Losers. All of Them.

Baby-boomers (and wannabes) who have nothing better to do with their time on a beautiful sunny day than act like obnoxious morons.

A guy in a gorilla suit, a bevy of Raging Grannies and a massive papier-mache Gandhi joined tens of thousands of protesters in San Francisco on Saturday for a two-mile march and anti-war rally to mark the first anniversary of the war in Iraq.

Either 25,000 or 50,000 people attended the event -- based on early estimates from police and organizers, respectively.

With temperatures hovering in the high 70s and a cloudless sky overhead, a mellow mood seemed to permeate the crowd, with countless marchers basking in the sun on their backs, their eyes closed as an amplified call of "Long live Cuba" filled the air.
