4. Oh boy

How about all those Iraqi children who are without parents? Or military children? Of course they're going to cover her. She's a pretty blonde who was probably really popular. I feel bad she is missing but why can't they cover all the Bush lies?!

2. Don't people go missing in the USA all the time?

Don't people skip out on weddings all the time?
Don't people grapple with brain-dead kin all the time?
Don't people instigate high-speed chases all the time?

There will always be fodder for the easily-distracted.

5. Yes but the particular spotlight is reserved for those in the TOP 1%.

13. Speaking of which...

...whatever happened to that flower vendor that was abducted in DC a few weeks back?

3. I wonder if the runaway bride has voted in the "How old are you" poll?

525 votes so far... represent your age group now!

10. Holloway's family is optimistic she will be found soon.

"We just want all her family and friends and everybody who reads your article, to pray for her safe return," Twitty said. "And we do expect to get her back."

Between that and the end of the Jacko trial, they have lots of distractions to employ.

Imagine a Jacko conviction.

Imagine a 'find the pretty blond white girl' stories.

Imagine the DSM ..... not.
