Is it because of Y2K and people giving more money to companies that was needed? Is that why nobody trusts a company that asks for money anymore?

The little girl Maddy who has gone missing recently may have caused a big stir in the news. The other night I noticed several celebrities wearing these yellow ribbons as an expression of supporting Maddy & her family. I was angry, firstly because children go missing all the time & they never get any support from the public through special ribbon bearing by celebrities etc. so why should this one incident be so special? it happens all the time, more should be done to support the other families- just because they don't go ostentatiously public about their bereavement doesn't mean they shouldn't have the same support as Maddy's family- these ribbons don't seem to help much in the way of charity anyway, which brings me to my second point-
the rubber wrist bands "make poverty history" etc.
as soon as the shops had realised there was a new bandwagon to be made on the back of our "I'm so caring!" (*said in a sarcastic manner*) society, they started shipping out crap at the expense of charity.

Here is a statement that was made about Barack Obama:

--"The Rev. Robert Abbott, pastor of the Holy Trinity Baptist Church in Amityville, N.Y., said Obama connects with black audiences because of the preacher's style he uses when addressing them."--

What does Mr. Abbot mean by this? What is the "preacher's style"? Whatever it is, isn't Mr. Abbot using a stereotype of black audiences? Are black people supposed to be more likely than any other group to respond favorably to a "preacher's style"?

According to the 14 th Amendment Section 3 of the U.S. Constitution which is supposed to be the supreme law of this land; Bush and Cheney are forbidden from holding the offices of President and Vice President based on their participation in an act of Insurrection against America because they did so after taking an oath to defend the Constitution and while they were federal officials.

If you don't believe Cheney, Bush, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Bolton, Silverstein, Guiliani, Pataki, and others did 9/11; it is only because you do not remember the facts, aren't paying attention or, you are totally in denial. The good news is that denial is an early phase and will soon wear off. The bad news is you may be the personal property of Bush or Cheney before it does.

A little while ago a women came in the police & said that her daughters father had broken into her house, took her 3 year old child & her childs passport & vanished, the women even had a convincing black eye. The police investigated the case, couldn't track down the father & in the end the case was put on file. A few years pass & whilst dragging the river for a body the police find a suitcase. Inside was a body of a young girl, turns out it was the missing girl from the suspected father abduction case. The mother confesses that she & her current boyfriend got too carried away sexually abusing the girl & accidently killed her & her father had nothing to do with an abduction or killing. The father was later found abroad & evidence had shown he had not entered the country for years.
The point of this morbid story is if a woman can do this to her own child why couldn't the Mc Canns? They may have gotten drunk & carried away & accidently killed Maddie. Then hid the body & made up a story.

Yes, we all want to see Paris Hilton brought down a peg or two, but this latest incident of her being dragged screaming from court calling for her mother like a child with her full sentence reinstated seems like mental torture. I mean, it's only a traffic offense, not rape, murder or drug dealing. Is she being made an example of so the judge can flex her muscles and impress everyone? Is she getting her comeuppance or is she getting a raw deal? What do you think?

Did you see that we intercepted two convoys of insurgents shipping weapons to Afghanistan? they saw the weopons with fake U.S. Army labels same as the ones they have found in Iraq, just goes to show you that Iran is funding terrorism same ways Iraq was doing to the Taliban. But now our goverment is so scared over the Iraq war that they dont want to do nothing to spark another war so they are not adressing it. Hopefully this doesnt back fire and Iran decides to smuggle nuclear weapons or chemical weapons to Iraq.

Did you see the interview the kid who won the national competition in CNN?

Link is here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4hLS01uscY

That has to be the MOST awkward interview ever. That kid who absolutely no social skill whatsoever. It shouldn't come as a surprise as they spend their time remember words from a freaking dictionary.

Isn't spelling bee competition one of the most stupid pursuit ever? Is there any benefit at all, other than say "oh, I can spell that word"?

I believe Sirhan Sirhan killed Bobby Kennedy and that he acted alone. Fired 8 bullets. 3 of them hit Mr. Kennedy.

I watched the "Conspiracy Test" program on the Discovery Channel. I'm sticking to the "Lone assassin" theory. I find it unlikely that there was a conspiracy and a cover-up going on.
