According to Forbes, Warren Buffet is worth $50 Billion while Rupert Murdoch is about 7 times ‘poorer’ at a net worth of ‘just’ $7.6 Billion.

Just info for anyone interested to know.

How Forbes comes up with these figure is something I’d like to know...

Hey Buffet you are the one that made this an issue. Why drag someone else in. Just release yours and then shut the hell up.......

You are 100% correct. I missed "just a few words" from the statement by George Wills...which he repeated this past Sunday.

Buffett knows that as an owner of broadcast outlets Murdoch is subject to a lot of regulations.

If Rupert releases his tax returns somebody somewhere will use the information to fuel a campaign against him.

So what Warren's really saying is, "No, I won't release my tax returns, though I'll make it sound like a good faith offer to do so to the rubes and dupes."

That "stupid senile old fart" is dumb as a fox. He knows how to give non-answers, evasive answers, high-sounding evil answers and sleight-of-hand-distraction answers.

He didn't get where he is by being stupid and not out-foxing his business marks.

And Obama wouldn't be using this multi-billionaire as a national spokesman if he thought the man was senile. Obama is no dummy, either. Both have street smarts along with their twisted ideologues.
