Is anyone else sick about hearing this story...

2. I admire the mother
Say what you want about anything else, she is doing whatever she can to figure out what happened to her daughter.

8. Hannity is showing a pond in Aruba that MAY
contain a clue. There's water in that pond. And weeds and flowers surround it. The water ripples. There's a MAN - hey - he must be looking for clues. The Dutch playboy is rotting in jail. And back to the pond again......blah blah blah.
Fox News is masterful about using this one story to keep the tidal wave of Rovegate, Robertsmania, Iraq failure, Bushimplosion, etc; off the air. And the sheeple continue with their grazing.

9. There is no body
These were not dumb kids, and they were the son of a Judge.

10 to nothing says the body was 5 miles out with an anchor tied to her the next day. This relentless seach of the island is an unfortunate reality of a grieving parent and a country too scared to tell her that its not going to accomplish anything.

10. yep...merikuns like rich little blonde girls...not so much poor ones...and
for sure not little girls of color.

Sorry if I seem a little harsh, it's been going on for the past couple of years - Laci Peterson, Elizabeth Smart, the Michael Jackson trial, the runaway bride and now Aruba, Aruba, Aruba! Welcome to DU!

Of course we are all sad about the lost children. But as you said there are so many more children that go missing in the US, and with hardly a whisper. Sad, sad, sad!

13. Damn I thought
they had finally found Natalee. Your title looked so exciting.

Yes, as tragic as this story is, it has been covered to death.
