News & Events - August 2007

And if they are arrested for this crime, how do you think it will affect people, I mean everyone has given them so much support, donations etc, (well in the beginning anyway) I'm not saying they may have murdered their daughter but I think they have more to do with it or are not giving over all the info, they even got to meet the pope!! will it jepodise future missing children cases, I hope not but I think a lot of people will be devestated, if what we are all thinking finally comes out.

Its all very well and good people reporting 'sightings' but this woman has had a previous record of having sighted things such as house fires which have made the paper.

If she's an attention seeker then she should be prosecuted for wasting police time. Im sure Belgium has many other cases waiting on forensic evidence that doesnt need to be delayed with this needless testing of a glass.

I might sound harsh, but I hope they go after her, purely because this is not the first time she has cried wolf. Her trying to gain publicity on the back of a likely dead child is out and out disgusting.

"In a radio interview Madeleine's mother, Kate McCann, said that although there was no positive news she was encouraged that people were still looking for her daughter.

"It says to us that people are still looking and that is really important and we would encourage that," she said.

"I probably have more hope now than I did at the beginning."

She added: "We haven't had any news to the contrary that Madeleine isn't alive, and that's very important."
"

Maybe her reaction is understandable if she believed from the start that the sighting was false, but it does seem to be a bit of a 'shrug the shoulders, oh well it wasnt her' kind of reaction.

Maybe she read my comments early on when I said the DNA result would prove to be false and she knows that if Dave S says something it must be true (lol, I say that last line tongue in cheek so don't all jump down my throat!)

Do you feel you've gotten your money's worth? You do realize you could have had completely free health care for every American (and even the illegals) for 100 years for less than that. You could have increased salaries for teachers and built quality schools and research facilities nationwide. You could have invested in clean energy programs on a huge scale to make America the world's clean energy standard. When the dust settles, what will you come away from Iraq with?

I think it should be a law that you should not give kids caffeine. I know people who give their kids Mountain Dew in sippy cups and I think this is wrong. What do you think?

I'm watching a Science channel program about the next mission to the moon, scheduled to launch in October 2008. When Bush announced his plans to send men back to the moon, and to attempt a permanent manned base on the moon, he was roundly attacked by liberals. Now this program is celebrating the upcoming mission, without any acknowledgment that Bush was the instigator of the attempt. Why the hypocrisy? Is it the scientific establishment that has the anti-Republican bias, or is it the media?

It's sad that 3500 or so US troops have been killed. Of course 53,000 US troops died in WW1; 291,000 died in WW2; 33,000 died in Korea; and 47,000 died in Vietnam. The world is a dangerous place. If you want to acheive anything, there are costs.

Then IF a dead body was in the apartment, we can safely assume it was Madeleine's since any other dead body there would have surfaced at some point.

SO

If Madeleine was killed by an 'abductor'

a) Why would he wipe away the blood stains?

b) Why would he take away Madeleine's body? The only reason to do so is if he believes that Madeleine's body has forensic evidence on it such as DNA. But given that he would not have had time to assault Madeleine because of the small time frames involved and that he could be caught at any time, I doubt he would have worried about this aspect.

So why given that, would you risk carrying a dead child out of an apartment and being caught red-handed? You wouldnt.

There is only 1 reason that someone would remove a body from the apartment and thats if you were worried that the discovery of the body would look bad for them, and the fact that no other persons DNA would be found on Madeleine which would point the finger of suspicion on those around her.

The average American is making roughly the same amount of money that they did in 1988 and are working more hours for that same sum yet our elected officals are proposing to raise taxes to fix bridges and water systems across the country by a tax increase to gas ( of all things ). Not to mention shell out a bundle on more studies.
The fact is they already had studies and had the facts in their laps on the levies in New Orleans before Katrina hit and the bridge that failed in Minnasota...again they had the facts and did nothing.
They seem keen to keep pinching Americans for more who are already in a crunch to get by...I say its time to make them carry a portion of that burden which directly effects their pocket books and retirement funds.
