Octomom's Halloween costume really scares us

Oh, Nadya Suleman. Will the world ever understand your wacky, wacky sensibility?

Now let's be clear: If ever there was a moment to pick up on a pop-culture Zeitgeist and run with it, Halloween is it. We're sure we'll see plenty of Levi Johnston's Johnstons, grounded Balloon Boys, and yes, even some Octomoms.

But what exactly was the mother of fourteen thinking with this outfit? A pregnant nun is questionable enough, but the implication of the octuplets dressed as devils seems like a bad judgment call, even for a woman decided to give birth to 8 kids she conceived through IVF, never mind that she was unemployed at the time, had 6 more kids at home, and had run her own parents ragged trying to keep up with the bills from her ever-expanding family.

The takeaway from this outfit, as far as we can tell, is that Nadya Suleman is not afraid to cross any line, no matter how off-putting. But then, we didn't really need to see her in a costume to know that.

    Whats really sad is that the government will continue to support her and the 14 kids while the others work too hard and barely have money after paying for her and their own family to live. Thats the sad reality.

    She's getting the publicity she wants. As long as there is a market for news of her 'exploits' then she will continue to be in the spotlight.

    Who cares if she dresses her kids up as little devils and she goes as a pregnant nun. Halloween is about being what you are NOT. If her kids were dressed in slutty garb at a young age, or she was, I could see room for criticism.

    I'm not saying she's mother of the year, but it looks to me like she's just trying to have a tongue-in-cheek fun kind of Halloween.

    I'm over it.

    Mel: She's comparable to Andrea Yates and Susan Smith? How is that? She didn't drown her babies... she just gave birth to an enormous amount of kids in a very haphazard situation.

    Holy Christ... I am the last person who thinks her having a litter of kids is right... but to compare her to a two mothers who killed their children by drowning them?

    I think you need a new perspective on things.

    It doesn't surprize me that one of our favorite LOSERS is tastelessly drawing attention to herself again! The PREGNANT PART I'd accept knowing her reputation, so insulting nuns shouldn't startle me either.

    Andrea Yates was sick. She had mental problems that clouded her judgement and made it impossible to see that she wasn't actually SAVING her children by drowning them. I think Suleman knew and knows exactly what she is doing by having 14 kids and by dressing this way. She craves attention, needs it, lives for it. Don't compare her to people with real problems. She created this monster all on her own. By writing these sorts of pieces, we give her what she's looking for. To me, ignoring her antics is the best way to deal with her.
