The Ultra Unbelievable

In a move with little precedent in the fashion industry, Kate Moss, one of the world's most recognizable models, was dismissed from a planned advertising campaign yesterday after executives said she had admitted to recently using cocaine…

But the public reaction to H&M's position, which was given extensive play on the Internet and in the media, was unexpectedly negative. Customers called stores over the weekend, many complaining that the company, which markets to teenagers and young adults, would be associated with a model who admitted using drugs.

"After the feedback from customers and other papers," Ms. Uglialoro said, "we decided we should distance ourselves from any kind of drug abuse…"

The campaign seeks to reconnect Gloria Vanderbilt with the 1970's disco scene that first brought it to prominence.

First of all, let's be honest, if you want to reconnect Gloria Vanderbilt with the 1970's disco scene, cocaine is the way to go. 

If H&M were serious about their ad campaign, they'd just shoot a bunch of photographs of Kate Moss naked, making snow angels on a Peruvian flaked covered mirror the size of a football field.

But after that, the public--the one that worships supermodels is shocked and outraged that a supermodel is actually snorting cocaine?  That one supermodel is setting a bad example for our daughters?

Because she's snorting coke???

Hey, America!  The free cocaine is the reason women become supermodels in the first place!

We've got the world's worst bidnessman claiming he's "running" the country like a CEO.  We've got the biggest, wildest, most irresponsible spenders in the history of the world calling themselves "conservatives".  We've got utility infielders the size of garbage dumpsters hitting fifty homeruns a year and standing up in front of Congress and saying, "Steroids?  What are steroids?"

While their skulls actually expand, live, on CSPAN.

And now we've got Madison Avenue expressing it's shock and disbelief that an 85 pound supermodel snorts coke.

And to all this?  The American public says, "Hey, it could happen."  And your liberal media?  They type this garbage up as if it were actually in the realm of possibility.

Christ, we should have ditched the bald eagle in January of 2001.  Just get it over with, already.  For once and for all.

Make the Easter Bunny our national symbol.  And be done with it.
