Hil, Rupert sly as Fox at fund-raiser

Two of the most public people in the world had a chummy breakfast yesterday, but media mogul Rupert Murdoch and Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) tried to keep their political get-together as secret as possible.
There were no Fox News cameras to record the odd couple breaking bread together at Murdoch's News Corp. headquarters in midtown, where, after years of attacking her, the conservative Murdoch hosted a fund-raiser for Clinton's Democratic Senate campaign.

The campaign refused to even confirm the time or location of the controversial fund-raiser. No estimate of the take or number of people who attended was released.

New York's junior senator did not make an appearance on "Fox and Friends" on her way out of the building just after 10a.m. She didn't even go through the News Corp. lobby, slipping out a side door onto W.48th St., where the CBS show "Without a Trace" was filming up the block.

5. STOP Hillary in 2008! Destroy the Bush/Clinton Partnership forever!
This little love fest between the Bush and Clintons needs to be completely destroyed and that means doing everything i our power to see these two families removed from the halls of our government. Hillary MUST go.

13. It will for a while...
And when they do resume it, it will take some of the effect it had away! Hillary can always remind people that Murdoch supported her reelection.
