I wondered how long it would be before Gerry would be suing ...again. He and his PR spin machine are a laughing stock
Clarence Mitchell says,
He said that the couple planned to sue 24 Horas over the allegations about Madeleine's paternity as soon as their official suspect status was lifted.

"We have up to a year to sue and we will do. Gerry and Kate want to concentrate on the case involving Madeleine and don't want to do anything that may compromise that while they are official suspects," he said.

"But they plan to sue 24 hours and any other media outlets that print these claims as soon as the official suspect status is lifted."

That's if they are not otherwise engaged.Clarrie.
My question is...When are they going to hold their hands up,think of Maddy and tell the truth instead of spinning around chasing their tails ? Pro McCanns don't need to answer.

As you may know, yesterday a shooting occured at Success Tech here in Ohio. And a few months ago, a shooting at Virginia Tech broke out. Not to mention Columbia and other shootings. What can we do to prevent this from happening? Initiate random locker/bag searches throughout the week? It seems impossible to avoid such a spontaneous event like that, but what do YOU think could be done?

We read that Kate and Gerry McCann remain the MAIN SUSPECTS in the case of the disappearance of their own daughter. This confirmation did not come from some leaking Police minnow via '24 Horas' but were the words of Portugals Top Police Officer Alipio Ribeiro.

Tommorow brings new DNA evidence from the forensics labs in Birmingham so the Portuguese may well have enough evidence by the weekend to consider bringing charges.

Is it time for Kate and Gerry to stop fooling around wasting time and money on distractions for media PR purposes and 'come clean' as to what REALLY happened to Madeleine McCann on the night of 3rd May 2007 ?

This is exacty what has been going on at a hospital in Maidstone, Kent. It led to the deaths of 90 people after they caught a serious bug. Surely manslaughter charges should be brought against the appropriate people?

That when Bush tries, unsuccessfully I may add, to deny that the Turks committed Genocide on the Armenians, the only thing that is deafening, is the silence of the average american idiot?
Story here in case you missed it;
http://www.rte.ie/news/2007/1010/armenia.html

Of course Turkey is counted as an "ally" by the Bush admin isn't it? And they don't seem to be very happy about being in the same historical boat as the Nazi's or Stalin's communists either. Know what? Too friggen bad.
When you commit genocide (or try to defend it, like Bush just did) then prepare to be treated as such.
And just one more question for people who DO support this mindless chimp, what the hell are you people thinking?

I conclude it is based on:-

Reading the garbage coming from the McCann case - both British and Portugese reporting complete unsubstantiated sh*te time and again

The hounding to death of Diana and Dodi - just look at the latest on that story - bike's hassling their car unti it crashed.

Knowing people who have been hounded and doorstepped by these people when a loved one dies.

I wish I could find a news source that was accurate and balanced and compassionate - frankly having read how they behaved with Diana as she lay dying I have decided I want to bail out of this product. ANY IDEAS?

"Local Colombian officials have accused two US soldiers, Michael J. Cohen and César Ruiz, of sexually assaulting a 12 year-old girl on Saturday August 25, 2007. The soldiers are stationed at the Tolemaida Airbase near Melgar, Tolima, as part of Plan Colombia (... )

"Although the investigation is still underway, Cohen, using the diplomatic immunity granted him under Plan Colombia, has fled the country. The Colombia Support Network, an US-based Colombia solidarity organization, claims that Cohen's flight was facilitated by the US government, an action which "appears to put US military personnel above the law [and] must be rescinded." (...)
"This is not the first instance of US Plan Colombia personnel behaving badly in Colombia"(...)

The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence has just announced that 1 or 2 units a week of alcohol for pregnant women is fine. HAVE THEY LOST THEIR MIND? The complete MORONS! Have they never heard of Foetal Alcohol Syndrome? As far as I'm concerned NO alcohol is the best alcohol during pregnancy and women who listen to this deeply misguided and dangerous advice are stupid and selfish.
