"This is more than just a stockholder with shares....Alwaleed is working directly with Murdoch...and Alwaleed’s donation to the 9/11 Terrorist Shrine is very troubling....and Murdoch needs to dump all ties with his Suadi friend.

How does he do that, exactly? We have a free market that allows for private investors to purchase stock in an open exchange. How does Murdoch demand that Alwaleed divest himself of all Newscorp holdings.

When you are the single largest non-controlling shareholder, you're going to get some attention vis-a-vis a working relationship - a partnership. Why? Because you ARE a partner. That's just the way public companies work - always have, and always will.

Tim wasn't doing any of what he did in the name of God or his religion.

Islamos do all it in the name of allah.

Ron Paul is a jerk. Let’s just hope that Rand Paul is really different from his father, as he seems to be.

Can’t conservatives find someone to run against this one, sore, protruding An_s?

[Deb]

Wow! That’s a great point. McVeigh would have been closer to Ron Paul than any other politician.

[Little Ray]

IIRC, McVeigh was an atheist.

Keep talking RP...your flock deserves the embarrassment.

Great Photo of a typical Ron Paul supporter!!!!

I still remember the sketch of “John Doe #2”. Looked pretty swarthy to me.

[Deb]

Westboro isn’t a church. Its one family and they have nothing to do with Christianity, the Bible or God. The Dad even supported Al Gore.

[MrB]

John Doe #2 was Jose Padilla, a Muslim that was captured later. The gov't never admitted the connection though.

[MortMan]

Should we consider that Christianity does not call the faithful to murder in its name?

[Chunga]

What an idiot!

[CynicalBear]

McVeigh was a self avowd atheist. He made the statement many times that his only religion was science. Should we blame it on scientists?

[arthurus]

Christianity had nothing at all to đo with McVey's actions. Islam had everything to do with the Moslems' actions at the Twin Towers.That is even discounting McVeys contacts and interactions with Moslems prior to his deed.

[arthurus]

Islamic terrorism is done by people following the tenants of their faith,

How many people are renting the Islamic faith? I think most or all of Moslems are owners, actual believers in the tenets of Islam.

I really did try to give paul the benefit of the doubt in the past, but that man is proving with each utterance that he is so far beyond rational he couldn’t even see find it on a star chart.

The only reason crazy uncle ron is given time in the media is his iron clad guarantee of making those who are even remotely connected with the GOP look like paulistinian kooks by association.

[Deb]

And judging by their collected letters, the regular German Army members were very dedicated Christians. There are several books of the letters to their wives and mothers and they break your heart.

Also, remember the Christmas Eve break in fighting? Even though, I think, it was WWl both British and German soldiers came out of their foxholes to celebrate Christmas. An extraordinary war story.

"Let’s just hope that Rand Paul is really different from his father, as he seems to be."

We'll see. Soon the wheat that is the actually policy, will be separated from the rhetoric that is the campaign. While Paul took a more "hawkish" stance during the campaign, especially after his foreign policy came under some attack, there are quotes from Rand where he describes his father's foreign policy positions as not very different from his own. That's troubling.

While we won't know for sure what will happen until it happens, I suspect shortly after Rand is installed in office, he'll reveal himself to be just as "peculiar" as his old man, and a real problem for our military and Israel. It's one thing to be a lone voice in a chamber of 435 members, it's quite another to be a Senator, especially if that Senator gets a seat on the Armed Services, Foreign Relations or Appropriations committee(s).

You're a liar or so ignorant you have no ability to Google. News Corp, which owns FOX News bought part of a stake in Rotana, a mideast media conglomerate.

Your post is 100% crap.
