3. Yes, it is so well known that Fox News uses this photo on their
letterhead! Do you really, really think most people are aware of this fact? I sure don't. And I think it will be of interest to many of them.

4. It's perfectly natural to receive ones news through the prism of House of Saud!
I question the motive of the OP for pointing out this perfectly irrelevant bit of trivia!

6. 'La La La, Can't Hear You!', 'La La La, Can't Hear You!'
Willful ignorance is the concrete wall beneath the scalp of those who see nothing wrong with this scenario. That's the purpose behind reiteration of inconvenient truths such as RW Saudi funding of RW media moguls...and I don't need six question marks to make my point.

2. This guy?
Edited on Sun Jul-10-11 08:58 AM by Chan790


He looks like an ethnic stereotype of gaudy westernized Arabic wealth. I particularly love the fact he has not one, but TWO, solid gold wastepaper bins at arm's reach. There is nothing not rococo and decadent about this guy.

Edit: I wish I had a 747 to fly me around on a throne.
