Ninety-Six Tears and Fifty-Six Quibbles
Advertisements [?]
The song "96 Tears" came out in 1966, sung by a group called the Mysterians, led by an oddball character named Question Mark. Question Mark later shortened the spelling of his name to the typographical symbol for a question mark, ?. He was, to say the least, unusual. He claimed to have been a Martian in a previous life, and never appeared in public without his sunglasses.

There's a new group of Republican refuseniks called "Fifty-Six Quibbles" who make the baseless claim that Fahrenheit 9/11 is full of lies and distortions. The group's 56 quibbles concern well-established political disputes about which reasonable people have disagreed for quite some time. Fifty-Six Quibbles may be the linear descendant of the Impeach Earl Warren crowd, or perhaps the Flat Earth Society. Do not antagonize them! Their behavior may be unpredictable, especially when challenged to support their nonsensical claims.
