Greta Van Susteren on why Aruba tops SCOTUS
SNIP SNIP....

"On Wednesday, the day after the Roberts announcement, Van Susteren, who has camped out in Aruba several times, did four Holloway segments on her "On the Record" program and one -- an interview with John McCain -- on the court vacancy.

"I see it as a lesson in how we collect evidence," says Van Susteren, whose ratings have soared since Holloway's disappearance in late May. "Far more people are going to be touched by trial courts and police investigations than by Supreme Court decisions. I would not be so arrogant to think that only the Supreme Court matters. More people now know about Aruban law than they ever did before."

4. "... redid her entire face ..."
Not her entire face. She did the wrong part, IMO. ;)

3. You should visit nataleeholloway.net
People there are disgusted about how things like SCOTUS and the space shuttle keep drawing attention away from the one thing that matters - finding Natalee Holloway.

7. "... finding Natalee Holloway."
Task one for that crew is to take a good hard look at the name of the site.

No one FOUND Natalee, so who's to say (besides these yahoos) that she's dead?

My husband can't get past Jug Twitty. Any grown man who'd go by the nickname "Jug", let's just say Billy Carter has nothing on him.

6. My law school really dropped the ball -- no courses in Aruban law!
I'm glad Greta and Faux can so ably fill that gap in my legal education.

8. She's a real peach for supplying the info...
to a hungry American public.

Natalee's story will suffer burnout, like a song from the 80's. People will get sick of hearing about it, and go back to building birdhouses or whatever it was they were doing when the story broke.

9. What the Flying fuck
Aruban law does not exist , dumb fox mignion , 't is dutch law that governs those protectorates ,and euros that blissfully fill them .

Yet the aruban tourist board would like to thanks fox for displaying our pristine white beaches nationwide , and remember ,book now , watch fox later .

sad and tragicfor the girl and her family , but the fact Van susteren needs to exploit it for survival is just goddamn pathetic

they're having a hoot over in amsterdam with all this fox coverage ...maybe it's the free flow of pot .


btw if their suspect killed her , he'll get around five or six years in dutch prison .Which is to say no hangin' the minor this time ....better luck in Cuba .

11. Radical theory on missing girl
Edited on Wed Jul-27-05 08:58 PM by dogonarug
My Sister and her hubby just returned from a cheapo Aruban vacation.
Hubby noticed swarms of aggressive viscous hungry lizards intent on stealing any food present...thus the theory, Aruban lizards can't resist white meat.
