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.

61. When you're being shot at or dodging grenades, it's not Politics that matter. It's not a left or right issue to a soldier in the trenches. War sucks no matter who you are. What counts? Come home safe. I guess if you don't have family in Iraq you can't relate. She said nothing wrong.

62. The US Tyrant ought to be 'brought to justice' for his terror and war crimes. Stupid ugly fat Americans that still support the FUBAR territorial pissing in Iraq are suffering from some serious cogntive dissonance. Matt Drudge is a fairy.

64. The REAL incitement to all this is the lame left-wing typical anti-war retorical title this mainstream failure of a journalist gave Ms. Somers comments. I didn't get the same tone out of her quote as the slanted title given this Constitutional protected midget who wrote the article. Go dawn your peace sign around your neck and pass the weed around the circle with your wacko friends and quite plaguing those of us who see through your bias.

67. Thanks No# 7 for keeping things real . Everyone knows I would have run the war more like General Powell wanted -- more armor , equipment , and technology to seal the borders -- even speaks moreso of the great effort our troops are putting in . These Men and Women are real heroes and deserve all our prayers and respect ( listening John?) . Please keep your critics of the war to the politics and don't make light of the armed forces doing the job ....And say a prayer to keep them safe and bring them home .

69. Ms. Somers is a nice person, but how dare she act as though we parents of deployed Soldiers are tormented. We are PROUD of our Sons decision to serve and even prouder of the work they have accomplished...what we are sick of are these liberals who are stuck in the 60's who think are kids are stupid and were drafted..They weren't, they went by choice into the service and it is schmucks from Ms. Somers crowd who eliberately paint the pictures of despair for their own agenda and benefit...especially since these cowards have no stake in the fire whatsoever..and they want to cry and worrry for us? Spare us.

70. Wow... BEFORE YOU POST READ HER COMMENTS AND PAUSE ONE MOMENT... She is saying there are worse things in life than losing her home. She is thankful that she does not have to worry about a son or a daughter in Iraq.

In no way is she disparaging those serving the country by saying what she did. In fact, she recognizes the sacrifies they and their loved ones are making.

71. BAAAAH BAAAAH BAAAH!

Celebrity mentioned Iraq...BAAAAH...said something about a soldier being in Iraq...BAAAAH...She must have been denigrating the troops...BAAAH...Tell her to leave the country for using her free speech...BAAAH...I love the troops and she doesn't...BAAAH...She practically loves the Nazis for saying that...BAAAAH.

Attention "patriots", your yellow ribbon magnet has faded in the sun, for all these years you've been "supporting the troops". Time to re-up for another 4 years... Not by joining the military and putting your money where your mouth is...no of course not. I mean is time for you to pick up another, Made in China yellow magnet which shows your fervent support of democracy.

73. If US Troops were defending the US Constitution from 800+ Tyrannical POTUS SIgning Statements, or from our AIPAC infested Government they might be "Heroes"! But tools defending Zionist Israel and Big Oil are not Heroes!
Tar and Feather the Democrats, the Republicans, and the Corporate Media!

74. I'm sorry, but I dont feel to badly for her. She surely will be reimbursed from insurance claims and will fliter off to built another mansion, that she rarely uses, somewhere else.
She should be thanking god for those sons & daughters that are in the field defending her rich life style.
