What did the Obama’s give to Charity?

Slow Joe and wife gave 1800.

But he was a member of the Royal 100 Club so how can he make that money when Royals in the club are not suppose to work outside the Royal Club?

[nmh]

Will he be “spreading his wealth around”?

Or hiding it?

BTW, what happened to his 130 million he raised?

Where did that go? He was the most well funded candidate in U.S. history.

LOL You're a bit harsh.

How about if there were a regulatory bureaucracy to which they were required to provide detailed documentation, with full public disclosure (call it "Cash Check" perhaps), that they had satisfied some mandatory benchmarks which would prove they truly earned and deserved to keep the $500,000?

What did he donate to Charity?? better than 1%

[KarinG1]

What did they pay in taxes?

I was wondering the same thing. Why was that information left out of the article and where can I find it? Surely somebody here knows how to find out.

[KarinG1]

I found it. They got a $26,014 refund. Apparently they had somehow overpaid that much by pre-paying $881,337. That’s not an insignificant chunk of change.

Socialists are the ultimate Capitalists only when it comes to themselves but they want the 99.9999% of the remaining population to live all equally poor and totally depending on government handouts for survival and in return they vote the socialists in power so the socialists will keep living like Capitalists.

Socialists and liberals are the biggest hypocrites on the planet.

There was a report here last year that she got a pay raise at her hospital board job, after hubby earmarked money from the federal budget for the hospital. If common folks did that, we be investigated and jailed.

You have just described a felony punishable by fines and prison time.

[nufsed]

if committed by you and me.

"It's also far less than the Obamas made the previous year. In 2007, they made $4.2 million."

That explains those hideous clothes she wears,and the need for a garden. One has to comprimise you know, have to save up for Chicago Pizza.
