Joe Biden has given away billions to charities! Only, it’s been other people’s money Joe gives. You see as a Democrat HE is the compassionate one! HE demonstrates his compassion by giving away taxpayer (other people’s) money.

The MSM is thoroughly corrupt.

I also read that Biden’s tax returns reflected no evidence of any income from investments. I might be wrong but if I’m right, I find that very strange for a person of his position. I’m wondering if he might have his monies stashed in secret offshore accounts?????? Is that possible?

Liberals don’t want to give their own money to charity. They’d rather steal yours and give it to the government to ‘help’ people.

Astonishing stinginess. Record-setting, in fact.

Meh...he's a piker. I don't give any of my income to charity. Given the amount that's confiscated by the government, I figure I've already done my part.

Now that this woman has been located, how long before Obama locates her and gloms onto her to take credit for her generosity?

He is a putz

Good article, but frustrating. The problem is that no one cares...if it’s Dems/libs who are stingy and hypocritical, well, their hearts are always in the right place so it never matters what they actually do, or don’t do as the case may be.

There is no law that says you have to report your charitable giving on your tax return. It is conceivable that some people might do this in order to obey the Biblical admonition to keep your giving secret.

How can we call Liberals ‘stingy’ when they give their entire lives to public service?

Oseola McCarty, a poorly educated African-American laundry woman in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, gave more to charity in one gift than our Vice-President has given in his lifetime. Last week's release of the Bidens' tax returns reveals a troubling character weakness. Stinginess. Unrelenting shameless stinginess... As April 15 arrived this year, Obama and Biden released their tax returns for 2008. Two observations: Biden is stingy, and Obama only began giving when he knew the public would be watching.

The contrast is surprising, yet unsurprising.

Throw the great Al Gore and his wife in with Joe and his on giving. Al did however explain he gave so much of his valuable time that is made up for his measly $300.00.

So to the Obamas, here's a “Well done!” for continuing to increase their percentage given to charity; however, it is important to note that the Obamas now are only tied for last with President Reagan for the least generous presidents since 1969.

This is flat out false.http://tsfiles.wordpress.com/2008/06/15/charity-donations-and-liberal-hypocricy/

"This evidence of liberal hypocrisy is damning enough, but what really amazes is how poorly these liberals do in comparison to so-called “heartless conservatives.” President Ronald Reagan, for instance, was often called heartless and callous by liberals. Unlike Roosevelt or JFK, Reagan was not a wealthy man when he became president. He had no family trust or investment portfolio to fall back on. And yet, according to his tax returns, Reagan donated more than four times more to charity — both in terms of actual money and on a percentage basis — than Senator Ted Kennedy. And he gave more to charities with less income than FDR did. In 1985, for example, he gave away 6 percent of his income."

I thought I had read somewhere that the Cheney’s donated 80% of their income to charity. Any Freepers out there that can confirm?

How does Biden afford this house with his reported income?

I guess there are no curious reporters.
