"the Bidens donated a little more than $1,800. Shameful. Absolutely shameful.
Time for the Obowma’s and Biden’s to pay their fair share. After all it’s their patriotic duty to step up to the plate.

Democrats have no idea what shame is. Consider this gem
During that time, the Clintons paid $33.8 million in federal taxes and claimed deductions for $10.2 million in charitable contributions. The contributions went to a family foundation run by the Clintons that has given away only about half of the money they put into it, and most of that was last year, after Mrs. Clinton declared her candidacy.

Guarantee that’s a small fraction of his income and what was owed on taxes.

As expected, the media reports on th Obama tax return when it flatters The One.
Americans might find the Obama's tax returns from recent years enlightening.

Where did they get that kind of money? Oh, I forgot he wrote a couple of books about himself. LOL

So how could Biden afford that estate with a mansion for himself and one for his mother if he can from "humble roots" and makes a fraction of what his boss did? How did he afford the fancy Princeton education for his kid?
And how can he judge anybody given his pathetic lack of charity--especially compared to the last VP and his wife who gave away a small fortune every year?

"the Bidens donated a little more than $1,800. As with liberals, it is much more beneficial to be generous with other people's money.
To: al baby
Most Catholic families give more than that to the church alone, especially if they have a child in parochial school.

With Joe Biden’s effective Fed tax rate of 17%, he should not feel too patriotic. That does not come anything close to his fair share of the tax burden. Why didn’t the Biden’s voluntarily pay more tax since his income classifies them as wealthy?

and that $1800.00 went to...

Well, I can't fault Obama because people were stupid enough to buy his books, and being the only ones in his administration to actually pay their taxes he's setting a nice example. Of course now he could care less if he has to pay three or four times as much in taxes next year, because we taxpayers are footing the bills for his Kobe beef and flying in pizza for lunch.

Somehow the MSM forgets his 2007 and 2006 returns...and their pittance to charity...

While Obama’s giving looked very large, compared to his 2.6 million in earnings, it was still less than 10%. Still, you can see that he got a lot more generous after he started making millions. Prior to that when his earnings were still a phenomenal $200,000+, he gave almost nothing.
