Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
While the “atheist” Brad Pitt has for years given many of his millions to help the poor and has built things...
The atheist Willard Romney hasnt given a penny...
and hasnt built anything...
Who is closer to the Christian ideal here ???
Romney gave $3 million to charity just last year. In keeping with the Mormon faith he gives at least ten percent of income every year.

We are “to feed the hungry, to clothe the naked, to provide for the widow, to dry up the tear of the orphan, to comfort the afflicted, whether in this church, or in any other, or in no church at all…”
Joseph Smith, “Times and Seasons,” March 15, 1842
This must be "Post Nonsense Day" around here.
Perhaps Pitt just makes more of a show of what he does while Romney does his charity quietly.
(Not defending him. I don’t know his record in that regard.)
Mr. Romney probably gave more $$$ last month than Obama, Biden and Bill Clinton gave to charities in the last five years combined, Mitt just doesn't boast about what he gives.
Mitt Romney has built plenty. Did you do ANY research prior to making your claims?
In pertinent part, emphases added:
"In 2010, the largest beneficiaries of the Tyler Charitable Foundation included the Mormon Church ($145,000), the Friends of George W. Bush Library ($100,000), and the Center for Treatment of Pediatric MS ($75,000). However, the foundation also made contributions to organizations including the US Equestrian Team Foundation ($10,000), Harvard Business School ($10,000), and Homes for Our Troops ($20,000).
"In past years, some of Romney’s contributions have gone to conservative groups such as the Heritage Foundation, the Becket Fund (for religious rights legal aid), and the Federalist Society, which seeks reform of the current legal system. In 2007, he wrote a check to Citizens for Limited Taxation, a Marblehead, Mass., organization that strives to limit taxes and the size of government."
Of course, I recognize that FR's official policy is to ensure that Romney is defeated in November. See tag.
A vote for Romney negates some other voter’s ballot for Obama.
