HERE'S HOW WE ORDINARY PEOPLE PASS THE TIME IN SUMMER...
Only those people who have been out of touch for the past week may not have heard that the British tabloid newspaper owned by the Rupert Murdoch family is shutting down after disclosures proved that illegal phone hacking had become routine procedure in investigating stories. James Murdock, the top official at News Corp. made the announcement. America’s Fox News is part of the Murdock corporate news giant.

I will continue to be wary (and weary) of the clap-trap that comes out of Murdock propaganda machines. Murdock only the 33rd richest man in the world, won’t have to adjust his life style, however. As a resident of New York instead of London, he and his family enjoy the great tax benefits established during the Bush years for America’s super rich. In negotiations with the Obama Administration as the nation approaches the deadline for adjusting debt ceiling, Republicans in Congress say they are determined to continue these tax breaks for the wealthy. Go figure!
... but our jewels don't cost much.
