What else WOULD you use to kill one of those?? All jokes aside this is CLASSIC California. Use a .50 cal on a whale everyone will want your head. Use a .50 cal on a police officers and you'll be acquitted because your daddy didn't love you or you were hooked on drugs.

The original Osama was allowed to escape at Tora Bora so Bush could get his war in Iraq, that he had been planning since his first Cabinet meeting, started.

6 years later and Bush's Iraq war is a quagmire. Good news for Bush's buddies in the Oil companies, but bad news for the American public.

Thousands of American kids have been killed and tens of thousands more have been maimed in Bush's war. All independent reports show Bush's war as a total failure that is not winnable through military means.

Now the Bush administration put out a new video with a totally new Osama that doesn't look anything like the other Osamas in the other videos.

Does this indicate that they are about to stage a capture of the new Osama to try to sell Bush's war to a weary and wary American public?

How will Bush use the capture of the new Osama to start Bush's planned war in Iran?

There was absolutely no need for him to speak as he left the plane, the pair of them standing there acting it out with those poor little mites in their arms. Their statement had been made by their representative in Portugal after they left. You'd think he would have wanted to get the twins home instead of putting them through that.

sad pathetic losers who have more interest in other peoples lives than in your own lives! Jesus leave them alone i hope one day you lot are caught up in the media and have the world hate you!

You yes you! reading this now really dont know all the facts you probably dont know hardly any of them!!! So before you pass judgement on them think before you act. People keep saying o take the twins away from them. Who are you to say that, are you a proffessional within the british child care system. I bet you are not. your just know all idiots who have an opinion on everything that does not concern you!

If your really that concerned about young children. Why dont you get you wallets out and donate some money to childline (NSPCC) that would help children not standing there voicing your media influenced opinions on Maddies parents!
Who agree's!
O for all you out there who really care that are just not biching heres the link to donate some cash to help a child!

The Portuguese police has bungled this terrible crime, because either they are professionally inept and incompetent or they are absolutely corrupt and have members of a paedophilic rings within their members who would go to any length to protect the abductors of this girl and other unresolved abductions previously to protect themselves, and then turned the search light on the parents, and murdered the girl, now planted the blood in the parents rooms and returned later when no one was watching under the protection of Portuguese secrecy act to plant her blood in the hire car and hired death scent products to excite their dogs, alleging that the parents might have murdered their own loving daughter by accident, is absolutely disgusting and outrageous.

Our government in the good old US of A is out of touch but only because so many people in this country have forgotten that this country was started was to keep government out of your life that's why the founding fathers came to the new world to escape this. now as a super power built on the belief of freedom but you can not drive a car without wearing a seat belt, or smoke a cig in an open air park. now we want to force what we do on Iraq who made us or the U.S.A. the way it should be. maybe just maybe not all people want to be American.
do you agree? does being an American still mean you are free, or just that your too stupid to not know different?

That the twins are going to be taken into care. It is a fact that they neglected those young children so why shouldn't they be taken from them.Why should they be treated differently to other people who neglect their kids. Why is it one rule for them and another rule for another. Neglect is neglect.

more like a rehearsed speech instead of a statement. I thought it sounded remarkably like Tony Blair's tribute to Diana, the people's princess etc...with all the long pauses etc. Media voice coaching or just me being cynical?

Just read todays papers and some of the reporting is just plain wrong. One journalist states that Kate carries a cuddly rabbit, another that they checked the children every 15 minutes and another shows a picture of the apartment with a route indicating that the entrance was by the pool and not on the main road round the corner.
With such - albeit small - discrepancies how the hell can we get a proper grip on the story?

It doesn't seem to upset the major newspapers and TV networks that here is another blatant example of campaign funding scandal involving the leaders of the Democratic candidates. What if Norm had been filling the war chests of Giuliani, Romney, McCain and company? (And where did this chinaman get his money from anyway? Does no one think this is worth investigating?)

Looks like another Tax excuse.

If I run a computer and it uses allot of electric, so be it, I pay for the electric and what has that go to do with the Tory party in anycase?

I have green issues at heart and I use where possible energy efficient appliances and lighting so I do my bit but it takes the "P" when you have a political party proposing radical ideas like this.

I only use TV to play DVD's for my son, I don;t watch TV, I get everything via the internet so it is a bit of a "P" take when you read articles like that, if you have a plasma screen TV, enjoy it, you paid for it, you have to pay for the lekkie which is taxed!!! dont for getthat, so what is the Tory party making plans like these for?

IM waiting for the Lib Dems and New Labour to stick their 2 pennys worth in the pick n mix.

What are your views?

Alright, so it's tragic for the family: BUT:
1.countless kids go missing every year. Why should we focus on just one of them, as though the other missing children don't matter?
2. When I was at the airport I saw a sign telling me to 'look out for madeleine mccann. Yeah right! I've got better things to do on holiday than look for a missing kid from a family I don't even know. Besides, it's very easy to make a wrong identification.
3. It's all turned into a media circus, with people sticking their oar in and interfering with the family's private business. People should stop meddling in this affair and let the McCanns deal with it in their own way.
4. I think we've all had enough of it. Let the police continue the investigation by all means, but it's time this neurotic national obsession stopped.

From the genocide in Kosovo from the Genocide in Darfur from the genocide in Rwanda from the situation in Somalia where there's been no real Govt since 1991 & the people there just kill each other from the Iraq crises from the crises in Iran from the crises in North Korea from the decades battle between the Palestinians & Israelis the United Nations has stood idly by & done nothing. They should rename themselves the Useless Nations.

I do. All this time it was "we're not leaving without maddie". now that they are suspects, they can't get out fast enough? They say they don't want to appear to be running, but that's what it looks like to me.
