Could someone confirm or deny this story?

[ekwhite]

I found this topic on "A Liberal Dose" (http://www.aliberaldose.blogspot.com/). This blog states that Grannies for Peace member Doris Macinshaw was declared an enemy combatant and sent to Guantanamo. This story sounds suspicious to me, and I wanted to see if someone could confirm or deny whether there is a member of Grandmothers for Peace named Doris Macinshaw, whether she has been arrested, and whether or not she has been held incommunicado.

1. You should take it with a Liberal dose

There's no other source for this.

We'll have to wait and see.

It's possible, but I can't find the "original" Reuters story.

5. They were on the verge of overthrowing the governement,

and destroying everything good... you want the u.s. to do nothing!?

you weren't serious about the question, were you? stuff like this gets in the parody section in right-wing sites.

11. Yes, I was serious

Actually, I *was* serious. I was asking the question because I *did not* believe the story. I obviously noticed the misspelling of 'Reuters' and 'wait.' That is precisely why I was asking here. No need to get snarky.

6. That would be "incommunicada"

And no. This is satire (poorly written). It's "Reuters" not "Rueters." And there is no GAMMA division of Homeland Security.

7. Hmm.....

Well, I found Rueters.com on the web. It appears to be a legitimate site.

But you guys think this might not be true?

That's a real photograph.

10. "Rueters" appears to be one of those google ad scam sites

I don't see any real content there.

The story is a joke. But it says some sad things about your president that there is any doubt about it.

And I don't think most white people are icky.

Well, maybe we could contact someone in Homeland Security to confirm or deny it once and for all?
