He truly is a Kennedy. I can't think of a more Kennedyesque response than the one that Robert Francis 'Bobby' O'Rourke just gave. The Democrat politician, who is the son-in-law of a billionaire, doesn't like giving to charity. But that's okay. He gave at the office. The political office.
Is he sacrificing here or are we sacrificing?
I would think that employing Bobby on the public dime so his billionaire father-in-law doesn't have to, would be our sacrifice. Clearly the lefty message about Americans subsidizing billionaires has a point when it comes to Bobby.
Beto O'Rourke defended his meager rate of charitable giving on Tuesday night, saying that he doesn't report all of his donations to the IRS and in any case, he contributes in other ways through his work in politics.
"I've served in public office since 2005. I do my best to contribute to the success of my community, my state and now, of my country. There are ways that I do this that are measurable. And there are ways that I do this that are immeasurable," he said.
The breathaking arrogance of this isn't just Kennedyesque, it's Obamaesque. This man doesn't have to give to charity. Running for office is his great act of charity. To us. The little people.
Bobby O'Rourke's contributions are "immeasurable". Don't even try measuring them. There isn't a microscope small enough.
Me too. I love the way Tucker played all the glowing praise for Beto from the media and then looked at us through the camera and said, “and that was LAST WEEK”.
When Tucker is good he is very, very good. Greenfield is just brilliant.
Well, he did give up his careers as an unsuccessful live-in nanny and unsuccessful punk band member to pursue public service...
In other words, we should feel honored that he’s offered himself in service to us... (Gawd, I just threw up in my mouth!)
There was a guy who used to come to karaoke at my bar, and his explanation for only tipping a quarter was that his singing (or so he believed) brought in customers.
His very prescence on this Earth is more than enough of a gift to the people.
Beta by name, beta by nature
This stupid little faggot from South Bend is taking all the air out of his young guy campaign
How very communist of him.
Blue Ribbon, World Class, Industrial strength arrogance!
That’s not good for Mayor Peter. You know how those Irish guys are.
Com’on now...his charitable giving is 100% in line with democrat policy. Charity isn’t required anymore, you all know that, that’s what government is there for. No surprises here...move along...
