I dont have children yet, so i wouldn't know at what age they generally start talking & walking etc.
When a child reaches the age of two - are they good with responding to your questions, do they talk a little etc.?

My point i'm trying to make; is if Maddy's parents left her alone with their 2-year old twins, surely they could've got child psychologists to 'squeeze' out some information from them!

Will the Portugal government NOT allow this, or am i just clutching at straws?

Does any1 else think that the McCanns masterminded the disapperance of Madeline,, from start 2 finish,, they reckon they checked there kids every half hour on that fateful night,, but was she even there 2 check,,, i dont think she was,, i reckon sumat had happened 2 her b4 that eve,,, i dont think she was even abducted,,, i think sumat happened that the parents r guilty of,, and this is a "cleva" way of covering up wot they have dun 2 her. And wen was the last time anybody saw her with her parents n siblings???
Something is definately amiss on this case,, and the sooner the police question them properly the sooner the whole sad situation can be resolved,,,
And dont even get me started on the Team McCann,, its so gross i cud sit and throw up..!
The police need 2 search the baron land in portugal, that mite b a good place 2 start the search 4 little Maddy.

Why is Madeleine Mccan getting so much attention when there are thousands of kids all over the world dying from AIDS, malaria, starvation and malnutrition? What about the kids who are being abused and raped by their own fathers? What about the kids being forced into prostitution? What about the countless other kids all over the world who have been abducted recently?

This seems like a perfect example of people being so totally ignorant that they buy right in to the media frenzy created around this little girl, because the media know that the image of her lovely white innocent face will manipulate people emotionally, the end result being a highly profitable phenomenon for the news industry.
Why, for example, is nobody wearing a cheesy yellow ribbon in aid of the kids in africa who are truly suffering? Do they matter less for some reason? Is it cos they dont have a cute little 'press photo' like Madeleine?

People are unbelievably ignorant.

It's amnesty no matter what they call it, and paves the way for the NAFTA superhighway and the NAU.

For the democrats its hillary clinton, Barack Obama, and John Edwards while the republicans have Mitt Romney, Rudy Giuliani, and John McCain. These 6 candidates were given to us right away as the major candidates...doesn't that make you skeptical?

Bloomberg isn't the only one. There seem to be several hours of programming everyday related to the stockmarket. Shouldn't VOA be promoting the US internationally? I don't get it. I will say that most of the programming is good. It's just the hours of mindless stockmarket talk that I don't get. The stockmarket TV on VOA isn't an overview or a summary of the day but rather a random sample of any old hour of chatting on the channel.

I wonder if there is corruption in showing Bloomberg TV? In a way Bloomberg gets to use the US Govt system to get its name out. Thoughts?

Right or wrong, now the US is in big debt due to the war. Should the government raise taxes to protect the stability of the country's financial system for future generations? The tax could come in a variety of forms. A gas tax might be one, the US government could put a light tax on land, a sales tax is an option etc. Experts agree that the total cost of the war will be over 1 trillion. Some say it could go up to 2 trillion. This is considering a variety of factors.

Isn't it time the US end its debtor nation status? It would be painful now but in the future there would be a lot less debt. Of course the whole debt wouldn't be paid of next year but rather more quickly than it is being paid off now.

Instead of the whys & hows & whens she was taken, can't we focus on ways the abductor can return her. With all the hype, he being totally sick (literally), must be totally freaking out now & even if he wants to return her may be too panicked to know how. Can someone suggest what would be the safest way Madeline / any missing child can be returned? Can he just call & leave an address. He would be apprehensive about being traced so we need to point out a way to him just to get her back. Dealing with him can be focussed on later. Abductors need to know that parents will want their precious children back no matter what.
