4.) You keep your freedom to continue pooping stuff out of your mouth like this
5.) So on and on

Congrats A hole
