Always the opportunist and never a philanthropist unless there's something it it for him, Fox News mogul Rupert Murdoch has once again jumped from one bandwagon to another, and Hillary Clintion is the donkey with the brass ring in her nose.
Word is out that the old-timer, Rupert, is planning to host a fundraiser for the other old timer, Hillary, to help fill her campaign coffers. And why not?

That's all.
Murdoch is a prime supplier of salacious cheesecake entertainment and a serial adulterer.
No serious person could ever have imagined him to be a principled conservative.
I posted this on urbanelephants.com about two months ago and nobody believed me. However, I wonder what Podhoretz et al will say about this. I heard about this from Drudge on his Sunday evening show.
