Bear Costume? Haloween is coming up. I just had to order a Power-Rangers-Dinothunder costume for my 4-1/2 year old!

The person in the bear suit is probably justadvertising for some costume rental joint. {WINK WINK}

#2 Gonna be 86 in D.C. tomorrow. Enjoy those bear suits.
Also make sure Bobby Jr. gets asked about the windmill farm he'll be able to see from Uncle Ted's house. Ask him if it'll screw up the view of the "indigenous peoples" of Hyannisport.

#4 I've been to D.C. in the summer before, and shorts/t-shirt were plenty. What kind of dumbass would wear a polar bear suit in that kind of heat?
When the guy has a heat stroke and dies will it be Bush's fault? Der Speigel will probably report it that way.

#5 Polar bears aren't really bears, you know. Closer to the Weasle and the Wolverine.

#8 Polar bears aren't really bears
Polar bear is Ursus Maritimus; member of Ursidae - the bear family.

Weasels and wolverines belong to Mustelidae family along with skunks, badgers and otters.

#9 The bear-suiting sillies are just acting out a harmless sexual fetish (defining deviancy downward, anyone?). Just ignore them unless they start getting carried away in front of the children.

#10 mojo might be thinking of Giant Pandas, which indeed are not bears.

#11 I want a concession to sell bear-hunting licenses on the Mall!

#12 The protesters are absolutely right. We must preserve this ~~God forsaken wasteland~~ fragile ecosystem from the depredations of oil exploration. The fate of a herd of caribou or the noble polar bear is certainly more important than ~~national security~~ corporate greed.

#13 I think that the folks in the bear suits should be taken into custody and dropped out on the pack ice beyond Churchill Bay with the real polar bears.
